Synthesizing With the Fish...

To help you further your study of Molecular Genetics aka: DNA Replication, aka: Protein Synthesis (my, my there are a lot of names for this life process!), Mrs. Fish welcome you to visit the following websites below.

Some are small videos with animations on the double helix unraveling and the role of enzymes during DNA Replication. Others links have wonderful interactive features that test your abilities in recognizing DNA base pairs to complementary base pairs for m-RNA sequencing during transcription and also give you a visual as to how t-RNA transports the Amino Acids to the Ribosome, and builds up long chains of polypeptides.

This one is excellent at testing yourself on the various enzymes involved in DNA replication.

Have Fun with this Transcription game on Molecular Genetics

Also have some fun with this Transcription and Translation Game – very interactive and positive reinforcement when you get a sequence right!
