Molecular Visualizations of DNA

Back


Amazing CGI visualization of molecular biology's central dogma. It shows animations of DNA coiling, replication, transcription and translation.
It was created by Drew Berry of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research

Can you send me this video? Because I would like show this vidoe to my students on my lesson. Thanks.

just download the program called "get tube" you can then download youtube videos yourself.

Sigh... this is no reason to believe in a God. It's a mechanical process that doesn't indicate any divine design at all.

Let's just appreciate it for what it is and leave religion out of it.

You believe what you want, others believe what they want; and everything is peachy.

If I understand this correctly, the section that starts at 5:46 is where cloning can be done, correct? We just feed it the proper RNA sequence, and out pops the building blocks of the clone. Am I at least close?

Great video by the way. Thanks for putting it in terms people can understand (except for a few that posted below me, lol)

oh yes.. false teaching... wanna talk about that some more? or maybe false interpretation? followed by false teaching??

While I understand that the video is a teaching method using computer animation based on molecular research.

But.

The video is showing that all this happens by itself as if it is a living thing.

So how does it actualy happen in reality?


What mechanism drives it?

not sure if i replied to you on accident or what.. but yes.. "A" god. but definitely not God.

I beleive in God. It borders on an impersonal God.

I am leaving the question of God out of the learning of the knowledge that man has on this subject.

I think the the name of mechanism that drives the process is more energy based.

Energy found in molocules, atoms and the sub components.



Energy.

The mechanisms that drive these processes are not so much biological as much as they are chemical and physical.

A quick dip into basic chemistry and atom/molecular interaction will clear this up for you. It's quite interesting when you really start exploring it - it's a very mechanical (and often randomized) process.
