DNA can be used to detect diseases, improve crops, or catch criminals. The information in DNA sequences has been harnessed for a multitude of tasks, but how is DNA put to work? Through interactive multimedia activities you can explore some of the applications of DNA technology and discover the many ways these uses may affect your life.
An excellent narrated animation of the processes involved in biological productive nanosystems, here visualizing the molecular biology's most central "dogma". The video is based on scientific data describing molecular structure and function, showing animations of DNA coiling, replication, transcription and translation. It was created by Drew Berry of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research.
This exercise is designed to accompany an introduction to DNA structure from an introductory biology class. Rather than relying on 2D drawings of DNA in a textbook, you will use molecular visualization software to explore the double helical structure of DNA in 3D, make measurements, and look at views that emphasize special features of the structure.
Every protein molecule of an organism is synthesized by that organism in a prescribed process. This activity helps students understand the fundamental life process of making protein. Tagged as protein, synthesis, ribosomes, rna, dna, amino, acid,
DNA Structure and Function DNA stands fordeoxyribonucleic acid . DNA is pretty unusual in that it is about the only common molecule capable of directing its own synthesis. The processes of mitosis and meiosis were discovered in the 1870s and 1890s.
This text is divided into seven major sections: Organization of Genetic Material Semiconservative Nature of DNA Synthesis The Chemistry of DNA Synthesis The Proteins of DNA Synthesis DNA repair Properties of the Three Major RNA Species. RNA Synthesis Reasons for organization. There are large amounts.
