Abstract
Molecular biology of sports is a rapidly evolving field that investigates the
relationship between genetic and molecular factors and athletic performance. Research
in this area aims to identify genes and molecules influencing physical traits such as
strength, endurance, and speed. By understanding the underlying biology of athletic
performance, scientists can develop new approaches to improve athletic training, injury
prevention, and rehabilitation. The study of molecular biology in sports also provides
insights into the relationship between genetics and lifestyle factors, such as diet and
exercise, that affect overall health and well-being. This abstract will provide an
overview of the current state of research in molecular biology of sports, including
recent advances in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, and how
these techniques are applied to sports science.
