Funky DNA picture 1

I made this as a presentation to my genetics professor. She was so impressed by the craftsmanship, that she hardly noticed how little I knew.

 

All the bases are colour-coded and at the bottom there is a nucleotide model with phosphate group (P), sugar (S) and base (B) marked. The pyrimidines and purines are distingueshed by the lighter/darker gray part. The model represents the B configuration, but can be reworked, although with much effort, into any other. I would enjoy keeping this built forever, but sadly it literally only uses my favourite pieces (minus the baseplate).
