Sommario/riassunto

What about molecular immunology? Strictly speaking , is it the study of molecules of the immune system and their interactions? Without a doubt. An important part of immunology is concerned with receptors and their ligands, and the transmission of signals from the surface of cells to their nucleus. It is today one of the fields of biology where we can best see how molecular aggregates assemble and dissociate in highly specific combinatorics. But it is not this restrictive view that I retain. Molecular immunology is not a specialized area of ​​immunology. It designates, on the contrary, the inclusion of immunology in the movement of molecular biology; which, in fact, widens the framework.
