Practical Proteins (Part 2 of 4)
by Mollie Grove
In this lesson students will continue to learn about protein synthesis. At the beginning of this lesson students should know that genes have the code to make proteins. Today they will be introduced to codons and how genes code for proteins. In this lesson students will use a modified codon chart in which amino acids have been replaced with the materials used in lesson 1 to build a protein. Students will use this chart to create a string of beads that is the instructions for how to build their protein.
