DNA Genetic Flow Kit - Central Dogma

The Central Dogma of Biology makes sense when your students can make it happen right before their eyes. Don’t be surprised if someone blurts “Now I get it!” while using this kit.  Identify essential enzymes like helicase and polymerase  Model replication of the leading and lagging strands of DNA Explore transcription as they copy one strand of DNA into mRNA using an RNA polymerase Engage in translation/protein synthesis as they decode the mRNA into protein on the ribosome placemat Reenact the different results of the Meselson and Stahl experiments Kit comes with durable color-coded foam nucleotides, tRNAs, placemats, and more, which allow students to model DNA replication, transcription of DNA into RNA, and translation of RNA into proteins Addresses challenging concepts such as DNA strand directionality, anti-parallel structure, leading/lagging strands, and implications of encoded proteins due to changes in the DNA code.
