In this video, presenter Sandra Porter discusses using the protein Basic Local Alignment Search Tool...

This video, provided by Digital World Biology, is from a series of tutorial videos for iCn3D, a web-based three-dimensional visualization and structural analysis platform for molecular structures. This tutorial builds on the previous video in the series: Drug Discovery 2: Using Protein BLAST For...

Two sequencing techniques were developed independently in the 1970s. The method developed by Fred Sanger used chemically altered 'dideoxy' bases to terminate newly synthesized DNA fragments at specific bases (either A, C, T, or G). These fragments are then size-separated, and the DNA sequence can be...

This video, provided by Digital World Biology, is from the 2022 Antibody Engineering Hackathon, an event where teams collaborated to develop Course-based Undergraduate Research projects (CURES) for students studying biotechnology. The first half of the video features presenter Monica Berrondo's...

This lecture from the iBioSeminars project is presented by Sangeeta Bhatia from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute covers the concept of engineering tissues that are part cell and part synthetic material, proposed nearly 20 years ago. This lecture...

The North Carolina Community College System BioNetwork's interactive eLearning tools (IETs) are reusable chunks of training that can be deployed in a variety of courses or training programs. IETs are designed to enhance, not replace hands-on training. Learners are able to enter a hands-on lab...

These resources, from the Northeast Biomanufacturing Center and Collaborative (NBC2), include information on the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for the batch culture of recombinant E. coli. A 38-page manual includes four SOPs, a protocol, and a batch record; these are also available as...

In this lab activity from the Biotechnology Alliance for Suncoast Biology Educators (BASBE), students will explore photosynthesis, develop a testable hypothesis about the effect of light quality (color) on the rate of photosynthesis of Elodea, and graph measurement data from their testing. The...

In this lab activity from the Biotechnology Alliance for Suncoast Biology Educators (BASBE), students will learn the phases of mitosis and determine the approximate time it takes for plant and animal cells to pass through each of the four stages of mitosis. They do this by counting the number of...
