What's a plasmid? A circle of DNA that scientists use to do amazing things. Learn more about plasmids in this science music video - inspired by "Beware" by Big Sean - explaining the applications of this biotechnology.
Protocols for creating plasmids can be found on the Addgene Protocols Page: bit.ly/2hG4nxE and on the Addgene Blog: bit.ly/2hwVZo9
More science raps by Cole & Erica:
Cole - "DNA": youtu.be/VrTGclugG0k
Erica - "That's Metal": youtu.be/BlBKsbCLY24
Video sponsored by Addgene - the nonprofit plasmid repository
Special Thanks to the Doudna RNA Lab at UC Berkeley and Sandra Culliton for the use of her plasmid art (etsy.me/1kWVxwM).
