1964
“We can and
should devote ourselves with truly religious devotion to the cause of ensuring
greater fulfillment for the human race in its future destiny. And this involves
a furious and concerted attack on the problem of population; for the control of
population is…a prerequisite for any radical improvement in the human lot.”
Julian Sorell Huxley (826).
“I wish I
had the voice of Homer
To sing of
rectal carcinoma,
Which kills
a lot more chaps, in fact,
Than were
bumped off when Troy was sacked.” John Burdon Sanderson Haldane (701).
Dorothy Mary
Crowfoot-Hodgkin (GB) was awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her
determinations by x-ray techniques of the structures of important biochemical
substances.
Konrad Emil
Bloch (US) and Feodor Felix Konrad Lynen (DE) were awarded the Nobel Prize in
Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning the mechanism and
regulation of the cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism.
David W. Menzel (US) and Ralph F. Vaccaro (US) reported that organic
carbon in aqueous solution may be measured with a precision of ± 0.1 mg C/l
using persulfate as an oxidant. Oxidation is accomplished in sealed ampules.
The evolved CO2 is quantified with an infrared detector (1144).
David A.
Yphantis (US) introduced the ‘meniscus depletion’ (a.k.a. ‘high speed’ and
‘Yphantis’) technique to equilibrium ultracentrifugation of dilute solutions.
This method required spinning the sample at a rotor speed high enough to
deplete the meniscus of macromolecules (1862).
Patrick
Andrews (GB) developed a way to determine the molecular weights of proteins
using Sephadex gel-filtration (38).
Leonard
Ornstein (US) and Baruch J. Davis (US) introduced the use of synthetic
polyacrylamide gels in disc (discontinuous) electrophoresis (395; 1287).
Alfred Zettner (US) and David Seligson (US) were the first to use
atomic absorption spectrophotometry to measure serum calcium (1870).
David L. Trudeau (US) and Esther F. Freier (US) first described
the use of lanthanum in the measurement of calcium in biological fluids (1697).
Henry N. Wagner, Jr. (US), David C. Sabiston, Jr. (US), Masahiro
Iio (US), John G. McAfee (US), Jon K. Meyer (US), and James K. Langan (US)
developed an isotope tracer technique whih allowed them to determine regional
pulmonary blood flow in man (750).
Beverly E.
Pearson Murphy (CA) and Chauncey J. Patee (CA) described a simple, rapid method
for the determination of serum thyroxine, which is based on the specific
binding properties of thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG). One-half ml of the test
sample is deproteinized and the thyroxine thus freed is measured according to
its competition with a fixed amount of thyroxine-I131 for a fixed amount of TBG
(1212).
Arne
Dahlqvist (SE) described a simple method for testing disaccharidase activity.
It has now been used for numerous clinical investigations, especially for
peroral biopsies of the small intestinal mucosa (380; 381).
Gerald Kessler (US) and Morris Wolfman (US) provided the first auto analyzer method for the
simultaneous measurement of calcium and phosphorus without preliminary sample
treatment (939).
Wilfrid G.
Duncombe (GB) devised a method useful in a variety of applications in which the
concentration of long-chain fatty acids extracted from biological materials was
required. Long-chain fatty acids dissolved in chloroform will form
chloroform-soluble copper soaps. The reaction of these with a chromogenic
reagent for copper is the basis for the determination described (471).
Henry N. Wagner, Jr. (US), David C. Sabiston, Jr. (US), John G. McAfee
(US), Donald Tow (US), and Howard S. Stern (US) developed a way to use
radioiodine labeled macroaggregates of albumin in the rapid diagnosis of acute
pulmonary embolism (1738).
Luis
Federico Leloir (AR), Carlos Eugenio Cardini (AR), Jose M. Olavarría (AR), Sara
H. Goldemberg (AR), and Hector Carminatti (AR) discovered that glycogen can be
synthesized by a process in which the reactive intermediate uridine diphosphate
glucose (UDP-glucose) transfers glucose to the growing glycogen chain. They
found that galactose is broken down to yield glucose in a similar pathway. They
identified the enzyme glucose1-phosphate
kinase acting in a separate glycogen synthesis. The product of this
reaction, glucose 1,6-diphosphate, is a coenzyme of the glycolysis pathway
enzyme, phosphoglucomutase. They went
on to identify galactokinase and
discovered that the product, galactose 1-phosphate, is converted into glucose
1-phosphate (1020-1023).
Herman
Moritz Kalckar (DK-US), Beatriz Braganea (DK), and Agnete Munch-Petersen (DK)
had presented direct evidence that the synthesis of UDP galactose does occur in
extracts of the yeast Saccharomyces
fragilis, catalyzed by galactose-1-P
uridyl transferase (891).
Malcolm
Daniel Lane (US), Karl L. Rominger (DE), David L. Young (US), and Feodor Felix
Konrad Lynen (DE), using Propionibacterium
shermanii, showed that the synthetase
catalyzed a two-step reaction. The first step involved the ATP-dependent
formation of biotinyl-5'-AMP and pyrophosphate after which the biotinyl group
was transferred from the AMP derivative to the appropriate lysyl epsilon-amino group of the apotranscarboxylase
(993). Synthetase had been shown to catalyze biotin
loading onto the apoenzyme.
Carlo
Gregolin (IT), Elena Ryder (VE), Robert C. Warner (US), Albrecht K.
Kleinschmidt (US), Huei-Che Chang (US), and Malcolm Daniel Lane (US) described
the molecular characteristics of chicken acetyl
coenzyme A carboxylase, including its reversible inter-conversion between
protomeric and polymeric forms. They determined that the carboxylase has a
binding site for citrate and another for acetyl-CoA and that citrate binding
might be involved in regulating the enzyme (672).
Ras B.
Guchhait (US), S. Efthimios Polakis (US), Donald Hollis (US), Catherine
Fenselau (US), and Malcolm Daniel Lane (US) used the acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase system from Escherichia coli to provide definitive evidence that the ureido-N
of biotin is the site of carboxylation (681).
S. Efthimios
Polakis (US), Ras B. Guchhait (US), Eberhard E. Zwergel (US), Malcolm Daniel
Lane (US), and Terrance G. Cooper (US) gave a thorough analysis of the acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase system
from Escherichia coli. They define
the requirements and properties of isotopic exchange and stoichiometric
reactions representative of the two half- reactions in acetyl-CoA carboxylation
and describe studies using prosthetic group and intermediate model derivatives
as substrates to elucidate the mechanisms of the partial reactions (1350).
CIBA
Chemical Company introduced the herbicide fluometuron, a substituted urea,
useful in cotton (Gossypium spp.) and
sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum). Ref
W. Robert
Jenkins (US) presented a simple, rapid, and inexpensive method for the
extraction of nematodes from soil (850).
Clinton Edward Edgerton Ballou (US) and Yuan Chuan Lee (TW-US-TW)
determined the structures of
the family of mannosyl phosphoinositides in the mycobacteria (76; 1015).
Karl Sune
Detlof Bergström (SE), Henry Danielsson (SE), and Bengt Samuelson (SE) demonstrated
the enzymatic conversion of
arachidonic acid to prostaglandin E2 (127). Because arachidonic acid
is synthesized from linoleic acid in humans, this discovery helped
establish prostaglandins as products of the metabolism of
essential fatty acids.
Vladimir P.
Skipski (US), Robert F. Peterson (US), and Marion Barclay (US) described the conversion
of their previously-developed procedure for qualitative separation of
phospholipids by thin-layer chromatography to a quantitative analysis which
permitted the determination of the main known phospholipids in animal tissues (1549).
Choh Hao Li
(CN-US) and Yehudith Burk (US) isolated and purified beta-lipotropin (beta-LPH) (1034).
Choh Hao Li
(CN-US), Livio Barnafi (CL), Michel Chretien (US) and David Chung (US)
determined the amino-acid sequence of beta-LPH. They found contained within the
91 residues of beta-LPH the 18-residue sequence of melanocyte-stimulating
hormone (MSH). Beta-LPH may be viewed as a prohormone from which MSH is derived (1033).
Michel
Chretien (US) and Choh Hao Li (CN-US) isolated, purified, and characterized
gamma-lipotropin hormone from sheep pituitary glands. It consists of the first
58 residues of beta-lipotropin and contains the MSH sequence (298).
J. Michael
Poston (US), Kazuoki Kuratomi (US), and Earl Reece Stadtman (US) determined
that methyl-B12 is involved in acetate synthesis and is the first step in the
acetyl-CoA pathway (1359). This was a
major clue to unraveling the acetyl-CoA pathway.
Martin
Rodbell (US) isolated individual fat cells then showed that insulin bounds
directly to receptors on these cells and stimulates glucose metabolism (1419).
