Learn how to find molecular models, determine which structure to view, display structures in different ways, add annotations, and compare one structure with another. Learning genetics and biochemistry is much easier when you can really see how mutations change the shapes of structures. Engaging activities help you learn and practice what you've learned.

This Excel file has the answer key for BLASTing through the kingdom of life. BLASTing through the kingdom of life is accompanied by a popular animated tutorial and a data set of 16 different sequences chosen to represent diverse forms of life. This activity is perfect for studying evolution and looking at evolutionary relationships. As Genbank grows, every year the amount of sequence data increases. Consequently, the results for using this data set in BLAST, change every year too. These results were last checked and updated on March 6th, 2009. Key words: BLAST, bioinformatics, blastn, 'sequence analysis', 'DNA sequences'

This learning activity is designed to help students explore the structure of the nucleotides in DNA. Students work with annotated molecular structures of guanine, cytosine, adenine, and thymine. They identify the phosphate group, the deoxyribose sugar, and the base. This package includes the following items:

  • 1). Molecular structure files containing guanine and cytosine, adenine and thymine, and double-stranded DNA.
  • 2). Instructions
  • 3). Worksheets
  • 4). An answer key
  • 5). User-friendly molecular modeling software (Cn3D 4.1) for Mac OS X.
