With BioBits® cell-free systems, students visualize
biological concepts in ways never before possible. Watch DNA make RNA and
protein in real time—then, in a separate activity, directly investigate the
relationship between amino acid sequence and protein structure and function. All
in a visual, engaging format that is quick and easy and requires minimal
equipment—ideal for distance learning.
TAKEAWAYS:
1. Students can visualize the flow of genetic information from DNA to protein using BioBits cell-free technology
2. Fluorescence can illuminate how DNA makes RNA makes protein in what is known as the Central Dogma of Molecular Biology
3. Students can identify and manipulate the steps of transcription and translation in guided inquiry experimentds