Merton
Franklin Utter (US), D. Bruce Keech (US), and Michael C. Scrutton (US)
demonstrated that acetyl-CoA regulates the activity of pyruvate carboxylase (combines CO2 with pyruvate in
glucogenesis), thus providing one of the first examples of allosteric control
of enzymes (1498; 1720).
Myron Lee
Bender (US), Ferenc J. Kézdy (US), and Claude R. Gunter (US) concluded that the
enzymatic reactivity of alpha-chymotrypsin could be accounted for by (1) the
intramolecular character of the enzymatic process and the concomitant increase
in effective concentration of the catalytic group(s); (2) general basic
catalysis by imidazole; (3) the change in rate-determining step of the amide
hydrolysis to an alcoholysis; (4) the freezing of the substrate in a
conformation resembling the transition state, and (5) the general acidic
catalysis by imidazole (119).
Waclaw
Szybalski (US) and Zofia Opara-Zubinska (US) concluded that DNA in which
thymidine is replaced by 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) in either or both strands
is many times more sensitive to damage by x-rays, short and medium wavelength
ultraviolet light, subcritical heat,
and hydrodynamic shear (1640).
Kendrick W.
Dungan (US) and Paul M. Lish (US) were the first to describe sotalol (472). Initially
it was used as a beta-blocker but was later demonstrated to have effects on the
action potential (repolarization delay), which led to its use as a class III
antiarrhythmic drug (1540).
Sipra Guha
(IN) and Satish C. Maheshwari (IN) obtained haploid plants of Datura innoxia Mill (Angel's
trumpet)
from anther cultures (683; 684).
William R.
Sharp (US), Donald K. Dougall (US), and Elton F. Paddock (US) obtained haploid
plantlets and callus from immature pollen grains of tobacco (Nicotiana) and tomato (Lycopersicon) (1515).
Henry M.
Cathey (US) explained that chemical growth retardants (8 families) block cell
elongation of stems without affecting leaf formation, resulting in compact,
stress-resistant plants. With many woody plants the treated plants initiate
flowers earlier than typical for the species. Chemical growth retardants are
one of the reasons for the house plant boom in America. They have permitted the
sizing of plants to fit any space (279).
Yechiel Becker (IL) and Wolfgang Karl Joklik (AT-AU-US)
investigated the genesis of vaccinia virus specific polyribosomes. Messenger
RNAs were found to combine first with 40 S subribosomal particles
(the free half-life of mRNA being about 30 s) and then with
60 S subribosomal particles to form polyribosomes. 40 S and
60 S subribosomal particles are always present in strictly equivalent
numbers; they are made in the nucleus and enter the cytoplasm
as individual entities (111).
Abraham Marcus (US) and John Feeley (US) analyzed the mechanism
for protein synthesis in intact seeds and isolated seed embryos. They found
that the protein synthesis apparatus is functional in the ungerminated seed,
yet imbibition is necessary if sufficient messenger RNA for germination is to
be made (1108).
Wolfgang Karl Joklik (AT-AU-US) found that uncoating of poxvirus
DNA is a two-step process.
Enzymes present in uninfected cells
release the viral cores and the viral inducer protein.
The second, namely the breakdown of cores to liberate the viral
genome, requires de novo
synthesis of the uncoating protein elicited
by the inducer protein (870).
Traian Losef
Stopler (RO), Victoria Camuescu (RO), Mihaela Voiculescu (RO), J. Donald
Coonrod (US), Peter J. Leadley (US), and Theodore C. Eickhoff (US) successfully
isolated Bacillus cereus as the
etiological agent from cases of bronchial pneumonia. It was cultured from the
blood and pleural fluid (341; 1611). Bacillus
cereus is an opportunistic human pathogen and is occasionally associated
with infections, causing periodontal diseases and other more serious
infections.
Bacillus
cereus
can spread easily to many types of foods such as plants, eggs, meat, and dairy
products, and is known for causing 25% of food-borne intoxications due to its
secretion of emetic toxins and enterotoxins (1645).
Lucas M.
Wijnands (NL), J.B. Dufrenne (NL), Marcel H. Zwietering (NL), and Frans M. van
Leusden (NL) reported that immunocompromised patients are susceptible to
bacteremia, endocarditis, meningitis, pneumonia, and endophthalmitis caused by Bacillus cereus (1809). Its potential to cause systemic
infections is of current public health and biomedical concerns.
David
Pettijohn (US) and Philip C. Hanawalt (US), using Escherichia coli strain TAU-bar, found that in ultraviolet-resistant
organisms a mechanism for repair replication exists in which damaged
single-strand regions of the chromosome can be excised and replaced, using the
undamaged DNA strand as template (1337).
Anadi N.
Chatterjee (US), James Theodore Park (US), Pauline M. Meadow (GB), John S.
Anderson (US), and Jack Leonard Strominger (US) determined that the second
phase of the synthesis of bacterial cell wall material occurs in the membrane
of the cell. Here UDP-acetylmuramyl-pentapeptide and UDP-acetylglucosamine are
joined to form a linear peptidoglycan (293; 1137; 1614). The
antibiotics ristocetin, vancomycin, and bacitracin inhibit this second phase of cell wall synthesis.
Maria C. Michaelides
(US), Roger Sherman (US), Ernst Helmreich (US), Carl Ferdinand Cori (US), Agnes
Ullmann (FR), Pindaros Roy Vagelos (FR-US), Jacques Lucien Monod (FR), Donald
L. DeVincenzi (US), and Jerry L. Hedrick (US) presented evidence that muscle glycogen phosphorylase b is an allosteric enzyme influenced by 5’AMP at the
allosteric site (430; 743; 1154; 1712).
Merrill Burr
(US) and Daniel Edward Koshland, Jr. (US) developed a technique called reporter groups to correlate function
with structure in protein molecules. A chemical group sensitive to
environmental changes and which will transmit a signal to an appropriate
detector is introduced into a specific position in the protein (236).
Robert Tod
Schimke (US) was the first to report protein degradation as a regulatory
process and thereby established a new field of biochemistry (1481).
Donald G.
Comb (US) and Solomon Katz (US) presented evidence that tRNA precursor
molecules are synthesized in the nucleolus move to the cytoplasm where base
methylation occurs and perhaps other alterations, then moves back to the
nucleolus (327).
Luigi Gorini
(IT-US) and Eva Kataja (US) presented evidence that streptomycin was altering
the specificity of translation via an interaction with the ribosome. They
suggested that, "the ribosomal structure could include the accuracy of the
reading of the code during translation" (650).
Julian E.
Davies (US), Luigi Gorini (US), Eva Kataja (US), Walter Gilbert (US), Bernard
David Davis (US), Theophil Staehelin (US) and Matthew Stanley Meselson (US)
determined that streptomycin and related antibiotics interfere with the protein
translation process (392-394; 649; 651; 1583).
Malcolm
Andrew Ferguson-Smith (GB) discovered that the pattern of multiple associations
suggests that three long and two short chromosomal bivalents are capable of
forming terminal nucleoli during pachytene. The evidence suggests that these
five bivalents are the five pairs of satellited chromosomes in the human
mitotic ideogram (533).
Jonathan R.
Warner (US) and Alexander Rich (US) found that each ribosome possesses two tRNA
binding sites. They postulated that the two binding sites are adjacent. One of
them they called the A site, which binds aminoacyl tRNA, and the other the P
site, which binds peptidyl tRNA (1762).
Ute
Geigenmuller (DE) and Knud H. Nierhaus (DE) postulated the existence of a third
tRNA binding site on the surface of the ribosome, the E site (Exit). When the
tRNA from the P site has had its peptide chain transferred to the adjacent
tRNA, it does not leave the ribosome promptly. Rather, it delays slightly at
the E site (604).
Ralph B.
Arlinghaus (US), Joseph Schaeffer (US), Richard S. Schweet (US), Joanne M.
Ravel (US), Jean Lucas-Lenard (US), Anne-Lise Haenni (US), Richard W. Erbe
(US), and Philip Leder (US) found that the so-called T factor, together with
GTP, participates in the attachment of aminoacyl tRNAs to ribosomes (45; 511; 1073; 1389).
Te-Wen Chang
(US) and Louis Weinstein (US) report that the antibiotic cephalothin inhibits cell wall peptidoglycan synthesis (290).
Gordon
Leslie Ada (AU), Gustav Joseph Victor Nossal (AU), John Pye (AU), and Andrew
Abbot (AU) described the preparation and physical and chemical properties of
the monomeric protein flagellin and
of the formation in vitro of
polymerized forms which appear similar in appearance to the parent flagella
particles from Salmonella adelaide (4).
Max Bernard
Lurie (LT-US)
discovered that macrophages must be activated to digest cells of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (1079).
Irwin A.
Rose (US), Jessie V.B. Warms (US), and Edward L. O’Connell (US) observed that
during glycolysis inorganic phosphate counteracts the glucose-6-phosphate
inhibition of hexokinase (1429).
