Right handed DNA
Well it seems that this comic explains why DNA, Collagen and alpha helix are all right handed.
Take a look at Madeline’s comic page you can find other funny scientific comics.
DNA
One of the great advantages of the growth of internet especially for scientists is the amount of freely available resources that one can find. Many of these resources are freely available for non commercial and educational purposes, like the valuable power point goldmine I introduced here!
When I was doing my bachelor so many online resources were not
available and I do remember that even an important database like Medline was
not freely available (you could buy them on CD’s) as it is now in PubMed. I’ll share the useful pages I find or I’m using in this weblog so that the friends and colleagues can also use them. If you find them useful or know other resources please leave a comment.
- DNA Interactive is a page with valuable information for students and teachers. I’m sure you’ll enjoy going through the pages. You can go to the players section to watch interviews with scientists in each research area.
- DNA from the beginning is another useful page for students and those want to learn about DNA.
