Protein synthesis: an epic on the cellular level


 
   

Directed in 1971 by Robert Alan Weiss for the Department of Chemistry of Stanford University and imprinted with the "free love" aura of the period, this short film continues to be shown in biology class today. It has since spawn a series of similar funny attempts at vulgarizing protein synthesis. Narrated by Paul Berg, 1980 Nobel prize for Chemistry.

It's actually more victorian slang. It's paraphrasing Lewis Carol's poem "Jabberwocky." The poem is nonsense.

"All mimsy was mRNA, and Protein chain outgrabe..." - great, 2 words to look up since I know all the scientific ones but not the 70's slang. :(