Cyril Moore
(US) and Berton Charles Pressman (US) presented evidence that the antibiotic valinomycin acts as an ionophore that
transports potassium ions down its electrochemical gradient and across the cell
membrane. It is an energy dependent accumulation of potassium ions in
mitochondria (1192).
Daniel
Nathans (US) demonstrated that puromycin
inhibits protein synthesis by being incorporated into the growing polypeptide
chain, resulting in premature termination of translation (1218).
Alwin Max
Pappenheimer, Jr. (US), R. John Collier (US), Ronald S. Goor (US), Elizabeth
Ames (US), D. Michael Gill (US), Robin Brown (US), James T. Kurnick (US),
Tasuku Honjo (JP), Yasutomi Nishizuka (JP), Osamu Hayaishi (JP), Iwao Kato
(JP), Tsuyoshi Uchida (JP), and Annabel A. Harper (US) demonstrated that
diphtheria toxin acts by inhibiting protein synthesis. It specifically
inactivates elongation factor 2 (EF-2) by an ADP-ribosylation reaction in the
presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) (324; 627; 642-644; 797; 1303; 1709).
Humberto
Fernández-Morán (VE), Takuzo Oda (JP),
Paul V. Blair (US), and David Ezra Green (US) demonstrated the presence of
thousands of elementary particles (EP) embedded within the inner membrane of
mitochondria from various sources. Each EP was composed of: (1) a head (80-100
angstroms), (2) a cylindrical stalk (about 50 angstroms long and 30-40
angstroms wide), and (3) a base piece (40 X 110 angstroms) (534).
Joseph E.
Varner (US), G. Ram Chandra (US), and Maarten J. Chrispeels (US) discovered
that the plant hormone gibberellin
regulates the expression of alpha-amylase
in barley aleurone cells at the level of the gene (299; 300; 1728).
Myron C.
Ledbetter (US), Keith R. Porter (US), David M. Phillips (US), Lewis G. Tilney
(US), Joseph Bryan (US), Doris J. Bush (US), Keigi Fujiwara (US), Mark S.
Mooseker (US), Douglas B. Murphy (US), and Daniel H. Snyder (US) described the
13-protofilament structure of microtubules which they found to be widespread
among many organisms (1007; 1339; 1674).
Fritz Miller
(DE) and George Emil Palade (RO-US) carried out one of the first examples of
combined cytochemistry and electron microscopy. They found that enzymes and
substrates colocalize in lysosomes (1161).
James L.
Gowans (GB), E. Julie Knight (GB), and Vincent T. Marchesi (US) showed that
lymphocytes recognize post-capillary high-walled endothelial venule (HEV) cells
that are present under normal circumstances only in lymphoid tissues. These
lymphocytes when taken from a lymphoid site tend to return, or home back to the same site when
reinjected, suggesting that they possess homing receptors (660; 1105).
Gerhard
Malnic (US), Ruth M. Klose (US), Gerhard Giebisch (US), Cristobal G. Duarte
(US), Francoise Chomety (US), Margarida de Mello Aires (BR), Fred S. Wright
(US), Nikolaus Strieder (US), and Nicole B. Fowler (US) perfected the method of
performing micropuncture and microperfusion studies on the distal tubule of the
nephron. They unequivocally demonstrated that potassium is reabsorbed by the
proximal tubule and the loop of Henle, that potassium reabsorption by these
nephron segments is constant in a variety of experimental and metabolic
conditions, and that it is the distal tubule that primarily determines the
amount of potassium excreted in the urine by either continuing potassium
reabsorption, or by secreting potassium into the tubular fluid. Furthermore,
they provided the first insight into the cellular mechanisms of potassium
transport by the distal tubule (464; 1097-1100; 1843).
Michael
Francis Addison Woodruff (GB) and James L. Boak (GB) demonstrated that animals
experience a stimulation of their immune system and an inhibition of
transplantable tumors when injected with species of Corynebacterium parvum (1834).
Robert S.
Edgar (US) and Ilga Lielausis (US) isolated temperature sensitive mutants of T4
bacteriophage and showed that its linkage map had no ends, and so could be
drawn as a circle (487).
Marshall
Warren Nirenberg (US), and Philip Leder (US) announced their technique by which
artificially synthesized RNA trinucleotides cause specific tRNAs to bind to the
surface of ribosomes. These tRNAs each carry a specific amino acid called for
by the one-word codon in the synthetic trinucleotide. Using this methodology,
they rapidly determined many of the codons used by the cell to specify amino
acids. These became part of what is now called the RNA dictionary (446; 728; 1008; 1239; 1240; 1332).
James Dewey
Watson (US), Yasutomi Nishizuka (JP), Fritz Albert Lipmann (US), Julian Gordon
(CH), Jean Lucas-Lenard (US), and Maxwell E. Gottesman (US), proposed that GTP
and the G (ribosome-linked GTPase)
factor are involved in messenger RNA movement and, simultaneously, in
translocation of the newly synthesized peptidyl-tRNA from the aminoacyl to the
peptidyl site (1057; 1242; 1767).
Francois
Jacob (FR), Agnes Ullmann (FR), and Jacques Lucien Monod (FR) discovered the
element in the genetic mechanism of control in microorganisms at which molecules
of the enzymes that make messenger RNA must attach to start transcribing from
DNA into RNA. They named this element the promoter (841).
Patricia
Farnes (US), Barbara E. Barker (US), L.E. Brownhill (US), and Herbert Fanger
(US) discovered that the extract of pokeweed is mitogenic to lymphocytes of
peripheral blood (528).
Hayden G.
Coon (US) and Robert D. Cahn (US) were the first to obtain in vitro clones of euploid cells that retained their specialized
function. They also showed that this specialized function could be stabilized (338-340).
Tsvi Sachs
(IL) and Kenneth Vivian Thimann (GB-US) showed that the growth of axillary
buds, which remain dormant in the presence of terminal buds, could be initiated
by the exogenous application of cytokinins. Thus, one could induce the release
of lateral buds on a growing shoot with an intact terminal bud by growing the
shoot in a medium containing cytokinin. This would release buds from apical
dominance (1452).
Arnold E.
Reif (US) and Joan M.V. Allen (US) discovered the theta—later changed to thy—antigenic
marker for thymus-derived (T) lymphocytes and found it to be specific for
lymphocytes of thymic origin (1396).
Herman N.
Eisen (US), Gregory W. Siskind (US), and Baruj Benaceraff (US) discovered that
a feature of the immune response to T cell-dependent antigens is an increase in
the average affinity of antigen-specific antibody during the response (502; 1541).
Stanley D.
Beck (US), Nancy J. Alexander (US), John L. Shane (US), and Irene B. Colvin
(US) investigated whether the hormone
proctodone, which they discovered and named, plays a role during diapause
development in insects. They proposed a two-oscillator model to explain the
interaction between the secretion of proctodone and the secretion of
prothoracicotropic hormone from the cerebral neurosecretory system. This model
suggested that an eight-hour subcircadian proctodone rhythm is phase set by the
onset of darkness, and that an eight-hour cerebral neurosecretory rhythm is
phase set by the onset of illumination. They concluded that proctodone
activates the neurosecretory system under long days, when the two rhythms are
in phase, but this does not occur under short days, when the two rhythms are
out of phase (104; 108-110).
Philip
Jacobus Hoedemaeker (NL), Jules J. Abels (NL), J.J. Wachters (NL), Albertus
Arends (NL), and Hendrik Omgo Nieweg (NL) determined the site of intrinsic
factor production to be parietal cells of the stomach in man, monkey, rabbit,
guinea pig, cat, and ox; peptic cells in the rat and mouse, and pyloric
duodenal cells in the hog (778; 779).
Ralph
Gräsbeck (FI), Kai Lennart Simons (DE), and Irma Sinkkonen (FI) isolated
intrinsic factors from human gastric juice and determined it to be a 60K Da
glycoprotein (664; 665).
Patrick B.
Jones (US), Sidney P. Kent (US) and Charles E. Butterworth, Jr. (US) determined
the chemical and biological properties of fractions derived from hog intrinsic
factor concentrate by disc electrophoresis (874).
Kurt J. Isselbacher (US) and Norton J. Greenberger (US) reported that
alcohol has many effects on hepatic, carbohydrate, protein, and lipid
metabolism. Many of the actions of alcohol on the liver cell are of a direct or
toxic nature. Other effects are indirect and the result of changes in the redox
state of the hepatocyte secondary to ethanol oxidation. Their knowledge of the
metabolic actions of alcohol has provided insight into the mechanism of
alcohol-induced hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia, and hypoglycemia (836).
Nasrollah T.
Shahidi (US), David G. Nathan (US), and Louis K. Diamond (US) during
examination of two sibling patients discovered an error in iron metabolism
characterized by massive hepatic iron deposition and absent stainable bone
marrow iron stores. The association of this discrepancy with the chronic
hypochromic anemia present in these two siblings is unique (1508).
