these 3d models are amazing, how were they produced?

@VELOC1RAPT0R We usually use Maya for 3D models but in this case the program is JMOL which is an open source molecule viewer that is available online. Various molecules are available from a number of free databases.

Can you post one for electron transport and crebs cycle?

[cassiopeiaproject]

So far we have been unable to get the models for the molecules involved in those processes. We will keep looking.

Nice to see that the guy who did the voiceovers of Fred Savage in "The Wonder Years" still has a job, albeit in chem videos.

OMG !! GREAT !! I was so tired of seeing arrows and cicles of other's schemas... really helped. Thanks !

This is so off topic, but who is the artist in this video? Really digging the music.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­! THANK YOU!!!!

Great video! If you're looking for the 3d structures to explore, do consider searching the PDB (Protein Data Bank) which is hosted at Rutgers U. Two of my favorite molecular visualization packages are PyMOL (education version is free, is programmable using Python, scripts and tutorials can be found in PyMOLwiki) and Swiss-PDB Viewer (also free, tutorial sites available).

You should mention that at step 6, the Glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase enzyme adds the phosphate from inorganic phosphate and N compounds, otherwise people might think 4 ATP molecules were used and 4 came out of the reaction, when in reality only 2 were used.

Other than that, friggin' good video o/
