The video above explains the role of transcription factors in transcription. This helped me understand how transcription factors can help in gene regulation. It is a brief video with interesting animations that allow you to visualize the process. Please excuse the strange music; it seems the majority of bio videos online have some form of strange music on them.
This next video is on ribosomes and how they work in translation. I found this interesting because it shows the assembly of the ribosome, which occurs after encountering the mRNA in the cytoplasm. The video also explains the initiation factors that are involved in ribosomal activity, as I described in my previous post.
As always, I recommend Khan Academy videos if you are having difficulty understanding the concepts presented in the chapter. This video takes you back to DNA structure, then walks you through transcription and translation.
