The Cell Cycle-Video tutorial
The cell cycle, or cell-division cycle, is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its replication. In prokaryotes, the cell cycle occurs via a process termed binary fission. In eukaryotes, the cell cycle can be divided in two brief periods: interphase—during which the cell grows, accumulating nutrients [...]

DNA structure-Video tutorial
The structure of DNA is illustrated by a right handed double helix, with about 10 nucleotide pairs per helical turn. Each spiral strand, composed of a sugar phosphate backbone and attached bases, is connected to a complementary strand by hydrogen bonding (non- covalent) between paired bases, adenine (A) with thymine (T) and guanine [...]

Protein structure-Video
Based on Structure hierarchy proteins are classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure.

Primary Structure refers to the linear sequence of amino acids that make up the polypeptide chain.

The secondary structure of protein molecules refers to the formation of a regular pattern of twists or kinks of the polypeptide chain. The regularity is due [...]
