1Exploring Molecule World Molecule World allows you to search and display structures from multiple databases -PubChem -NCBI Cn3D -PDB Atoms are shown with the appropriate size. A color key lets you identify the elements. 3 Molecule World comes with some structures related to classroom topics 1BNA = double stranded DNA 1OCC= cytochrome C oxidase, used in DNA barcoding 1TAU = Taq polymerase & DNA, used in PCR 1TRZ = human insulin 2BAM = BamHI, a restriction enzyme, cuts DNA 2DN2 = Human hemoglobin 3ADF = Green fluorescent protein (GFP) 3ZTN = part of an antibody bound to hemagglutinin from influenza 4BBS = RNA polymerase bound to DNA 4TRA = yeast tRNA Bromocresol purple, Bromophenol blue, caffeine, glucose, penicillin, phenol red Examples of Molecule World structures shown in different rendering & coloring modes The grey (neutral) area shows the membrane-spanning region of cytochrome C oxidase Cytochrome C oxidase The red & white chains are DNA. Taq polymerase 8 The red and white chains are DNA. BamHI endonuclease This is hemoglobin. Each ring is a heme. Human hemoglobin The white residue is the GFP chromophore. Green Fluorescent Protein 11 The blue and green chains are from the antibody. Antibody bound to an inluenza antigen Coming in July! Rainbow Coloring & Sequence Displays Coming in July!
