Krishna Mohan Surapaneni – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
Innovations in medical education, including the integration of narrative-based tales, are transforming the way complex biochemical concepts are taught and understood. In this "Idea to Explore", the essence of integrating tales that personify molecules and depict biochemical processes as engaging stories to enhance student engagement,…

Karaismailoglu, Fatma; Yildirim, Mehtap – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
This article presents the integration of Tinkercad, a free online modeling program that allows students to model molecular genetic concepts, into the distance learning process. The students had the opportunity to learn molecular genetics in a fun and more efficient way in spite of the limitations of the COVID-19 lockdown, and, in this respect, it…

Agrawal, Swati; Austin, Shane – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
We present here two accessible ways for enhanced understanding of complex biological structures and their function in undergraduate Biology and Biochemistry classrooms. These methods can be applied for in-class instruction as well as for remote lessons, as they are cheap, easily available and easy to implement. LEGO® bricks and MERGE CUBE based…

Yuen, Pong Kau; Lau, Cheng Man Diana – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Oxidation number (ON) is taught as an electron-counting concept for redox reactions in chemistry curriculum. The molecular formula method, the Lewis formula method, and the structural formula method have all been used to determine ON. However, the task of assigning ON still poses problems for some teachers and students. This paper explores a new…

Krzysiak, Amanda; Doyle, Caroline; Huff, Mary O. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Project-based (research-driven) laboratory courses stimulate student involvement, improve critical thinking and initiate cooperative learning. To this end, a 7-week laboratory project was designed for a sophomore cell biology course to reinforce the fundamental relationship between genotype and phenotype using yeast alcohol dehydrogenase I (ADH1).…

Trivedi, Vishwa D. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Protein structure-function relationship serves as the primary learning outcome in any undergraduate biochemistry course. We expanded the protein structure-function exploration, PSFE initiative during COVID-19 to provide more effective and engaging experience to our undergraduates in biochemistry and independent research courses. Multiple…

Weiss, Charles J. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
This article reports a workshop from the 2021 IUBMB/ASBMB Teaching Science with Big Data conference held virtually in June 2021 where participants learned to explore and visualize large quantities of protein PBD data using Jupyter notebooks and the Python programming language. This activity instructs participants using Jupyter notebooks, Python…

Mihasan, Marius – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
The structure and function of biomolecules relationship is the hallmark of biochemistry, molecular biology, and life sciences in general. Physical models of macromolecules give students the possibility to manipulate these structures in three dimensions, developing a sense of spatiality and a better understanding of key aspects such as atom size…

Bubis, José – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Protein molecular weight standards are routinely employed in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) to estimate the apparent sizes of unknown proteins within a sample. For training students, a laboratory course based on the production of marker proteins is proposed. Following fractionation by column chromatography, a…

Suárez Casanova, Víctor Manuel; Shumskaya, Maria – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
DNA structure has been leveraged in a variety of facets that allow scientists to perform a range of assays, including ones for identification of species, establishing evolutionary relationships between taxa, or even identifying individuals. Here, we present a DNA barcoding method as practical, hands-on approach that connects several experimental…

Allbee, Quinn; Barber, Robert – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Biology is a data-driven discipline facilitated greatly by computer programming skills. This article describes an introductory experiential programming activity that can be integrated into distance learning environments. Students are asked to develop their own Python programs to identify the nature of alleles linked to disease. This activity…

Rusydi, Febdian; Madinah, Roichatul; Puspitasari, Ira; Mark-Lee, Wun F.; Ahmad, Azizan; Rusydi, Andrivo – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
The fundamental mechanism of biochemistry lies on the reaction kinetics, which is determined by the reaction pathways. Interestingly, the reaction pathway is a challenging concept for undergraduate students. Experimentally, it is difficult to observe, and theoretically, it requires some degree of physics knowledge, namely statistical and quantum…

Hoog, Tanner G.; Aufdembrink, Lauren M.; Gaut, Nathaniel J.; Sung, Rou-Jia; Adamala, Katarzyna P.; Engelhart, Aaron E. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
Structural biology education commonly employs molecular visualization software, such as PyMol, RasMol, and VMD, to allow students to appreciate structure--function relationships in biomolecules. In on-ground, classroom-based education, these programs are commonly used on University-owned devices with software preinstalled. Remote education…

Silverstein, Todd P. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
The Hill equation, which models the cooperative ligand-receptor binding equilibrium, turns out to be useful in modeling the progression of infectious disease outbreaks such as CoViD-19. The equation fits well the data for total and daily case numbers, allows tentative predictions for the half-point and end point of the epidemic, and presents a…

Goodsell, David S.; Zardecki, Christine; Berman, Helen M.; Burley, Stephen K. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
For 20 years, Molecule of the Month articles have highlighted the functional stories of 3D structures found in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The PDB is the primary archive of atomic structures of biological molecules, currently providing open access to more than 150,000 structures studied by researchers around the world. The wealth of knowledge…
