gib65 Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 I've been listening to a series of audio lectures on replication and DNA. It's really cool stuff. But since it's audio only, I fail to get a good visual picture of some the - very complicated - processes. So I'm searching through the net for some good animations, particularly about ribosoms (sp?) and how they synthesize proteins out of RNA. Anyone know of any cool animations?

I don't think it's limited to DNA, but if you spend about 10 minutes getting familiar with the below site I think you'll find some uber cool animations and models: http://www.umass.edu/microbio/chime/pe_beta/pe/protexpl/frntdoor.htm
muchado Posted August 15, 2007 Posted August 15, 2007 Here is another source... http://www.wehi.edu.au/education/wehi-tv/dna/index.html You will find neat animations here on replications, transcription, and translation. There is one animation of the cell that is completely mind blowing. I think this is the best animation I have seen to this date. Makes you just fall in love. This is totally perfect to show in introductory classes in college and in high school. http://aimediaserver.com/studiodaily/harvard/harvard.swf Hope you enjoy it. Thanks to the harvard folks who conceived it.
