DNA Interactive
DNA Interactive is an educational web site resource that
celebrates the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the DNA double helix structure. There are six
sections to this web site: Timeline, Code, Manipulation, Genome, Applications, Implications.
Each section is split into modules and has rare video interviews with scientists, 3D animations,
and narrative text to present and explain DNA science.
Timeline is an interactive, animated exploration of genetics and molecular biology from Gregor Mendel
and early genetics to Mario Capecchi, Francis Collins and current biotechnological techniques and
events. In the Timeline section, site visitors can travel through time to chart the history of
DNA science.
Code/Finding the Structure is the story of DNA: the discovery of its 3D structure, the double
helix, by James Watson and Francis Crick and the scientific clues provided by others like Rosalind
Franklin, Maurice Wilkins, Erwin Chargaff and Linus Pauling. Code/Copying the Code explains how
DNA works to make RNA to make protein. A number of scientists including Sydney Brenner, Matthew
Meselson, and Francois Jacob worked on the Central Dogma proposed by Watson and Crick.
Code/Reading the Code explains how the genetic code was broken through work done by Marshall
Nirenberg, Sydney Brenner, Gobind Khorana, Paul Berg, Maxine Singer. Code/Controlling the Code
explains the lac operon system first discovered by Francois Jacob and Jacques Monod, and DNA
folding or DNA packaging.
In the Manipulation section, visitors can discover the DNA science that transformed genetics and
biology. Manipulation/Revolution tells the story of how scientists struggled to isolate and study genes, and how they learned to cut, paste, and copy DNA. This section focuses on the work of Werner Arber, Arthur Kornberg, James Watson, Paul Berg, Herbert Boyer, and Stanley Cohen. Furthermore, the Revolution module explores the controversy that surrounded the first recombinant DNA (rDNA) experiments that culminated in the A
