MIT OpenCourseWare's graduate-level introduction to molecular biology, covering the molecular mechanisms of gene expression, replication, and cellular regulation. It is an archived OCW course with lecture materials from its 2005 spring offering.
Commenter calls it well-organized and a great use of time for learning the field, though not focused on the latest topics.

The standard way to learn this stuff is a course/textbook followed by reading the important papers. I recommend https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/biology/7-28-molecular-biology-s...: it is well-organized and a great use of time, even though it doesn't get into the latest most exciting topics.
If you just want an overview of what's going on, I curated these links for you. For each, focus on the main idea and why it is significant for accomplishing biological goals.
