Amino acid starter kit allows students to explore the shape and chemical properties of the 20 amino acid sidechains with engaging foam models.
The side chains feature dual colouring schemes - colour on one side indicates chemical properties and on the other side students colour-code atoms.
Since understanding protein structure begins with this unique combination of shape and chemical properties of the amino acid sidechains, students will gain a basic knowledge of the laws that determine protein folding.
Kit includes:
- 1 Chemical Properties Circle
- 1 Modeling Tie
- 22 Foam Bumpers
- 22 Amino Acid Side Chains
- 23 Plastic Clips
- Documents that provide instructions
