Gene Switches
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how genetic switches function and the role of genetic switches in the process of evolution.
Reading DNA
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use edible models of the DNA molecule to transcribe an mRNA sequence, and then translate it into a protein.
DNA Jewelry Models
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a model of DNA to better understand the structure of DNA and protein synthesis.
DNA and Histone Model
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a 3-D paper model depicting how histone, acetyl and methyl molecules control access to DNA and affect gene DNA expression.
Have Your DNA and Eat It Too
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build edible models of DNA, while learning basic DNA structure and the rules of base pairing.
Gel Electrophoresis
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners simulate the process of DNA fingerprinting by using electricity to separate colored dyes.
Protein Factory
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners take on the role of various parts of the cell in order to model the process of protein synthesis.
