DNA , RNA Protein Synthesis Kit

Demystify the DNA/RNA connection in protein synthesis. This hands-on modeling approach makes the complex chemistry of DNA/RNA protein synthesis easily understood! The kit includes twelve packets of color-coded molecular model components.Γõ¼├í

Following step-by-step directions, students will:Γõ¼├í
╬ô├ò┬¬ Build and replicate an eight-rung DNA moleculeΓõ¼├í
╬ô├ò┬¬ Use half the DNA ladder to build mRNA (messenger RNA)Γõ¼├í
╬ô├ò┬¬ Simulate mRNA movement by placing the mRNA on a ribosomeΓõ¼├í
╬ô├ò┬¬ Simulate translation by matching the mRNA and its codons to the tRNA (transfer RNA) and its anti-codonsΓõ¼├í
ΓÕª Disconnect the protein chain so the process can continue
