Exploring Evolution: Molecular Insights and Protein Comparison

This lecture delves into the exploration of evolution, covering topics such as enzymes, DNA models, phylogenetic trees, molecular evolution, and protein comparisons. It discusses the work of Nobel laureates in chemistry related to evolution experiments. The presentation includes the theory of natural selection, DNA mutations, and the construction of phylogenetic trees based on sequences. The lecture also explores the stages of molecular evolution, the alignment of protein sequences, and the development of therapeutic molecules through molecular evolution. Examples of protein comparisons, evolutionary tree constructions, and the evolution of RNA molecules are provided to illustrate key concepts.
