	What's DNA? Part1-3 (Japanese only)

We started to produce these computer graphics [What's DNA] in 1997 and now part 3 is completed. This video will be interesting not only to biological experts but also to those, who hardly know anything about biology. In [What's DNA Part3], we show the recombination and repair of DNA by computer graphics and watercolor paintings.
