A collection of 3D animations explaining key biological concepts and technologies.
This 3D animation shows how proteins are made in the cell from the information in the DNA code.
In the Cell
This 3D animation shows you how DNA is copied in a cell. It shows how both strands of the DNA helix are unzipped and copied to produce two identical DNA molecules.
This 3D animation shows the basic steps in the method of DNA sequencing that was used during the Human Genome Project.
Methods and Technology
This 3D animation gives a simple overview of next generation DNA sequencing, known as massively parallel sequencing.
An animation showing the process of DNA extraction. This is used by scientists who want to study DNA.
This animation shows the steps in the polymerase chain reaction that scientists use to make lots of copies of a DNA sample.
This animation shows the steps for running an electrophoresis gel and explains how this gel works to separate DNA fragments.
