The MIT Edgerton Center DNA/RNA and Protein Sets were specifically designed to demonstrate key concepts in cellular biology. The models are made to be manipulated so they can kinesthetically teach cellular processes that are difficult to understand, such as replication, transcription, and translation. The models also teach multiple levels of DNA and protein structure, including protein folding and how it determines protein function. The lessons are easily adjusted for different learning levels and we have new advanced lessons for both DNA and proteins. BPS high school teachers will have access to a set to use within their buildings.
