Material Detail
DNA Structure
A 3-dimensional, interactive, animated nonlinear tutorial on the structure of DNA. The user can choose among several views and/or display the various components of the DNA molecule in 3-D! Illustrates the double helix, hydrogen bonds, base pairing. Zooms in to single base pairs. Animations simulate replication, identify codons, complementary mRNA sequences, and amino acids coded for. Also highlighted: backbone traces, antiparallel strands,...

Jim Bidlack (Faculty)
This site is very good for learning about the structure of DNA.
Technical Remarks:
There are no technical requirements.
Anil Kapoor (Faculty)
great site to show parts of DNA structure. I spend 30 minutes on the site and plan to use it during my biology lectures
Hsueh-Yung Chen (Student)
This is a good website for the teacher to show the students that the 3D structure of DNA. I spent about 20 minutes reviewing this site. I could use this to teach the topic of DNA structure in a Living Environment class. The students can be benefit from the model by fully understanding the structure of DNA. nitrogen bases pairing, double helix, etc.
