Modelling Mini-Toobers

You will want to have these versatile and fun toobers within easy reach throughout the school year. With each kit, students can fold and twist the 1-metre long toober into alpha helices or beta sheets. Use two toobers together to demonstrate the plectonemic nature of DNA. You can easily use these before or after a more thorough exploration of protein folding and structure.

Each flexible foam mini toober has a soft wire core and is 1 metre long. They are sold separately. One red and one blue end cap come with each mini toober. Push pins are not included.