John E.
Phillips (CA)
demonstrated
that active ion transport occurs in the locust rectum. The coupling of
metabolic energy to the movement of compounds across the epithelium is vital
for osmoregulation and for the retention of ions, water and nutrients.
Microelectrode measurements showed that chloride transport set up an electrical
gradient that facilitated the movement of sodium and potassium from the lumen
into the hemolymph. The most startling and significant finding was that water
could be transported from the rectum to the hemolymph when the rectum was
filled with a solution of 800-mOsm xylose, even though the hemolymph remained
at a lower concentration of about 400-mOsm. He demonstrated that rectal
capacity for ion and water transport exceeds the rate at which ions and water
enter the rectum in the urine. His results provided a mechanistic explanation
for the observation that the fecal pellets of Schistocerca are in equilibrium
with a very concentrated solution, but essentially devoid of sodium, potassium
and chloride ions. Phillips had simultaneously shown how ions and water were
retained in the locust under desiccating conditions and clarified the
mechanisms by which highly concentrated feces were produced (1340-1342).
Theodore
Thomas Puck (US) carried out experiments in which he demonstrated that the
large variation in the apparent radiosensitivity of different organs is due
essentially to regional differences in the rate of cell turnover (1367).
Liliana
Lubínska (PL) showed that axonal transport is not a simple flow of axoplasm.
She described in nerve fibers the retrograde and anterograde movements of
radioactive acetylcholinesterase (1072).
Susumu
Hagiwara (JP-US), Ken-ichi Naka (JP), Shiko Chichibu (JP), and Charles Edwards
(US) described ionic mechanisms in active membranes and especially calcium
channels. They discovered blocking ions, flux saturation, and that
intracellular calcium blocks calcium channels. All this work was done in muscle
fibers of the giant barnacle (493; 698-700).
Graham Hoyle
(US) and Thomas Smyth, Jr. (US) had discovered the giant muscle fibers in the
North Pacific barnacle (807).
Ian
MacPherson (GB) and Luc Montagnier (FR) demonstrated that with polyoma virus
there is a systematic relationship between dose of virus and number of transformed
colonies of cells (1089).
William F.H.
Jarrett (GB), William B. Martin (GB), George W. Crighton (GB), Roger G. Dalton
(GB), Mary F. Stewart (US-GB), Elizabeth M. Crawford (GB), and F. Davie (GB)
showed feline
leukemia to be transmissible experimentally in cats using cell-free extracts of
lymphosarcoma tissue from a spontaneous field case. Type C virus particles were
demonstrated in the experimentally induced tumor and in cells cultured from it.
This was the first transmission of a spontaneous mammalian leukemia (847; 848).
John W.
Littlefield (US) introduced HAT medium
(hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine) for the selective growth of somatic cell hybrids (1059). Together with the technique of cell fusion, this made
somatic-cell genetics possible.
Kjeld Adrian
Marcker (DK) and Frederick Sanger (GB) discovered that when protein synthesis
occurs in Escherichia coli the first
amino acid in every new polypeptide is N-formylmethionine brought to the
ribosome by N-formyl-tRNAf (1106).
David
Guthrie Catcheside (GB-AU), Adrienne P. Jessop (GB), and Brian R. Smith (GB)
discovered rec genes in Neurospora. These are unlinked or
nonadjacent genes, which influence local recombination frequencies (276).
Edmund
Brisco Ford (GB) coined ecological
genetics to refer to the study of evolution in action by a mixture of
laboratory and fieldwork (565).
Edwin T. Mertz (US), Oliver Evans Nelson, Jr. (US), Lynn S. Bates
(US), and Olivia A. Vernon (US) demonstrated that the opaque 2 and floury 2
mutants of maize (Zea mays L.)
produce seed containing elevated concentrations of two essential amino acids,
lysine and tryptophan, that are deficient in normal corn seed (1148; 1149).
Fred B.
Abeles (US) and Bernard Rubinstein (US) found that auxin stimulated ethylene
production, and that it was the gas which promoted abscission after the ability
of auxin to delay aging was lost. This paper provided experimental proof for
the principle that ethylene could act as a second messenger in some of the
effects of auxin on plant growth and development (3).
Marcia L.
Craig (US) and Elizabeth Buckley Shull Russell (US) demonstrated that in mice
embryonic hemoglobins are expressed only in the large nucleated erythrocytes
from the yolk sac while adult hemoglobins are produced in the fetal liver (363). This
finding supported arguments that differential gene expression is dependent on
factors intrinsic to ontogenic stages.
Eugene H.
Labrec (US), Herman Schneider (US), Thomas J. Magnani (US), and Samuel B.
Formal (US) found that the essential step in the pathogenesis of bacillary
dysentery (Shigella flexneri) is the
invasion of the colonic mucosa (984).
M.V.
Voino-Yasenetsky (HU), Th. N. Khavkin (HU-RU), Akio Takeuchi (US), Samuel B.
Formal (US), Eugene H. Labrec (US), and Helmuth Sprinz (US) determined that the
process of invasion by Shigella
includes penetration into epithelial cells, intracellular replication leading
to host cell death, and spreading to adjacent cells and conjunctive tissue of
intestinal villi (1644; 1732).
Philippe J.
Sansonetti (FR), Dennis J. Kopecko (US), and Samuel B. Formal (US) discovered
that a plasmid within Shigella is
encoded with the information necessary to invade host cells (1467; 1468).
Anand S.
Sarabhai (IN), Anthony O.W. Stretton (US), Sydney Brenner (ZA-GB), and
Antoinette Bolle (CH), working with the T4 virus of Escherichia coli, demonstrated that nonsense codons determine the length of polypeptides to be
incorporated into the head protein of the virus. This strongly suggested that nonsense codons act as termination
signals during polypeptide synthesis (1470).
Robin
Holliday (GB) proposed that genetic recombination in yeast proceeds through two
single stranded breaks made simultaneously at the same sites on the two DNA
molecules to be recombined (the Holliday
Junction). During recombination, the nicked strands unwind then invade the
DNA of the opposite homolog by rewinding with one of its DNA chains. At this point
the rewinding structure rotates to take on a crossed configuration. In his
honor this crossed configuration is called a Holliday intermediate (795).
Donald D.
Hurst (US), Seymour Fogel (US), and Robert K. Mortimer (US) investigated the
relationship between gene conversion and crossing-over at several different
loci in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
They demonstrated that for a given marker about 50% of conversion events are
associated with crossing-over, whereas the other 50% do not show an associated
crossing-over (823). Gene conversion represents the
nonreciprocal transfer of information between two homologous sequences where
one allele is duplicated while another is lost.
Jack William
Szostak (CA-US), Terry L. Orr-Weaver (US), Rodney J. Rothstein (US), and
Franklin W. Stahl (US) proposed the double-strand-break repair (DSBR) model to
explain tetrad data generated by Saccharomyces
cerevisiae matings (1638).
Alain
Nicolas (FR), Douglas Treco (US), Neil P. Schultes (US), Liang Cao (US), Eric
Alani (US), Nancy Kleckner (US), and Jack William Szostak (CA-US) went on to
provide strong support for this conjecture, showing that double-strand breaks
do occur at the time and place of initiation of meiotic recombination and that
genetic defects that block the appearance of double-strand breaks also block
the initiation of recombination (258; 1236).
Hunt Potter (US) and David Dressler (US-GB) demonstrated the
validity of the Holliday model of recombination (1360).
Paul Ichiro
Terasaki (US) and John D. McClelland (US) developed the microcytotoxicity test,
critical for further development and practical use of HLA typing (1661).
Fritz H.
Bach (US) and Kurt Hirschhorn (US) along with Barbara Bain (CA), Magdalene R.
Vas (CA), and Louis Lowenstein (CA) independently developed the Mixed
Lymphocyte Culture (MLC) Test of histocompatibility (59; 68).
Richard J.
Haslam (GB) observed that platelets themselves under the influence of a
suitable agent such as thrombin, release enough adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to
induce their own aggregation (723).
Robert Gwyn
MacFarlane (GB) set out for the first time the concept of blood coagulation as
a cascade of eight enzymatic reactions which culminate in the formation of
fibrin, and which involve activation of factors, as well as biochemical
amplification and negative feedback to control the process (1085).
Roger L. Lundblad (US) and Earl Warren Davie (US) suggested that
activated Christmas factor converted
anti-hemophilic factor to an active form,
and it in turn converted Stuart factor to an active form
in the presence of phospholipid and calcium (1078).
Earl Warren Davie (US) and Oscar D. Ratnoff (US) presented a blood
coagulation scheme based on the concept that clotting factors were present in
blood in an inactive or precursor form and were converted to active enzymes in
a step-by- step manner most likely via limited proteolysis they called a
"waterfall sequence
for intrinsic blood clotting" (390).
