DNA to Protein Synthesis

Get involved in learning with highly interactive and engaging science activities. It’s all about doing and becoming an active participant in your own learning. The time is now, so get started and see where it takes you.

To help a team of scientists that have fallen ill, you must find an antibiotic that’s effective against the disease-causing bacterium. To do so, you’ll need to study the process of protein synthesis and learn how antibiotics prevent protein production in bacteria.

• Manipulate an interactive DNA model.
• Explore the process of protein synthesis.
• Identify the part of the cell where amino acids are assembled into proteins.
• Pair the bases in nucleic acids.
• Learn how to use a codon table.
• Review the details of transcription and translation.
