  • DNA: the Timeline and Evidence of Discovery
    1/19/2017 DNA: The Timeline and Evidence of Discovery Interactive Click and Learn (Ann Brokaw Rocky River High School) Introduction For almost a century, many scientists paved the way to the ultimate discovery of DNA and its double helix structure. Without the work of these pioneering scientists, Watson and Crick may never have made their ground-breaking double helix model, published in 1953. The knowledge of how genetic material is stored and copied in this molecule gave rise to a new way of looking at and manipulating biological processes, called molecular biology. The breakthrough changed the face of biology and our lives forever. Watch The Double Helix short film (approximately 15 minutes) – hyperlinked here. 1 1/19/2017 1865 The Garden Pea 1865 The Garden Pea In 1865, Gregor Mendel established the foundation of genetics by unraveling the basic principles of heredity, though his work would not be recognized as “revolutionary” until after his death. By studying the common garden pea plant, Mendel demonstrated the inheritance of “discrete units” and introduced the idea that the inheritance of these units from generation to generation follows particular patterns. These patterns are now referred to as the “Laws of Mendelian Inheritance.” 2 1/19/2017 1869 The Isolation of “Nuclein” 1869 Isolated Nuclein Friedrich Miescher, a Swiss researcher, noticed an unknown precipitate in his work with white blood cells. Upon isolating the material, he noted that it resisted protein-digesting enzymes. Why is it important that the material was not digested by the enzymes? Further work led him to the discovery that the substance contained carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and large amounts of phosphorus with no sulfur.

  • Physics Today - February 2003
    Physics Today - February 2003 Rosalind Franklin and the Double Helix Although she made essential contributions toward elucidating the structure of DNA, Rosalind Franklin is known to many only as seen through the distorting lens of James Watson's book, The Double Helix. by Lynne Osman Elkin - California State University, Hayward In 1962, James Watson, then at Harvard University, and Cambridge University's Francis Crick stood next to Maurice Wilkins from King's College, London, to receive the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their "discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material." Watson and Crick could not have proposed their celebrated structure for DNA as early in 1953 as they did without access to experimental results obtained by King's College scientist Rosalind Franklin. Franklin had died of cancer in 1958 at age 37, and so was ineligible to share the honor. Her conspicuous absence from the awards ceremony--the dramatic culmination of the struggle to determine the structure of DNA--probably contributed to the neglect, for several decades, of Franklin's role in the DNA story. She most likely never knew how significantly her data influenced Watson and Crick's proposal. Franklin was born 25 July 1920 to Muriel Waley Franklin and merchant banker Ellis Franklin, both members of educated and socially conscious Jewish families. They were a close immediate family, prone to lively discussion and vigorous debates at which the politically liberal, logical, and determined Rosalind excelled: She would even argue with her assertive, conservative father. Early in life, Rosalind manifested the creativity and drive characteristic of the Franklin women, and some of the Waley women, who were expected to focus their education, talents, and skills on political, educational, and charitable forms of community service.

  • Francis Crick and the Structure of Helical Biomolecules
    1 A-DNA and B-DNA: Comparing their Historical X-Ray Fibre Diffraction Images. Amand A. Lucas Facultés Universitaires Notre-Dame de la Paix, 61 rue de Bruxelles, B5000 Namur, Belgium e-mail : [email protected] Abstract. A-DNA and B-DNA are two quite distinct molecular conformations which double stranded DNA drawn into a fibre can assume, depending on the water content of the fibre. The corresponding historic X-ray fibre diffraction diagrams, measured respectively by Wilkins and Gosling and by Franklin and Gosling in the early 1950’s, played an equally crucial role in the discovery of the double helical structure of the molecule by Watson and Crick in 1953. The purpose of the present paper is to provide a didactic and comparative explanation of the structural content of the two diagrams treated on the same footing. This will be accomplished by two methods. The first, intended for science students and professionals, relies on a basic introduction to helical diffraction theory. The second, accessible to a much wider readership, will make use of the optical transform method by which both A and B X-ray images can be simulated optically. The simulations are conducted with a simple laser pointer and a dozen optical diffraction gratings, all held on a single diffraction slide. The gratings have been specially designed to pinpoint just which of the structural element of the molecule is responsible for each of the revealing features of the fibre diffraction images. Keywords audience :general public, continuing education Domain : chemical education research, history, public understanding Pedagogy : hands-on learning, manipulative Topic : biophysical chemistry, conformational analysis, X-ray crystallography 1 2 A-DNA and B-DNA: Comparing their Historical X-Ray Fibre Diffraction Images.

