Lab-Aids: DNA/RNA Protein Synthesis Modeling Kit (for 8 Groups)

This kit containut has the same activities as kit 72 but has materials for 8 groups rather than 12

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.

Following step-by-step directions, students will:

Build and replicate an eight-rung DNA molecule
Use half the DNA ladder to build mRNA (messenger RNA)
Simulate mRNA movement by placing the mRNA on a ribosome
Simulate translation by matching the mRNA and its codons to the tRNA (transfer RNA) and its anti-codons
Disconnect the protein chain so the process can continue

Scientific Concepts:

Demystifies the DNA/RNA connection in protein synthesis
Replication, transcription and translation is modeled
Experience how information stored in DNA is expressed as a finished protein

Content List:

1 Teacher's Guide
24 Student Worksheets and Guides, Part I and II
12 Packets of color-coded model components containing: 36 white tubes, 10 Adenine (orange tubes), 3 Amino acids with R group, 8 Cytosine (blue tubes), 36 Deoxyribose sugars (black), 8 Guanine (yellow tubes), 18 Hydrogen bonds (white rods), 2 Peptide bonds (gray tubes), 9 Ribose sugars (purple), 1 Ribosome, 10 Thymine (green tubes), 3 tRNA (purple), 5 Uracil (purple tubes)
