Friedrich Meischer
Dicoverd nucleoin. He belived that protein was the molecule responsible for heridity. -
Muller
Discovered the x-rays can induce mutations. -
Erwin Chargaff
Chargaff created the nucleotide base pairs. Adenine is paired with thymine and guanine is paired with cytosine. He measured the levels of each acid in different Organisms and found that A was very close to T and G was very close to C -
Watson and crick
Chargaff created the nucleotide base pairs. Adenine is paired with thymine and guanine is paired with cytosine. He measured the levels of each acid in different Organisms and found that A was very close to T and G was very close to C -
Linus Pauling
Pauling thought that DNA was made up of 3 strands. Many scientists analized this and found he was wrong. So this became a race to find the makeup. Chargaff created the nucleotide base pairs. Adenine is paired with thymine and guanine is paired with cytosine. He measured the levels of each acid in different Organisms and found that A was very close to T and G was very close to C -
Seymor Benzer
he discovered that DNA could cross over -
Sydney Brenner
Discovered RNA. This is a messenger molecule. DNA needs to be transported to ribosomes but it is too big to get in so it sends RNA to the ribosomes. -
Frederick Sanger
He discovered DNA sequencing. He discovered that you can make a protein many different ways. -
Thomas Cech
He discoverd that RNA can self replicate itself. -
Steve Fodor
Developed the GeneClip. It allow scientists to basically grow dDNA to help solve issues like cancer.
