Description

Regulation of gene expression can seem a little dull and complicated – these fun Doodle Notes will help to bring this topic to life for your students!

Engaging doodles are used to show how different molecules interact with DNA and mRNA to control gene expression. Students will review transcription factors, interfering RNA, operons, DNA methylation and histone acetylation, all in 4 compact pages of Doodle Notes.

These are a wonderful way to review these concepts and are perfect for high school and AP Biology classes. Multiple versions of the notes are provided, including open response and scaffolded fill-in-the-blanks.

My Doodle Notes are low prep – just print and go! There is a completed example to model the Doodle Notes for your students or let them check their answers.
