Abstract
Life involves transmission and transformation of the information that is either stored within the genome or acquired from the environment. Genetic information is a basic factor necessary to construct and manage a living organism. The molecular processes in living cells are responsible for transformation of the genetic information into physical reality. The aim of biochemistry and molecular biology is to obtain insight into the finest details of these processes and to understand the underlying logic of life. However, the answers obtained in laborious, slow and costly research process are often far from being complete.
