This activity has AP Bio (or honors bio) students model and sort the events of transcription and translation, and RNA splicing. The goal of this activity is for students to map the expression of a single hypothetical gene (called shyn-1) from DNA to protein, including the multiple different isoforms that could be expressed because of RNA splicing. Students will make not just one protein product, but will show how the shyn-1 gene can be spliced multiple ways, forming 3 different protein products,
