Molecular Model – Orbit DNA‑RNA (Transcription Model) [0504]

The Orbit DNA‑RNA Molecular Model is an advanced, large‑scale teaching aid designed to illustrate the process of transcription, where DNA is used to form RNA. Suitable for KS3 and above, and particularly valuable at GCSE and A‑Level biology, this model provides a clear three‑dimensional representation of a key molecular biology process.

The model displays a 12 base‑pair section of DNA with an RNA strand forming alongside it, allowing students to visualise how complementary RNA bases are assembled from a DNA template. This makes abstract textbook diagrams far easier to understand and supports deeper learning of gene expression and protein synthesis.

With an impressive size of approximately 50cm in height and 10cm in width, the enlarged format is ideal for whole‑class demonstrations. As part of the trusted Orbit molecular model range, the structure is colour‑coded, robust, and designed for repeated use in busy educational environments.
