A hands-on that lets students control gene expression in a virtual cell and see how proteins are made. Learners toggle DNA transcription and mRNA translation processes to produce proteins, exploring factors like gene regulation and mutation. This interactive tool reinforces understanding of how genes code for traits and develops lab skills relevant to biotechnology and molecular biology careers.
