An interactive introduction to genetic engineering -- Introduce students to genetic engineering - one of the hottest and most controversial of all science topics - with this CD-ROM. -- Students repair DNA, RNA, and protein sequences and see if the changes are inheritable. They use restriction enzymes and the enzyme DNA ligase to produce recombinant DNA. They “import†normal and mutant DNA sequences from the Human Genome Database website and analyze them. -- Everything from DNA and RNA base pairings to basic genetic engineering techniques is covered. The interactive glossary explains all terminology specific to molecular biology in a clear, concise manner. -- Minimum requirements: Mac: System 7.1 or higher, 8 MB RAM, Quicktime 2.1 or higher, Sound Manager 3.2. Win: 3.1 or higher, 486 or higher, 8 MB RAM, Quicktime 2.12 or higher, CD-ROM drive, sound capabilities. |
