My band Ambiguous Toad covers The Ramones "Blitzkrieg Bop" with our own twist. This was done for a school project, and it was for fun, and somewhat comedic on the vocals ;)

Directed in 1971 by Robert Alan Weiss for the Department of Chemistry of Stanford University and imprinted with the "free love" aura of the period, this short film continues to be shown in biology class today. It has since spawn a series of similar funny attempts at vulgarizing protein synthesis. Narrated by Paul Berg, 1980 Nobel prize for Chemistry.
Ribosome (in blue, gold) makes cell proteins from amino acids delivered by tRNAs (orange, green, purple) and EF-Tu (red), and is a popular target for antibiotics research. A method for capturing ribosome in action is shown; the method reveals movement of a protein (blue, curly) into the ribosome.

In the translation process, interpretation of genetic codes in form of codon along mRNA would create a particular protein. The translator is the transfer RNA (tRNA) which has three nucleoide (anticodon) specific for each type of amino acid. The anticodon bond to the complementary codon of the mRNA and transfering amino acids from cytoplasm to ribosome.
