MIT Edgerton Center | Biology Sets: Biotechnology Pack
With the Biotechnology Pack, students use the DNA models to visualize and explore these basic concepts: restriction enzyme digestion, gel electrophoresis, PCR, DNA sequencing, and CRISPR-Cas9.

This set has all three kits (DNA/RNA, Protein, and tRNA). The students will be able to complete protein synthesis – transcribing a gene into mRNA, translating the mRNA into a protein chain, and folding the protein chain into a functional shape.
In this set, the students can explore DNA and RNA nucleotide structure, practice both simple and advanced versions of replication, model mRNA transcription, and learn about DNA damage, mutations, repair, and more.
The Protein Sets offer students the ability to build and fold proteins, to learn about hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions, to demonstrate all four levels of protein structure, and to create models of proteins they know like insulin, antibodies, and more.
