Molecular evolution is the process of evolution at the scale of DNA, RNA, and proteins. It emerged as a field of study in the 1960s as scientists sought to understand recent discoveries on the structure and function of nucleic acids and protein.

Paper by Anthonie W J Muller proposing a theory that organisms can use or may have used thermal cycling as an energy source, for example in volcanic hot springs, as an evolutionary step towards photosynthesis.
Our lab studies the molecular evolution of algae and protist and the origin of introns. Rutgers University.
Part of the ExPASy Molecular Biology Server, this extensive list includes almost exclusively pointers to information sources for life scientists with an interest in biological macromolecules.
Information from Wikipedia on the emergence of this field of study following the rise of molecular biology and the advent of protein sequencing. The differences between homologous sequences can be used as a molecular clock to estimate the time since the last common ancestor.
