Find an interesting biochemistry website and put its link in this entry, and describe briefly what is found there.

http://www.bioteach.ubc.ca/TeachingResources/MolecularBiology/DNAReplication.swf

This is an interesting site that has an animated version of DNA replication. It is another way to show the replication process and explain the various processes that occur. After the animation there is a quiz to see if you were paying attention. These kinds of sites help to give you a visual of the process and make it a little easier to understand and remember. Good luck on the quiz.

The Medical Biochemistry Page, by: Michael W. King PhD; copyright 1996

This is a very large site with links to many biochemistry topics. There are also links to diseases and disorders as well as treatments of disease. If there is a particular biochemical reaction or process you are interested in, you can search for that and then follow links to find disorders caused by abnormalities or malfunctions of this process. This is a site that can be helpful if you are looking for specific information regarding a particular disease. It can also be helpful if you are looking for a broad overview of the impact that minute disruptions in the molecular processes can have on life.
