Protein synthesis an epic on the cellular level

Presents a choreographic interpretation of the dynamic processes of protein synthesis in the cell as a dance performed by 200 students to an original rock-music score. Protein syntheses are presented in three stages: initiation, propagation and termination. Initiation is shown in a series of steps leading to ribosome on messenger with FMET T-RNA bound. Propagation shows addition of aminoacyl T-RNAs and translocation. Termination indicates codon recognition and complete release of components.
