Here are some great links for simulations/animations of the cellular processes of turning a DNA gene into a protein that we've talked about this week in class:
Cartoonish simulation of DNA -> RNA -> Protein
Great animation of DNA transcription as it happens in the nucleus
Great animation of RNA -> protein translation, as it happens in the cytoplasm of the cell

DNA -> RNA -> Protein
Follow the process of turning the code from a DNA gene into RNA (transcription), and then RNA into a protein (translation) in the following awesome simulation:
Translation/Transcription in the Cell: a Simulation
Don't forget the handy-dandy codon wheel for turning RNA codons into amino acids:
