A vertical image of a DNA double helix.

A 3D computer generated model of humans DNA structure. The double helix image labels base pairs, diameter, major and minor grooves.

Tutorial on DNA basics that goes along with an online quiz over the material. Use the naviagation buttons at the bottom of the page to go to the quiz over the material.

Illustration of a classic double-helix model of DNA.

Activity based on the use of computer enhanced molecular images, might be worth the effort for an AP class to try.

A good site that begins with the background and branches into the structure, function and applications of technology. This version of the page requires Java, and should open some applets that allow you to see the structures in 3-D.

This article describes a British project to store frozen samples of DNA from endangered species. The goal is to preserve genetic information, should a species go extinct.

A brief history of the major discoveries related to DNA from 1865 until 1991. Pictures of the responsible reponsibile for these key accomplishments are included as well.