Later the extrinsic (now called the tissue factor pathway) was added.
Rose Payne
(US) Millie Tripp (US), Joan Weigle (CH-US), Walter Fred Bodmer (GB), and Julia
Bodmer (GB) defined the allelic system now known as HLA-A 1, 2, and 3 (1315).
Jack S.
Remington (US), Kenneth L. Vosti (US), Arthur Lietze (US), A. Leonard Zimmerman
(US), Malcolm S. Artenstein (US), Joseph A. Bellanti (US), and Edward L.
Buescher (US) simultaneously reported that immunoglobulin alpha (IgA) is the
predominant immunoglobulin in normal human nasal secretions collected by lavage
of the nasal cavities with isotonic salt solution (48; 1398).
Gustav
Joseph Victor Nossal (AU), Aleksander Szenberg (AU), Gordon Leslie Ada (AU),
and Caroline M. Austin (AU) observed that individual B cells can switch
immunoglobulin (Ig) class upon activation (1256).
Tohru
Kataoka (JP), Toshiaki Kawakami (JP), Naoki Takahashi (JP), Tasuku Honjo (JP), and
Akira Shimizu (JP) elucidated the mechanism of immunoglobulin class switching
(class-switch recombination), whereby B cells switch their antibody production
from one antibody type to another depending on the type of antigen with which
they are presented (906; 1519).
Masamichi Muramatsu (JP), Kazuo Kinoshita
(JP), Sidonia Fagarasan (JP), Shuichi Yamada (JP), Yoichi Shinkai (JP), and
Tasuku Honjo (JP) presented results suggesting that activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) may be involved in regulation or catalysis of the DNA
modification step of both class switching and somatic hypermutation in
immunoglobulins (1210).
Robert L.
Hirsch (US), Donald G. McKay (US), Rosemary I. Travers (US), and Ruth K. Skraly
(US) found that hypertriglyceridemia is common during a state of infection (773).
Carol A.
Rouzer (US), Anthony Cerami (US) found that defective triacylglycerol clearance
during infection is caused by systemic suppression of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase (LPL) (1440).
Masanobu
Karakami (JP), Anthony Cerami (US), Phillip H. Pekala (US), and Malcolm Daniel Lane (US) found that macrophages secrete
cachectin, which suppresses lipoprotein
lipase activity (919; 920).
Edward Claus
Franklin (DE-US), Jerome Lowenstein (US), Bradley Bigelow (US) and Martin
Meltzer (US) were the first to report a case with gamma heavy chain disease. The patient presented with an
unexplained lymphadenopathy, fever, and a spike in the gamma fraction of serum (572).
Elliott F.
Osserman (US) and Kiyoshi Takatsuki
(JP) coined the phrase gamma heavy chain
disease (1289).
Wolfgang
Rapp (FR), Samuel B. Aronson (US), Pierre Burtin (FR), Pierre Grabar
(RU-DE-FR), Paul A. Crabbé (BE), Joseph Felix Heremans (BE), Raymond Havez
(FR), Francoise Guerrin (FR), Jean-Pierre Muh (FR), Gérard Biserte (FR), Lars
A. Hanson (SE), and Bengt G. Johansson (SE) reported that in addition to contribution
from the plasma, the gastric mucosa actively secretes four classes of
immunoglobulins—IgA, IgG, IgM, and IgD—into the gastric fluid (360; 361; 708; 732; 1387).
Jerome W.
Conn (US), Edward L. Cohen (US), and David R. Rovner (US) noted
that hypertension associated with overproduction of aldosterone, the
salt-active adrenal hormone, results from either an abnormality of the adrenal
gland itself or a circulatory deficiency of the kidney. This paper demonstrates
that these two causes of hypertension can be distinguished functionally by
measuring the level of plasma renin
activity, subnormal in adrenal cases and supernormal in renovascular cases (330).
Jerome W. Conn (US), Edwin L. Cohen (US), David R. Rovner (US),
and Reed M. Nesbit (US) showed that hypokalemia (deficiency of potassium in the
bloodstream) is likely a late manifestation of aldosterone excess, if it
occurs at all (331).
John Rouben
David (US), Salah Al-Askari (US), H. Sherwood Lawrence (US), Lewis Thomas (US),
Barry R. Bloom (US), and Boyce Bennett (US) discovered that immune lymphoid
cells stimulated by their corresponding antigen secrete a substance that
inhibits the migration of macrophages, a characteristic of delayed
hypersensitivity (150; 387; 388). They named
this substance migration inhibitory
factor (MIF). Note: This was the third cytokine discovered.
Stanley Cohen (US) coined the neologism cytokine (320).
John B. West
(US), Colin T. Dollery (US), and Arnold Naimark (US) determined the distribution
of blood flow in isolated lung and its relation to vascular and alveolar
pressures. This is the paper that originally described the "zones of the
lung." The paper and its final figure can be used to teach or review
several physiological concepts. These include the effects of gravity on
pulmonary blood flow and pulmonary vascular resistance; recruitment and distention
of pulmonary vessels; the importance of the transmural pressure on the diameter
of collapsible distensible vessels; the Starling resistor; the interplay of the
pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, and alveolar pressures; and the vascular
waterfall. In addition, the figure can be used to generate discovery learning
and discussion of several physiological or pathophysiological effects on
pulmonary vascular resistance and the distribution of pulmonary blood flow (1797).
Roger
Boucher (CA), Robert Veyrat (CA), Jacques de Champlain (CA) and Jacques Genest
(CA) described an improved procedure for angiotensin isolation and
determination and also a new method for the measurement of plasma renin
activity (167).
Leonard Skeggs, Jr. (US),Walton H.
Marsh (US), Joseph R. Kahn (US), and Norman P. Shumway (US) found that
angiotensin existed in two forms: angiotensin I and angiotensin II. Angiotensin
I was a biologically inactive decapeptide which was converted to a highly
active octapeptide by an enzyme in the plasma (1542).
Kevin K.F.
Ng (SG) and John Robert Vane (GB) discovered angiotensin converting enzyme
(ACE) in the lung of dogs (1233; 1234). Note: This work led to the development and clinical use of
angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in medicine. The discovery of
the pulmonary converting enzyme and its inhibition by Bradykinin Potentiating
Factor (BPF) led to the synthesis of
captopril (Capoten).
A. Brew
Atkinson (GB), J. Ian S. Robertson (GB), Martin J. Kendall (US), Steven R.
Smith (US), M.H. Thompson (US), Alessandra Sturani (IT), Carla Chiarini (IT),
Ezio Degli Esposti (IT), Antonio Santoro (IT), Alessandro Zuccalà, Pietro
Zucchelli (IT), and Larry Neil Gever (US) reported on Captopril, the first ACE
inhibitor used clinically in the treatment of hypertension and cardiac failure (52; 613; 933; 1615). Note: There are now ten ACE inhibitors
available in the United States for the treatment of hypertension, congestive heart failure, and diabetic
kidney disease: captopril, enalapril, fosinopril, lisinopril, benazepril,
moexipril, perindopril, quinapril, ramipril and trandolapril.
Seymour M. Glick (US-IL), Jesse Roth (US), Rosalyn Sussman Yalow (US),
and Solomon Aaron Berson (US) determined that plasma radioimmunoassayable human
growth hormone (HGH) levels fluctuate widely and rapidly in response to stimuli
that have in common a shortage of carbohydrate energy substrate, and to stress.
Glucose lowers plasma HGH in normals but not in acromegalics. The HGH response
to insulin hypoglycemia distinguishes normals from hypopituitary subjects (630).
Allan Kliman (US) and Mark E. Lesses (US) introduced
plasmapheresis as a means of collecting plasma for fractionation (956).
William Grey
Walter (GB-US) discovered a very slow change in electrical potential at and
around the vertex of the head, measured with respect to indifferent reference
points such as the ear lobes. Walter named this event the contingent negative
variation (CNV) because it was seen only after a warning signal had been given
to a human subject, who would then plan a possible movement in anticipation of
a second signal. German researchers discovered a comparable slow potential in a
similar behavioral context, calling it the bereitsschaftpotential
(readiness potential). These electrical potentials permit the observer to
predict that a subject will make a response within the next half to one second,
before the subject is aware of an intention to act. Some psychologists regard
this cerebral phenomenon as evidence that intentional actions are initiated
before awareness of such actions emerges, and that consciousness is involved in
judging the values of actions rather than in the execution of them (1757).
