DNA structure made easy with our interactive model!
With this exciting model you make base pairs and combine them to make a model of the DNA double helix.
For beginners, it can be used to show the double helix structure of DNA.
More advanced learners can use the model to show: complementary base pairing, nucleotide structure, double-helix shape, 5' and 3' ends, antiparallel strands, sugar-phosphate backbone, purines and pyrimidines and DNA sequence.
You can make as long a DNA model as you like as you can print as many bases as you want to.
Suitable for ages 8+
Download and print as many times as you want to.
Can be printed in either colour or black and white. No special paper is needed.
Includes full colour instructions and Powerpoint presentation.
Takes about 20 minutes to make a 12 base pair model.
Dimensions: DNA strand: 43cm/17in long/10cm/4in wide.
