  • endonuclease=the worker who determines the nucleotide is in the wrong place

    topoisomerase= the worker coiling the DNA

    DNA polymerase= the worker synthesizing the the nucleotides

    Ribosome = the construction site where the protein synthesis is occuring

    Peptidyl transferase = the workers connecting the protein fragments (amino acid) together thru peptide bond [video wrongly show the workers breaking it up]

    Proteins get their shape by folding, unfolded protein are just polypeptides

  • @ballroominterloper Thanks, I think with the peptidyl transferase, they're trying to tie the polypeptide mess together. Also remember this was made in 1986.

  • nice

    

  • Memories of watching this in bed as a child. Not understanding shit until I watched it back now at 19

  • 60 billion!!!

  • He slap the baby so he can make sure that the baby is alright. Cause the first sign that a baby is healthy and strong is that the baby is crying. So that why he slap the baby, so he can see if it's crying.

  • Why does he slap the baby? XD

  • @Giradox to see if the baby is alive and well :)

  • wow, this would confuse and scare the bejeebers out of a little me watching cartoons!

  • 6:26 - Nice shirt!

  • I want a pet protein!!

  • ass getting slapped is a good thing. Too bad that most of our politics get a head slap instead when they where born.

  • Why do the chromosomes go into the 'duplication room' when they're already duplicated? Why doesn't one of them have a lady's hat and the other a bowler's cap, i.e., parental inheritance? Whatever happened to synapse? Why are they already metaphase chromosomes before replication instead of interphase chromosomes or chromatin? All of the details are there but they're scrambled to shit.

  • thatnks man

    i love this show

  • I really loved this series when I was a kid! And I remember seeing it again after years... Having learned about the bases and DNA and RNA and all that, I was surprised at how accurate it was! They've done a really great job. They've kept a very good balance between education and entertainment!

  • @tanialupin There is very, very, very little accurate about this, it's a travesty almost. I mean why didn't they just look at a damn textbook? Ask a professor? Get rid of details they don't actually understand?

  • What's a "U" base do?

  • @06stephend "U" is Uracil, it takes the role of the "T" (Thymine) on RNA, but the function is the same, be complementary of the "A" adenine.

    By the way, in this serie "T" appears many times on the RNA, which is a mistake. (This is what happens when you see a serie many times, haha!)

    Well, one cannot expect the animators experts on biochemistry, so it's OK for me he he.

  • I love the tRNAs in 1950s style cars. Nice touch! =)

  • They way they'd been explaining everything in such detail, I kind of expected a longer delivery! The frame at 6:25 was a bit of a shock!

  • @AdamKW69 This kind of thing happens when you try to cram 9 months into 30 minutes.

  • 6:33 - LMAO!

  • They kinda left out the tRNA's polypeptide, which would then be formed into protein.

  • True. In this series only mRNA and ribosomes are shown, and actually the aminoacids are the same characters than the mRNAs. Still, this simplified view is good enough for kids, and adding all the process could be too complex.

  • 6:33-The cry of a newborn baby. . . the most beautiful sound a mother can hear.
