This hands-on activity allows you to create your own paper model of a DNA double helix. This activity explores the structure of DNA in a paper-based form. You can also use the blank version to explore the pairing rules of DNA, by colouring in each base pair using the pairing rules printout.
26 wrz 2023 · You may recognize DNA as one of the most well-known biological structures. But what better way to understand the actual twists, turns and rules of base-pairing than to make you own 3D origami model? DNA origami is based upon a design created by Alex Bateman of EMBL-EBI.
DNA origami is the nanoscale folding of DNA to create arbitrary two- and three-dimensional shapes at the nanoscale. The specificity of the interactions between complementary base pairs make DNA a useful construction material, through design of its base sequences. [ 2 ]
This hands-on activity allows you to create your own paper model of a DNA double helix. DNA has a ‘double helix’ structure.
Origami DNA. Produced by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, this practical activity allows students to create an origami model of DNA, demonstrating its double helix structure. The activity provides a hands-on way of learning about the structure of DNA.
24 sty 2024 · A classic model by Thoki Yenn, folded by me, probably around 2017. DNA Replication is my variant of this design. Tags: biology, chemistry, Deoxyribonucleic acid, double helix, strand.
Origami DNA model. Adapted from Yen, T., 1995, Make your own DNA. Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 20: 94. Folds for your DNA model. Mountain fold. Solid lines are “mountains” and are to be folded away from you with the peak pointing towards you. Making your DNA model. 1. Fold all solid lines going lengthwise down the page into "mountain folds".
