DNA Replication & CRISPR Editing (2D)

2D companion lab: watch a replication fork unzip a DNA duplex and synthesize two daughter strands base by base, then fire a CRISPR-Cas9 cut and repair on the growing sequence.

This 2D companion drives the same replication-fork and CRISPR-Cas9 mechanics as the 3D version through a plain canvas timeline: DNA polymerase reads each template strand and adds the complementary base as the fork sweeps left to right, occasional miscopies show up in magenta, and firing Cas9 cuts both strands ahead of the fork before non-homologous end joining repairs the break — usually cleanly, sometimes with a small indel.

⚙ Under the hood

2D replication-fork lab with adjustable speed, mutation rate and strand length, plus a CRISPR-Cas9 cut-and-repair sequence with a real chance of a clean repair or an indel.
