Using a PyMOL activity to reinforce the connection between genotype and phenotype in an undergraduate genetics laboratory.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

With the purpose of developing an activity that would help clarify genetic concepts related to the connection between genotype and phenotype and the nature of mutations, we designed a three hour teaching module using the PyMol software. The activity starts with two pre-laboratory assignments, one to learn how to use PyMol and the other to read about a specific protein or protein family. During the laboratory...