John Holmes
Dingle (US), George F. Badger (US), and William S. Jordan, Jr. (US) wrote, Illness in the Home: A Study of 25,000
Illnesses in a Group of Cleveland Families. Among its findings were: 1)
three uncultivatable filterable agents are responsible for atypical pneumonia (now know to be caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae), influenza-like illness (now known to be caused
by several different adenoviruses), and the common
cold (now known to be caused by a number of rhinoviruses), 2) many children
are infected by certain types of adenovirus early in life, often without
symptoms, 3) adenovirus types responsible for acute respiratory disease in military recruits are not important
causes of illness in civilians, 4) antihistamine is ineffective for the
treatment of colds, 5) and there are two kinds of non-bacterial gastroenteritis
(442).
Irving J.
Selikoff (US), Jacob Churg (US), and E. Cuyler Hammond (US) reported on the
mortality experience of a cohort of 632 asbestos insulation workers in the New
York area, during their working years of 1943-1962. They found significant
increases in deaths from lung cancer, mesothelioma, gastrointestinal cancer,
and asbestosis (1504).
Joseph T.
Doyle (US), Thomas R. Dawber (US),William B. Kannel (US), Sandra H. Kinch (US),
and Harold A. Kahn (US) reported the relationship of smoking habit to total
mortality and to the incidence of new manifestations of coronary heart
disease (CHD) from an examination in 2,282 middle-aged men under medical
surveillance for ten years in Framingham, Mass, and 1,838 middle-aged men followed
for eight years in Albany, NY. It was found that in men who report habitual
consumption of 20 or more cigarettes per day the risk of myocardial infarction
was about three times greater than in nonsmokers, former cigarette smokers, or
pipe and cigar smokers (461).
Ernst J.
Drenick (US), Marion E. Swendseid (US), William H. Blahd (US), and Stewart G.
Tuttle (US) selected eleven obese, ambulatory patients that were then starved
for periods of 12 to 117 days. Only water and vitamins were consumed. Weight
losses averaged 0.91 pounds (0.41 kg) daily. Hunger was virtually absent.
Complications which developed during starvation were severe orthostatic
hypotension in three cases; severe normocytic, normochromic anemia in one case;
and gouty arthritis in two cases. With refeeding all ill effects were promptly
reversed. Serum electrolytes, lipids, proteins, and amino acids remained
unchanged during starvation. Serum uric acid increased; blood glucose levels
fell in some cases. Considerable amounts of body protein and potassium were
lost. Prolonged starvation is not advised for obese patients with a history of
ischemic cardiovascular or cerebral disease, with history of gout, or with
hepatic diseahypole (462).
Edmund L.
Dubois (US) and Denny L. Tuffanelli (US) reported that diagnosis of systemic
lupus erythematosus (SLE) was confirmed by the presence of lupus
erythematosus cells in 75.7% of the patients, findings of skin biopsies in 6.0%
and of renal biopsies in 1.2%, and by the clinical picture alone in 17.1%.
Negroes comprised 34% of the subjects. Spontaneous remissions occurred in 35%
of the patients. Proven familial SLE occurred in 2%. Myalgia was present in
48.2%. No history of cutaneous involvement at any time was found in 28%.
Classic skin lesions of chronic discoid lupus at the onset of their illness
were present in 10.8%. Urinary abnormalities were noted in only 46.1%. Uremia
caused 34% of the 135 deaths and progressive central nervous system involvement
caused 18.4%. The prognosis has markedly improved. The mean duration is now
94.8 months for the entire series versus 38.5 months in an untreated control
group (466).
Michael
Lesch (US), William Leo Nyhan (US), and William J. Oliver (US) described two
young male patients (brothers) presenting with excessive uric acid and blood in
the urine, spasticity, choreoathetosis, mental retardation, and compulsive
aggressive behavior that led them to bite away their lips and tongue and to
bite away the ends of their fingers (1027; 1261). This
metabolic disease was later named The
Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome.
Werner Catel
(DE) and Johann-Anton Schmidt (DE) were probably the first to describe this
syndrome (278).
Jarvis Edwin
Seegmiller (US), Arthur I. Grayzel (US), Leonard Laster (US), and Lois Liddle
(US) found that an increased rate of purine biosynthesis de novo contributes to the hyperuricemia in most gouty patients (1500).
Jarvis Edwin
Seegmiller (US), R. Rodney Howell (US), and Stephen E. Malawista (US) reported
that microcrystals of uric acid interact with all of the major synovial cell
types, including neutrophils, fibroblasts, and monocytes/macrophages to produce
a variety of inflammatory mediators (1501).
Jarvis Edwin Seegmiller (US), Frederick M.
Rosenbloom (US), and William N. Kelley (US) discovered that the rare genetic
disease, Lesch–Nyhan syndrome, was due to a profound deficiency of an
enzyme known as hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT).
Deficiency that causes high levels of uric acid in the blood and leads to the
development of gouty arthritis and the formation of uric acid stones in the
urinary tract, i.e, Kelley-Seegmiller syndrome (1502).
William N.
Kelley (US), Frederick M. Rosenbloom (US), and Jarvis Edwin Seegmiller (US)
found that a partial loss of hypoxanthine
guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRTase)
activity is associated with excessive purine synthesis in some patients with
gout (926).
D.A.L.
Davies (US), Edward Arthur Boyse (GB-US), Elisabeth Stockert (US), Silvi Luell
(US), and Lloyd John Old (US) discovered TL (the thymus-leukemia antigen in
mice), which represented the first link between the major histocompatibility
complex and a disease state: mouse leukemia (176; 177; 391). Note:
This knowledge helped pave the way for the recognition of the importance of the
major histocompatibility complex in the immune response.
Edward
Arthur Boyse (GB-US, Masaaki Miyazawa (US), Tadao Aoki (US), and Lloyd John Old
(US) identified the Ly-A and Ly-B series of mouse cell surface isoantigens (175). Note: These discoveries
led directly to the wide use of cell-surface markers to distinguish and
classify normal and malignant cells and directly to the CD (cluster of differentiation)
classification. This research laid the groundwork for the identification of the
molecular markers on the surfaces of cells that allowed them to be
experimentally and diagnostically separated and distinguished, which
revolutionized immunology and medicine as it is practiced today.
Edward
Arthur Boyse (GB-US) and Harvey I. Cantor (US) determined that Ly-A (later
Lyt-1) and Ly-B (Lyt-2/3) hallmarked functionally distinct subclasses of
lymphocytes, the former denoted ‘helper’ and the latter ‘killer-suppressor’ (255; 256). Note: This turned out to
hold true in all mammalian species. In humans these subsets are now known as
CD4 and CD8.
Ernst H.
Beutner (US) and Robert E. Jordan (US) demonstrated the skin antibodies in sera
of pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid patients by
indirect immunofluorescent staining (134).
Ernst H.
Beutner (US), Walter F. Lever (US), Ernest Witebsky (US), Robert Jordon (US),
and Burton Chertock (US) found antibodies to an intercellular substance of
stratified squamous epithelium using indirect immunofluorescent (IF) staining
in the sera of eight out of 16 patients with pemphigus vulgaris. The
autoantibody nature of these antibodies could be demonstrated by testing the
patient's skin with the patient's own serum (136).
Robert E.
Jordon (US), Ernest H. Beutner (US), Ernest Witebsky (US), George Blumental
(US), William L. Hale (US), and Walter F. Lever (US) observed that indirect
immunofluorescent (IF) staining in 14 of 16 patients with active lesions of bullous
pemphigoid the sera contained antibodies specific for the basement zone
beneath stratified squamous epithelium while the sera from six patients in
remission contained no demonstrable antibodies. The sera of 18 patients with dermatitis
herpetiformis and 94 patients with various bullous and nonbullous
dermatoses yielded negative reactions to the basement zone by indirect IF
staining. In four of five skin biopsy specimens from patients with bullous
pemphigoid direct IF staining indicated that γ-globulin had been bound
in vivo to the basement zone (876).
Ernst H.
Beutner (US), Robert E. Jordan (US) and Tadeusz P. Chorzelski (PL) found in pemphigus
that these antibodies react with a surface protein on epithelial cells, and in bullous pemphigoid they fix to the
basement membrane, as seen by indirect immunofluorescence (IF) tests of sera on
normal epithelia. Direct IF tests of patients’ biopsies show that these
antibodies react in vivo with normal
skin and oral mucosa (135).
Ernest Pillsbury Walker (US), et al., completed a
two- volume Mammals of the World. It
is a great reference work in which each genus is illustrated, and its
characteristics and habits tersely stated (1747).
Thomas Earl
Starzl (US), David T. Rowlands, Jr. (US), Charlie H. Kirkpatrick (US), W.E.C.
Wilson (US), David Rifkind (US), and William R. Waddell (US) discovered that
splanchnic venous blood of dogs contains hepatotrophic factor(s), the most
important of which was later proved to be insulin;
the finding dictated methods of liver allograft revascularization (1590).
Thomas Earl
Starzl (US) established rules to prevent ABO-incompatibility in renal
transplantation surgery (1588).
