DNA Rap Song:
Break it down
Chorus:
The DNA, the DNA, the DNA makes protein.
The DNA, the DNA, the DNA makes protein.
The DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA makes protein.
The DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA, the DNA makes protein.
The nucleus dissolves when it’s time to divide.
Nitrogeneous bases line-up side by side.
Sugar phosphate backbone goes along for the ride.
String them all together, make a nucleotide.
A pairs with T and G pairs with C.
It works ‘cause the code’s complementary
It lets you be you and me be me
From Mr. Rea to Mr. Kelly!!!
Chorus
Transcription takes the bases that are found in one gene.
Converts them into RNA if you know what I mean.
The bases pair up just like they did before
But U subs for T, which isn’t needed anymore.
RNA leaves the nucleus but the job isn’t done.
Ribosomes roll in to join in all the fun.
Three bases make a codon, count them 1, 2, 3
An amino acid for each codon in the growing protein.
Chorus
DNA makes protein never ending.
Poly, poly peptides, ever rending.
And save for random chance mutation.
Precisely copies each creation.
DNA is the star of this fanciful tale.
In the smallest mouse, in the largest whale.
Determining your features to the last detail.
From this cellular obsession, life on earth shall prevail.
Chorus
