This hands-on activity allows you to create your own paper model of a DNA double helix. DNA has a ‘double helix’ structure. Much like a spiral staircase, it ...
26 wrz 2023 · DNA Origami. Step-by-step instructions and printable folding paper included in the downloadable document. You may recognize DNA as one of the most well-known biological structures.
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.
Using the blank DNA origami template 1. Lay out the blank DNA origami template on the table. Designed by Alex Bateman (2003) 2. Start by writing the fi rst letter of your DNA sequence (A,T, G or C) in the top right corner. 3. Continue your sequence down the column on the right. 4. Write the corresponding bases in boxes
ORIGAMI DNA Folding instructions 1/1 yourgenome.org Note: All folds should have a thin line on the inside and a thick line on the outside. Fold in half lengthwise. Make all creases as firm as possible (use your fingernail!) Fold the white edge without letters up. Repeat for all segments. Hold the paper so that the thick lines are diagonal and
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".
Starting at the top, start to fold, twist, and compress the DNA until it folds onto itself. Enjoy your own DNA! Step 4 - Fold long edge Fold the left edge without the logo with a crisp sharp fold at 90 degrees. Fold Fold old old Diagonal lines should be in this direction Flip the paper and fold remaining edge.