Robert
Austrian (US) and Jerome Gold (US) reported on examined cases of pneumococcal
bacteremia treated at the Boston City Hospital in Massachusetts, between 1929
and 1935. Clinical manifestations; biology of infections caused by several
pneumococcal types; results of diagnostic examinations; disease overview;
treatment regimen; mortality in untreated and treated infections (56).
Robert
Austrian (US), Robert M. Douglas (US), Gerald Schiffman (US), A. Maureen
Coetzee (ZA), Hendrik J. Koornhof (ZA), Stanley Hayden-Smith (ZA), and Robert
D.W. Reid (ZA) developed a pneumococcal vaccine, during the process of which
they established that of 83 known types of pneumococci, 14 types were
responsible for 80% of the pneumococcal infections in man, and that the outer
coatings or capsules of these 14 types should be included in an effective vaccine (54; 55). Austrian
also played a major role in the successful clinical trials, which resulted in
the vaccine's licensure.
Alfred J.
Luessenhop (US) and Alfredo C. Velasquez (US) introduced endovascular surgery
for arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and aneurysms (1077).
Howard Earle Skipper
(US), Frank M. Schabel, Jr. (US), William S. Wilcox (US), L. Bruce Mellett
(US), John A. Montgomery (US), Lee J. Wilkoff (US), Harris H. Lloyd (US), and
R. Wallace Brockman (US) proposed a model for tumor growth which was formulated
and popularized by investigators at the Southern Research Institute. Called the
log-kill model, it was the original, and is still the preeminent, model of
tumor growth and therapeutic regression. They determined that a given dosage of
a chemotherapy drug killed a relatively consistent fraction of cells in a
malignant-cell population, as opposed to an absolute number. All that was
needed was for a single leukemic cell to survive, and the doubling would start
anew, and the disease would return with a vengeance. One survivor: That was all
it took.
They demonstrated
the curability of cancer in several animal tumor model systems, and first
introduced the concepts of total cell kill. Their experimental work elucidated
the logic of chemotherapy as an adjunct to surgery and has delineated the idea
of prompt eradication of all evidence of disease (1544-1548).
Roy Hertz
(US), Griff T. Ross (US), Mortimer B. Lipsett (US), Charles B. Hammond (US),
William D. Odell (US), Delbert M. Bergenstal (US), Edward B. Price (US),
Theodore F. Hilbish (US) and Min Chiu Li (US) made outstanding contributions to
the successful chemotherapeutic treatment of human gestational choriocarcinoma,
a solid tumor (705; 755; 756; 1039-1041).
Jerold F.
Lucey (US), Emerson Hibbard (US), Richard E. Behrman (US), F. Ofelia Esquivel
de Gallardo (US), William Frederick Windle (US), and Maria D. Faro (US)
discovered a consistent and precise pattern of brain damage following
asphyxiation and resuscitation of the infant at birth. They found that this
suffocation is a frequent cause of mental retardation, and cerebral palsy. They
were also the first to correlate this pathology with the clinical symptoms of
cerebral palsy, and the first to associate it with the condition known as kernicterus, in which specific centers
of brain are colored yellow (529; 1075; 1822).
Charles
Theodore Dotter (US) and Melvin P. Judkins (US) were the first to use the
catheter for intentional percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. It was used to
benefit a patient with a painful left foot. The foot had a nonhealing ulcer and
gangrenous toes (458). Charles
Theodore Dotter (US) is generally credited with developing a new medical
specialty, interventional radiology.
Andreas
Grüntzig (CH) and Heinrich Hopff (CH) developed a balloon catheter capable of
dilating peripheral arteries (678).
H. Vernon
Ingram (DE-GB-US) introduced the use of the laser for eye surgery (831).
Rolla B.
Hill (US), David T. Rowlands, Jr. (US), and David Rifkind (US) reported that
pulmonary infections were present terminally in 26 of 32 patients dying one to
two hundred and seven days after receiving an organ transplant. The responsible
organisms included many unusual agents not commonly producing clinical disease.
Candida, Aspergillus, Nocardia,
Pneumocystis and Cytomegalovirus
were identified in 28 cases, and various bacteria, notably Pseudomonas, in 17 cases. Multiple infections were common (766).
C. Andrew L.
Bassett (US), Robert J. Pawluk (US), Robert O. Becker (US), and Arthur A. Pilla
(US) reported that electromagnetic fields promote bone fracture repair (95; 96).
Charles R.
Hamilton (US) and Michael S. Gazzaniga (US) reported evidence of laterality
(hemispheric preference) in discrimination of visual tasks (color and
brightness) in non-human primates (703).
Victor H.
Denenberg (US) following his work with hemispheric laterality in rats presented
his theory that the brain possesses innate functional asymmetry (424).
Valerie Jane
van Lawick-Goodall (GB), Frans B. M. de Waal (NL-US), and Geza Teleki (US)
studied the social behavior of free-living chimpanzees. They showed that many
human practices and potentials, from politics and child rearing to violence and
even morality, have parallels in the lives of our closest animal relatives.
Between 1960 and 1997 Valerie Jane Goodall observed chimpanzees doing the
following: eating as omnivores; tool making; planning; using man-made objects;
suffering from polio and AIDS; expressing awe- (chimps spontaneously danced at
the sight of a waterfall); participating in warfare between groups;
cannibalism; establishing coalitions; transferring a female to a different
group; adolescent female, adopted
baby, after its mother died of pneumonia; males leading females away from the
community and establishing short-term monogamous relationships. This is
believed to be, so the males can ensure that the offspring are theirs;
transferring technology (chimps from one community modeled the tool making behavior of chimps in another community);
giving birth to twins; chewing the plant Aspilia, a medicinal plant believed to
relieve stomach pains or reduce internal parasites (409; 637-639; 1657).
William Donald Hamilton (GB) proposed a theoretically robust
explanation of altruism, kin selection, and inclusive fitness based on
genetics. If the success of genes shared with relatives is included in total
fitness, then even sterile individuals can have fitness if their relatives are
very successful. Helping behavior of sterile social insects could assure their
fitness in this way. Hamilton offered the simple inequality that the ratio of
cost and benefit incurred by helping must be less than the degree of
relatedness (C/B<r) (704). These ideas have since been
extended to social behaviors of many species—vertebrate as well as
invertebrate.
Dmitry
Konstantinovich Belyayev (RU), in the 1950's, conceived and initiated his
attempt to domesticate the silver fox and test whether its biochemistry was
altered as domestication occurred. He selected for low flight distance, that is,
the distance one can approach the animal before it runs away. By selecting this
behavior he mimicked what happened through natural selection in the ancestral
past of dogs. Unexpectedly during the experiment pleiotropy occurred. The gene
for tameness (i.e. low flight distance) also keys for other
"dog-like" traits such as raised tail and coming into heat every six
months rather than annually. Indeed it is now accepted that dogs look as they
do more because of this pleiotrophic behavior of coding rather than the human
intervention thousands of years ago(114-116; 641).
Lyudmila N.
Trut (RU) domesticated the silver fox, a color variation of the red fox (Vulpes
vulpes), in a controlled experiment at the Institute of Cytology and
Genetics in Novosibirsk, Russia. Starting in 1959, and selected solely on
behavioral criteria for more than 40 generations, a strain of foxes with
behavior extremely similar to domestic dogs was produced (1700; 1701).
Austin
Bradford Hill (GB) made a landmark presentation of criteria for inferring
causality from observational data dealing with environment and disease (764). Austin Bradford Hill
Paul Ralph
Ehrlich (US) and Peter Hamilton Raven (US) defined the process of coevolution
as a reciprocal interaction in which evolution of new chemical defenses in a
plant taxon is followed by evolution of new means of circumventing those
defenses in specialist butterfly herbivores. They concluded that repeated
coevolutionary interactions of this sort have been critical to the
diversification of both butterflies and flowering plants (496).
Henry de Lumley (FR) and Marie-Antoinette de Lumley (FR), in 1964,
discovered the fossil remains of a Homo
erectus/Homo sapiens transitional
form in the Verdouble Valley in Southeastern France. The age of this fossil man
(Arago man) is uncertain (c.a 130,000) (405).

“What
Goes in Must Come Out”
The great
Dr. Starling, in his Law of the Heart
Said the
output was greater, if, right at the start,
The cardiac
fibers were stretched a bit more,
So, their
force of contraction would be more than before.
Thus, the
larger the volume in diastole,
The greater
the output was likely to be.
But when the
heart reaches a much larger size,
This leads
to Heart Failure, and often, Demise.
The relevant
law is not Starling's, alas,
But the
classical law of Lecompte de Laplace.
Your patient
is dying in Decompensation,
So reduce
his Blood Volume, or call his Relation.
If the right
heart keeps pumping more blood than the left,
The lung
circuit's congested; the systemic -- bereft.
Since no one
is healthy with pulmo-congestion,
The law of
Doc. Starling's a splendid suggestion.
