Genetics Preview
Paul Andersen previews the information in the genetics unit. He defines the central dogma of biology and explains how DNA creates an RNA transcript that is used to translate proteins. He differentiates between mitosis and meiosis. He...

Transcription and Translation: From DNA to Protein
Ok, so everyone knows that DNA is the genetic code, but what does that mean? How can some little molecule be a code that makes a single cell develop into a giraffe, or a monkey, or Tony Danza? Within this clip lie the answers, child!

Regulation of Gene Expression: Operons, Epigenetics, and Transcription Factors
We learned about gene expression in biochemistry, which is comprised of transcription and translation, and referred to as the "central dogma" of molecular biology. But how is this process regulated? How does a cell know which genes to...

Zika virus: How self-destructing genetically modified mosquitoes may be the answer
A British company Oxitec may have a way to fight Zika virus. They create genetically modified mosquitoes that produce offspring that will not survive into adulthood. The company uses a tetracycline repressible activator variant or tTAV...

Viral Replication
Paul Andersen explains how viruses reproduce using the lytic cycle. He also shows how viruses can pick up new genetic material and how retroviruses (like HIV) can enter into the lytic cycle. He also describes the lysogenic cycle and how...

Genetic control and the mammalian radiation
To grow tissues in our body two key types of DNA control how, where and when to build essential proteins. Recent comparisons of mammal genomes show that instructions coding how to build proteins are similar across diverse species. In...