  • Celebrating the Work of a Neglected Scientific Pioneer 16 June 2014
    Celebrating the work of a neglected scientific pioneer 16 June 2014 lay the foundations for the 1953 discovery of its double-helical structure by the Cambridge scientists James Watson and Francis Crick. Yet while they went on to win the Nobel Prize, Professor Astbury's name is barely remembered outside Leeds. Setting Professor Astbury and his work against the wider social and historical backdrop of the time, The Man in the Monkeynut Coat, by Visiting Fellow Kersten Hall, explores the life of this long neglected pioneer. The book also argues that Professor Astbury's true scientific legacy extends far beyond DNA. Using the method of X-ray diffraction which had been developed at Leeds a few years earlier by his mentor, Sir William Bragg, Cavendish Professor of Physics at Leeds from 1908-1915, Professor Astbury blazed the trail in using this technique to explore the physical structure of the giant molecules that make up living things.

  • The Three-Dimensional Structure of Proteins S-45
    c04TheThree-DimensionalStructureofProteins.qxd 12/6/12 4:15 PM Page S-44 chapter The Three-Dimensional 4 Structure of Proteins 1. Properties of the Peptide Bond In x-ray studies of crystalline peptides, Linus Pauling and Robert Corey found that the CON bond in the peptide link is intermediate in length (1.32 Å) between a typical CON single bond (1.49 Å) and a CPN double bond (1.27 Å). They also found that the peptide bond is pla- nar (all four atoms attached to the C—N group are located in the same plane) and that the two a-carbon atoms attached to the CON are always trans to each other (on opposite sides of the peptide bond). (a) What does the length of the CON bond in the peptide linkage indicate about its strength and its bond order (i.e., whether it is single, double, or triple)? (b) What do the observations of Pauling and Corey tell us about the ease of rotation about the CON peptide bond? Answer (a) The higher the bond order (double or triple vs. single), the shorter and stronger are the bonds. Thus, bond length is an indication of bond order. For example, the CPN bond is shorter (1.27 Å) and has a higher order (n ϭ 2.0) than a typical CON bond (length ϭ 1.49 Å, n ϭ 1.0). The length of the CON bond of the peptide link (1.32 Å) indicates that it is intermediate in strength and bond order between a single and double bond.

    © Oxford Brookes University 2012 The Royal College of Physicians and Oxford Brookes University Medical Sciences Video Archive MSVA 038 Professor Maurice Wilkins CBE FRS in interview with Max Blythe Oxford, March 1988 Part One MB Professor Wilkins, your life began a good way from here in New Zealand. Can you tell me about early years, the first decade, parents, background? MW Yes, my parents both came from Dublin and my father did his medical training there. And he was brought up in a rather unusual atmosphere, which derived largely from his grandmother who had a very wide perspective of rather advanced ideas and had been, for example, one year at Girton and was interested in Buddhism and all sorts of religious and philosophical ideas, and holistic health and so forth. And also on the other side of the family there had been a very real interest in advanced ideas of education for women, and my great aunt was one of the first nine women to get a university degree in the British Isles. So that this environment my father was brought up therein - preventive medicine, holistic thinking, natural foods, exercise, all this sort of thing... He went out to New Zealand initially as a GP. My mother, incidentally, came from rather a conventional family with none of these sort of rather unconventional ideas, but she had a lot of basic common sense which I think was a very good thing to balance a certain unworldliness on the other side of the family. My father was a kind of dreamer, rather, and not a very worldly man.
