Unlock the mystery of how DNA and RNA pave the way to the production of a protein, with the help of tRNA molecules and amino acids–all of which are pictured in our models!
Our Friends Kit includes umber-colored tubes representing uracil (U), which replace thymine (T) to accurately model RNA’s unique composition. The umber color is a mnemonic aid, specifically chosen to help students remember the presence of uracil in RNA.
We also include tRNA molecule models–using foam rubber pads, a colored applique and attached anticodon tubes–to show how our amino acids are brought in, one by one, to link together to form a protein. Our basic kit includes three tRNAs and seven amino acids, while the premium kit includes seven tRNAs with the seven amino acids. We also include plenty of color tubes to enable the anticodon bases to be shown…and even to allow for point mutations and to show a “single nucleotide polymorphism” (SNP).

Dynamic 3D DNA Model (3′ FT Long)
A Color-coded, Flexible Ladder with Epigenetic Methyl-Switches.
Explore the double helix structure of DNA with our dynamic and engaging 3D model. This 38-inch, color-coded model features 21 rungs, clearly illustrating the base pairs (A-T and C-G) and the sugar-phosphate backbone. Its flexible, durable design allows for hands-on manipulation, while its unique unzipping action demonstrates the process of DNA replication. This model is an invaluable tool for understanding the fundamental building blocks of life.
