Description
Lesson Plans and lab work is now available on my teacher pay teacher site, https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/3D-Printable-DNA-RNA-Manipulative-Lab-1-3452084
This is a set of restriction enzymes to expand upon my DNA/RNA Manipulative set. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1259352
These 4 restriction enzyme blocks can be used to model how they work, and how gene splicing / recumbent DNA works. The blocks also show how many restriction enzymes are palindromes with sticky ends.
Your students will enjoy simulating genetic engineering with this expansion set.
This features EcoRI, BamHI, Hindll, and Kpnl Restriction enzymes. There are over 600 of these restriction enzymes used in gene splicing.
If you want to make your own restriction enzymes for gene editing, I punished an expansion set here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1321230
A partial list of restriction enzymes can be found here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_restriction_enzyme_cutting_sites
If you want other restriction enzymes made, I can make them on commission. PM me or contact me via [email protected] for details.
