It took him eight years and more than 10,000 pea plants to discover the laws of inheritance.

While Meselson and Stahl were doing their experiments, O was isolating the enzyme that synthesizes DNA, called DNA polymerase. I made a cell-free system that replicates DNA.
Who is Arthur Komberg?

Discovered the chromatin structure.
Who is Roger Kornberg?
200
Worked on the genetics of fruit flies.
Who is Thomas Morgan?
200
Used a blender for experimenting
Who are Martha Chase and Alfred Hershey
200
I was interested in protein synthesis. I didn’t know about Crick’s Dogma or his adapter hypothesis. I approached the issue fro a biochemical point of view.
Who is Paul Zamecnik?
200
“Cracked the genetic code”.
Who is Marshall Nirenberg?
200
Nobel Peace Prize winners by splicing DNA.
Who are Richard Roberts and Phillip Sharp?

I emphasized that transposition can provide a means to rapidly reorganize the genome in response to environmental stress.
Who is Barbara McClintock?
