Esta vía proporciona una descripción general de los plásmidos recombinantes y cómo se pueden modificar para introducir nuevos rasgos en un organismo. Esta vía puede apoyar a ABE Labs 2, 2a, 3, 4 y 4a.
Esta vía ayudará a los alumnos a comprender mejor el papel fundamental que desempeñan las células bacterianas como fábricas de producción de proteínas en el proceso de clonación de genes. Los procesos de fisión binaria, transcripción y traducción son todos esenciales para este papel y se exploran en detalle aquí. Para aquellos que utilizan esta vía como parte de Amgen Biotech Experience, esta vía es una buena compañera para ABE Lab 5.
Esta vía es una revisión de la estructura de las proteínas y cómo se fabrican dentro de las células durante el proceso de ingeniería genética. Esta vía es un buen compañero para ABE Lab 6.
Esta vía describe el proceso de ingeniería genética con un enfoque en la clonación de genes. Esta vía también proporciona una introducción a la serie de laboratorios ABE.
Las micropipetas son herramientas que permiten a los científicos medir y utilizar
volúmenes muy pequeños de líquido en el rango de microlitros a mililitros. Este
interactivo presenta las partes de una micropipeta y el uso adecuado de esta
herramienta en el laboratorio.
Spreadsheets Across the Curriculum module. Students build spreadsheets to model the growth in population of a species of birds introduced to an isolated island in New Zealand.
This activity is a step by step lesson to introduce a nature journal to students. We will establish the routine we will use.
This scrollable introduces the concept that cells can communicate via signaling molecules in a process called cell signaling. Communication between cells can lead to a variety of changes in the cell, from alterations to its growth, structure or metabolism. When cell signaling pathways don’t function properly, disease can result.
This activity is a lab where students learn to classify objects that are similar into groups and technically describe their classifications. Introduction to dichotomous keys.
This interactive introduces how mistakes in the genome can cause disease. The gene editing tool CRISPR-Cas9 can correct these mistakes and potentially cure disease.
This pathway provides an overview of recombinant plasmids and how they can be modified to introduce new traits into an organism. This pathway can support ABE Labs 2, 2a, 3, 4 and 4a.
This pathway outlines the process of genetic engineering with a focus on gene cloning. This pathway also provides an introduction for the ABE lab series.
This pathway outlines how genetic information is added to cells in the technique called transformation. This pathway also supports ABE Lab 5.
This pathway will help learners better understand the critical role that bacterial cells play as protein production factories in the process of gene cloning. The processes of binary fission, transcription and translation are all essential for this role and are explored in detail here. For those using this pathway as part of the Amgen Biotech Experience, this pathway is a good companion to ABE Lab 5.
CRISPR-Cas9 is a groundbreaking gene editing tool with the promise to cure diseases, improve agriculture, and revolutionize environmental engineering. This pathway introduces the CRISPR-Cas9 mechanism, which is applied to disrupt a gene to confer HIV resistance of human immune cells.
In this inquiry investigation, students will observe unknown tissue samples and draw them in their science notebooks. They will work in groups to present and defend a classification scheme for the unknown tissues to the class, and then use textbooks as a reference to compare their scheme to the accepted classification system.
This activity is a field investigation where students will learn the importance of detail when nature journaling.
This activity is a field investigation where students will learn the importance of detail when nature journaling.
The microscopic world is full of phenomena very different from what we see in everyday life. Some of those phenomena can only be explained using quantum mechanics. This activity introduces basic quantum mechanics concepts about electrons that are essential to understanding modern and future technology, especially nanotechnology. Start by exploring probability distribution, then discover the behavior of electrons with a series of simulations.
This activity is a project in which students research keystone species and report on specific species to the class.
