Direct linkTan, Hock Siew – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Many universities resort to online teaching due to COVID-19 pandemic. It is a challenging endeavor, especially in Molecular Biology courses that require lab access. Mock grant application roleplay is one alternative to lab-based activities. Students are engaged in three aspects: (i) targeted literature review, (ii) research proposal writing and…

Finby, Brooks; Heyer, Laurie J.; Malcolm Campbell, A. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Many molecular biology and biochemistry instructors have altered their classroom behavior in favor of evidence-based, active learning instructional strategies. Overwhelming evidence confirms that lecture-only classrooms are detrimental to student learning outcomes, but we know less about the impact textbooks have on students outside the classroom.…

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…

Scalfani, Vincent F. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
The National Center for Biotechnology Information Entrez Direct (EDirect) software facilitates programmatic access to numerous biomedical, chemical, and literature databases from within a Unix terminal. EDirect has traditionally been used for command line access to NCBI data within the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics. This…

Zhang, Yanfen; Qu, Yilin; Zhang, Yuwen; Ma, Ning – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Molecular biology is an important course for medical postgraduates to understand the practice of modern molecular medicine. At present, molecular biology has been widely used in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of clinical medicine. The COVID-19 pandemic forced all universities suspending academic activities and online teaching all over…

Liu, Jinjie; Cook, Ron; Danhof, Linda; Lopatto, David; Stoltzfus, Jon R.; Benning, Christoph – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
A complex research project was translated into a Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE), which was implemented in sections of an introductory Cell and Molecular Biology laboratory course. The research laboratory generated an engineered plant line producing a growth-inhibiting, lipid-derived plant hormone and mutagenized this line.…

Leonardo D. Garma; Nuno S. Osório – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2024
Dimensionality reduction techniques are essential in analyzing large 'omics' datasets in biochemistry and molecular biology. Principal component analysis, t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding, and uniform manifold approximation and projection are commonly used for data visualization. However, these methods can be challenging for students…

Valdivieso-Rivera, Fernando; Almeida, José Rafael; Proaño-Bolaños, Carolina – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
Laboratory-based "practical" classes are an essential component in teaching molecular biology for undergraduate students. Universidad Regional Amazonica Ikiam is a higher education institution located in the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest, a high biodiversity place, including amphibians. Based on this, we have established a practical…

Castro-Faix, Moraima; Duncan, Ravit G. – Science Education, 2022
Genetics is a core topic in the biology curriculum of many countries. Learning genetics is difficult for multiple reasons, including the need to reason about complex mechanisms--and to link mechanisms--that occur at different time and space scales. Previous research in genetics education explores students' understandings of inheritance patterns or…

The main protease of SARS-CoV-2 is a promising drug target due to its functional role as a catalytic dyad in mediating proteolysis during the viral life cycle. In this study, experimentally proven 14 HIV protease peptides were screened against the main protease of SARS-CoV-2. Fourteen middle and high school "student researchers" were…

This study aims to develop an integrated textbook called "MERISKA" (an acronym of Metacognition, Critical Thinking, Islamic values, and Character in Indonesian). This integrated textbook MERISKA with content to practice metacognitive skills (include planning, monitoring, and evaluation in the learning process), critical thinking skills…

Gaiser, J. Christopher; Roberts, Michael F. – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2022
We describe a novel, university-level, introductory biology course that uses evolution as a narrative framework. Our course conveys the content in an introductory biology course by telling the story of the evolution of life on Earth. We begin with early Earth environments in which biological molecules and processes evolved and led to the first…

Representation of Three-Center-Two-Electron Bonds in Covalent Molecules with Bridging Hydrogen Atoms
Parkin, Gerard – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Many compounds can be represented well in terms of the two-center-two-electron (2c-2e) bond model. However, it is well-known that this approach has limitations; for example, certain compounds require the use of three-center-two-electron (3c-2e) bonds to provide an adequate description of the bonding. Although a classic example of a compound that…

Coronavirus (COVID-19) disease is an emerging situation that brought challenges to all sectors, including academia and research. Undergraduate and postgraduate students in biochemistry and molecular biology have been affected significantly due to the recent laboratory closures. Experiments have been suspended for long causing extreme stress to the…

By means of their pivotal role in the outbreak of a variety of diseases, such as, recently, COVID-19, the molecular aspects of cell membrane function have gained considerable attention from researchers in recent decades. The resulting information explosion and the growing interdisciplinary character of cell biology seems, however, to not be…
