G634 Application of Biotechnology Lesson 1

Choose topic. Marks allocation for G634. Restriction enzymes. Note 1 Introduction. For Teachers - Origami DNA. Origami DNA Type: Classroom activity Age level: 10 years + Topic area: DNA, DNA structure Description: A practical activity for the classroom that allows the students to create an origami model of DNA, demonstrating its double helix structure.

For Teachers - Origami DNA

Two templates are available as PDFs; a standard template with the base pairs already coloured or a blank template where the students have to colour the four bases A, C, T and G and mark them in the correct location on the template. Running the activity: To run this activity each student will require: one template and one instruction sheet. If you choose to use the blank template, you will need to provide students with colouring-in pencils or pens to complete the base pairs.

Bacteria in biotech

Since ancient times, we have used bacteria (despite not knowing that they existed!) In producing yoghurt, cheese and other fermented foods. We have also ‘used’ the large population of bacteria in our digestive system to help us break down food and make vitamins. Today, we put bacteria to use in many more ways.

Bacteria – particularly the bacterium Escherichia coli – have been central to this revolution.
