WWW pages have been designed as a part of a basic course in molecular
biology (Department of Medical Biochemistry, Goteborg
University, Sweden). The pages are in the form of a quiz. Questions
are presented one at a time and only when the right answer is given
you are allowed to proceed to the next question.
Most of the questions are related to DNA and protein sequence
information. The package makes use of links to sites for molecular
biology sequence analysis such as BLAST and Webcutter. There is also
an opportunity to study the 3D structure of nucleic acids and
proteins with the aid of the Rasmol and Kinemage programs.
The pages are designed to cover the flow of genetic information,
going from DNA to protein. Some topics are
-Building blocks of nucleic acids and proteins
-Structure of nucleic acids
-Nucleotide and amino acid sequences
-Restriction enzymes
-Transcription
-The genetic code and translation
