Nucleic Acids, Biology

Target Grade: 9-14

The current world wide interest in molecular biology and the publicity attendant on genetic information and recombinant DNA technology makes it difficult to believe that the role of nucleic acids as the carriers of genetic information was not generally appreciated until the 1950's. Today, DNA and RNA are household words and appreciation of the fundamental differences in their chemical composition is basic to an understanding of their different roles in information transfer in the cell. This nucleic acids kit provides the student with the opportunity of demonstrating differences between DNA and RNA in terms of components and internucleotide linkages.
