Protein Synthesis Manipulatives Demonstration Set
Product Code : JL-LEP-10339
The Protein Synthesis Manipulatives Demonstration Set (SKU JL-LEP-10339) is a magnetic teaching kit that shows how a cell builds a protein from the information in DNA. The protein synthesis manipulatives include a 33-piece teacher set of large DNA, mRNA, ribosome, tRNA and amino acid pieces for whole-class demonstration, plus 180 smaller pieces for students at their tables. JaincoLab manufactures the set in India for school and college biology departments.
Specifications
The set contains 33 reusable, non-toxic, magnetic and colourful teacher manipulatives, including a 3'–5' DNA sense strand and a linear 5'–3' anti-sense strand, together with 180 smaller student manipulatives, a teacher’s key for checking answers and an instructional video or how-to CD-ROM.

Applications of the protein synthesis manipulatives
The set is used to model transcription and translation step by step: students build an mRNA strand from the DNA template, match tRNA anticodons to codons at the ribosome and link amino acids into a chain, first as a teacher demonstration and then in groups with the student pieces.
- Demonstrating transcription of DNA into mRNA with the large magnetic teacher pieces
- Modelling translation at the ribosome, with tRNA bringing amino acids to matching codons
- Group or individual practice with the 180 student manipulatives at the table
- Checking student sequences against the teacher’s key
- Molecular biology and genetics lessons in senior secondary biology and B.Sc. classes
