How Do Viruses Recognize a Target Cell?
Source Institutions
This activity demonstrates the specificity of viral vectors for target cells in gene therapy delivery methods using two approaches: 1) STYROFOAM® models demonstrate viral ligand binding to receptor pr

Pom Pom Potential
Source Institutions
In this kinesthetic activity, learners move pom-pom "ions" across a membrane to simulate how an action potential is propagated along an axon.

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 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.
