-
Published the results of his study on pea plants and the fundamental laws of inheritance.
-
The first to discover that DNA is a molecule.
-
The first to experiment that bacteria is able to transfer genetic information through transformation.
-
Discovered the role of genes that take place during biochemical events in a cell.
-
Indicated that DNA was the carrier of genes in cells, his experiments made way for Watson and Crick's discovery.
-
Found that the amounts of adenine and thymine as cytosine and guanine in DNA.
-
Performed an experiment that proved that DNA was not a protein and that it in fact was genetic material in which traits were inherited.

-
Took images of DNA and essentially because of these images, is the one who discovered the structure of DNA known as the "double helix" but she never got credited.
-
Worked along with Rosalind Franklin who took images of DNA and its structure, but unlike Rosalind Franklin she was credited along with Crick and Watson.
-
Discovered the structure of the DNA is a double helix after taking over the images from Rosalind Franklin and later received the Nobel Prize along with Watson for this discovery.

-
Proved, by using statistics and amino acid protein sequences, that three nucleotides code for one amino acid.
-
Used E. Coli DNA to discover that DNA replication is semi- conservative.

Alongside with Mahlon Hoagland, Paul Zamecnik discovered tRNA. Then Paul Zamecnik and Mahlon Hoagland discovered that ATP had to be activated to become a peptide chain.
