Issues of genetics and DNA are constantly cropping up in the news from food production and health, to legal cases and ethics. We hear about DNA in movies like Jurassic Park and X-men, we learn bits and pieces about it from TV shows like Dexter and and CSI, but what exactly is DNA, and how does it work?

This animated short film has been made for those wanting a simple introduction (or even a refresher) on how DNA creates a living creature. In this video you will learn a bit about genetic code, DNA transcription and translation, and the importance of proteins in the chemistry of life.

Video was written, presented, and animated by Jon Perry
Music by Anthony Danzl (check out his website at www.proofavenue.com/ )
Research and instructional design by Varinia Acosta

  • I've taught high school biology for 6 years and have watched probably nearly a thousand science videos trying to find the best ones to use, and this video is my favorite science video on the internet because it tackles such a difficult concept in a clear and nicely illustrated way. Thank you for this series.

    I searched up Kendrick Lamar dna and I got this
  • I watched this video. I enjoyed this video. I enjoyed his voice. I'm 51 years old and now I want to go to school and get a degree and learn all about DNA and biology. Damn it!
  • @jack8356
    the fact that people are able to find this out is really extraordinary
  • Who was sent here by their science teacher during rona season?
  • When the dog came on the screen I was like 'awww!'. Then the dinosaur ate it and I died a little inside.
  • This channel deserves way more recognition man. You just made me understand what I didn't understood for 3+ years in my life.
  • This is by far the best explanation of DNA/transcription/translation that I've seen! I work in a genomics lab and am always looking for good, simple explanations of this process. Thanks for this!
  • i have never been taught something so clearly in my entire life. when my teacher explained this to me in class, i didnt even understand a thing she was saying, but from this video, i feel like a whole new ensmarted person
  • @paulsaxo8754
    As a physician and educator I have to say, well done guys. Your videos explain the fundamentals of science and biology in simple, clear, unambiguous but very cleverly accurate terms. Great work.
  • @KP_Oz
    This is worth saving for future reference! There's no other video on YouTube that describes everything from amino acids to cell construction with a simple with easy to follow animation. Well done 👍
  • I really have to thank u and your team for making all the stated clearly videos. You didn't only explained to me in a perfect clear way things that i wasn't able to understand as good when i was at school (im from spain, and in my experience they only teach people here by reading directly from the book, and i went to 3 different schools), but you made me want to know more and more about science since i saw your videos one year ago. I just wanted to really thank the creator and his team, and to encourage them to continue making these videos which are so amazingly clear that i hope that some day they can be taught in most schools.

    I'm not sure if anyone could explain this better. Absolutely fantastic job. I am not a student and just a layperson, and yet this presentation clicked in my head right away. The awesome and fun graphics added to the experience. Thank you.
  • I dunno how to thank this man. Wish he was my teacher

    Instant subscribe. I had never seen such a concise explanation of DNA! I just have to watch all your videos now.
  • Dear John, I was trying to understand this for many years......with your video I could understand. I feel like I understand everything about DNA. Thank you for making it simple for people like me.
  • You’re helping me relearn everything from high school in a much better way. Education system needs an overhaul.
  • I teach English at a German high school. Our new topic is "Science and technology: biotechnology, genetic engineering". This video is so perfect even for those of my students who haven't yet dealt with genetics in biology classes. Thanks a lot!
