In this Brief, Joe Jeffers uncovers the life and works of two-time Nobel Laureate Frederick Sanger. Following Sanger’s early life to retirement, Jeffers describes how this celebrated British biochemist became the first person to determine the amino acid sequence of a protein for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1958.
1 sty 2014 · Frederick Sanger, 'the father of genomics', was one of just four scientists to win two Nobel prizes and the only one to receive both in chemistry. Both were awarded for the invention of methods...
FRED SANGER – DOUBLE NOBEL LAUREATE A BIOGRAPHY Considered ‘the father of genomics’, Fred Sanger (1918–2013) paved the way for the modern revolution in our understanding of biology. His pioneering methods for sequencing proteins, RNA and, eventually, DNA earned him two Nobel Prizes. He remains one of only four
Frederick Sanger, English biochemist who was twice the recipient of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. He was first awarded the prize in 1958 for his determination of the structure of the insulin molecule, and in 1980 he shared the prize for his determination of base sequences in nucleic acids.
Walter Gilbert is an American molecular biologist who was awarded a share (with Paul Berg and Frederick Sanger) of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1980 for his development of a method for determining the sequence of nucleotide links in the chainlike molecules of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA).
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1980 was divided, one half awarded to Paul Berg "for his fundamental studies of the biochemistry of nucleic acids, with particular regard to recombinant-DNA", the other half jointly to Walter Gilbert and Frederick Sanger "for their contributions concerning the determination of base sequences in nucleic acids"
16 gru 2013 · Frederick (Fred) Sanger, who died on 19 th November 2013, was one of the most influential scientists of the 20 th century. A committed molecular biologist, he spent all his academic life in Cambridge devising methods for sequencing proteins and nucleic acids. He twice won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry: once in 1958 for protein sequencing, and ...
