First to describe DNA
-
He developed an electron gravity scale, assigning numbers to how powerful the covalent bond is.
-
Discovered that DNA is the transforming principal / material of heredity
-
Proved genetic elements can change position on the chromosome, causing nearby genes to become active or inactive.
-
Found out the amount of thymine and adenine are identical to the amount of cytosine and guanine.
-
Proved DNA, not proteins, satisfies the frist property of a hereditary molecule.
-
Determined the structure of DNA using X-ray crystallographic technology.
-
They determined that the structure of DNA was a double-helix polymer, each containing a long chain of necleotides wound around eachother.
-
Verified Watson’s and Crick’s model for the structure of DNA.
-
Discovered genetic splicing which slices DNA and combines the strand with other strands of broken DNA.
-
Developed the Sanger Method to figure out the order of bases in a DNA strand.
-
Invented the polymerase chain reaction, which is the reaction where DNA connect with eachother to form a long chain of DNA.
-
Developed the EST method for finding genes using a genome model.