The balance
of outputs is made automatic
And
blood-volume partition becomes steady-static.” Alan Chadburn Burton (CA) (237).
Robert Burns
Woodward (US) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his achievements in
organic synthesis.
Francois
Jacob (FR), Jacques Lucien Monod (FR), and André Michel Lwoff (FR) shared the
Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning genetic
control of enzyme and virus synthesis.
Dr. Benjamin
Rubin (US) patented the bifurcated needle for delivery of smallpox vaccine (1443).
Cambridge
Instruments produced the first commercial scanning electron microscope. ref
Robert Burns
Woodward (US) accomplished the total synthesis of colchicine (1836).
ICI Chemical
Company introduced the herbicide paraquat,
a bipyridyl quaternary ammonium salt, useful in sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum) and fruit trees. ref
John Holmes
Dingle (US) developed a rapid method for separating and determining DDT in fat (441).
Albert M.
Kligman (US) reported that the unequivocally demonstrated spectrum of biologic
activities of dimethyl sulfoxide includes enhancement of penetration through
plant and animal membranes and preservation of living cells and tissues during
freezing. It is exceptionally nontoxic. The acute median lethal dose values for
mice are, for example, (a) 21,400 mg/kg (oral administration), and (b)
3,820 mg/ kg (intravenous administration) (955).
Seiichiro Tauri (JP), Giichi Okuno
(JP), Yuji Ikura (JP), Takehiko Tanaka (JP), Masami Suda (JP), and Mitsuo
Nishikawa (JP) reported phosphofructokinase deficiency, also known
as glycogen storage disease type VII or Tarui's disease.
They found phosphofructokinase activity was decreased in erythrocytes with
patients inheriting the disorder in an autosomal recessive pattern (1650).
Walton H. Marsh (US), Benjamin Fingerhut (US), and Henry Miller
(US) published modifications of the direct assay
of urea with diacetyl monoxime, applicable to both manual and
automated procedures (1111).
Ivan Stanley De la Lande (AU) and Michael J. Rand (AU) described
the pharmacology of an isolated, perfused nerve-blood vessel preparation which
responded rapidly and reproducibly to sympathetic nerve stimulation. As a
result, the preparation has come into widespread use for the study of
adrenergic transmission in arteries and of the modification of transmission by
drugs, particularly drugs acting via pre-synaptic receptors (403).
Jenifer J. Jowsey (US), Patrick J. Kelly
(US), B. Lawrence Riggs (US), Anthony J. Bianco, Jr. (US), Donald A. Scholz
(US), and Jacob Gershon-Cohen (US) found that quantitative
microadiography permits comparison of stained sections of bone with a
microradiograph depicting mineral distribution. Also, that bone formation,
resorption, abnormalities of mineralization, and differences in remodeling can
be quantitated in metabolic bone diseases, and the early effects of therapy in
bone disease can be evaluated (877).
Giuliana Mancini (IT), Angelo O. Carbonara (IT), and Joseph Felix Heremans
(FR) developed a method for the immunochemical quantification of antigens by
single radial immunodiffusion (1101).
Frederick
Clark (GB) and D.B. Horn (GB) compared
the diagnostic accuracy of the PBI (plasma bound iodine), the resin uptake of
131l-T3, and their mathematical product: the free thyroxine index. The latter
was shown to give the better diagnostic discrimination in patients with thyroid
disease and corrected for variations in protein binding of thyroid hormones
seen in certain conditions, e.g., pregnancy [Clark, 1965 #24052}.
Titus H.J.
Huisman (US) and Andree M. Dozy (US) presented a modified procedure for the
separation of various hemoglobin types by anion exchange chromatography.
DEAE-Sephadex, A-50 medium, was preferred over DEAE-cellulose as
chromatographic medium. Complete separations of many hemoglobin fractions were
obtained by applying a single pH gradient to the columns using TRIS-HCl buffers
of reasonably high concentrations (0.05 M). The method was applicable both for
analytical and preparative purposes (818).
Vida K.
Vambutas (US) and Efraim Racker (PL-AT-US) purified chloroplast F1 (termed CF1)
which restored light-driven ATP synthesis to EDTA-treated chloroplast fragments
but did not cleave ATP unless it was gently shaken with trypsin. This result confirmed the general expectation that
photophosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation function by a similar
mechanism (1722).
David T.
Dennis (US), Christian D. Upper (US), and Charles A. West (US) show that
several plant growth retardants, which were thought to act by inhibiting
gibberellin biosynthesis in vivo,
specifically inhibit cyclization of trans-geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate to form
kaurene in the first step unique to gibberellin biosynthesis (425).
George Alan
Robison (US), Reginald William Butcher (US), Ivar Øye (NO), Howard E. Morgan
(US) and Earl Wilbur Sutherland, Jr. (US) found that epinephrine (adrenaline)
causes a rapid raise in the level of cellular adenosine 3’,5’-phosphate (cyclic
AMP) in perfused rat heart (1416).
Reginald
William Butcher (US), Ren-Jye Ho (US), Raymond H.C. Meng (CN-CA-US), and Earl
Wilbur Sutherland, Jr. (US) showed that elevated cellular cyclic AMP stimulates
lipolysis (239).
Robert Tod
Schimke (US), E.W. Sweeney (US), and Cheston M. Berlin, Jr. (US) from their
studies of the rat liver, concluded, “rates of enzyme synthesis are mediated by
hormonal action, whereas substrates or cofactors act by altering the rate of
enzyme degradation" (1484).
Herbert
Weissbach (US), Betty G. Redfield (US), Herbert Dickerman (US), and Nathan Brot
(US) investigated the effects of cobamide derivatives on the formation of the
holoenzyme that catalyzes the terminal reaction of the pathway in which a
methyl group from a folate derivative is added to homocysteine to generate
methionine. It was known that the holoenzyme is formed in the presence of the
vitamin and that the vitamin or a derivative of B12 needed to be added to the
apoenzyme to fulfill the cobamide requirement for the enzymatic reaction. They
showed that certain alkylcobamides react with the apoenzyme forming an inactive
enzyme, which is readily converted to active holoenzyme by exposure to visible
light. From these experiments, they deduced that a methyl B12 intermediate is
likely involved in the mechanism (1794).
Robert T.
Taylor (US) and Herbert Weissbach (US) studied the role of S-adenosyl-L-
methionine, a cofactor that is necessary for the conversion of homocysteine to
methionine. From the cofactor activities of various related compounds, they
suggested that S-adenosyl-L- methionine activates the vitamin B12 enzyme by
methylation (1655).
Jerome R. Vinograd (US), Jacob
Lebowitz (US), Roger J. Radloff (US), Robert Watson (US), and Philip J. Laipis
(US) showed that covalently closed circular DNAs can assume a superhelical
configuration (1731).
Ronald A. Cooper (GB) and Hans Leo Kornberg (GB-US) discovered
that E. coli can grow on C3 compounds
such as alanine, lactate, or
pyruvate because it contains the, heretofore, unknown enzyme, phosphoenolpyruvate synthase. This
enzyme catalyzes the interaction of ATP with pyruvate yielding
phosphoenolpyruvate, phosphate-inorganic, and adenosine monophosphate;
using two of the “energy-rich” bonds of adenosine triphosphate
surmounts the energy barrier. This essentially allows the reversal of
glycolysis (342-345).
John Leslie
Fahey (US) and Eugene M. McKelvey (US) performed a quantitative determination
of serum immunoglobulins in antibody-agar plates
(526).
William D. Odell (US), John F. Wilber (US), and William E. Paul (US)
developed a radioimmunoassay capable of quantifying human thyrotropin (hTSH) in
serum. Very scarce, highly purified hTSH was used to immunize two rabbits; each
developed high titer antisera. Separation of bound from free hormone was by
differential alcohol/saline solubility —antibody bound hTSH was precipitated;
free hTSH remained in solution. Data on 101 patients with varied thyroid
function were reported (euthyroid, pregnant, hypopituitary, hyperthyroid, and
myxedematous). Several patients had repeated measurements of serum TSH during
treatment with antithyroid drugs or thyroxine (1270).
E. Frederick
Wheelock (US) found that phytohemagglutinin (PHA) from the kidney bean induces
in human leukocyte cultures an inhibitor of the cytopathic effects of Sindbis
virus. The physicochemical and biological properties of this virus-inhibitor
are like those of interferon induced by Newcastle
disease virus (1798). Note:
This is interferon-gamma, the sole member of the interferon type II class, and was
the first identified lymphocyte-derived mediator.
Philip Leder
(US), Maxine Frank Singer (US), Richard L.C. Brimacombe (DE), Robert E. Thach
(US), and Paul Mead Doty (US) announced methods for the in vitro enzymatic synthesis of oligonucleotides of known base
sequence using nucleotide phosphorylase (1009; 1666).
David J.
Weatherall (GB), John B. Clegg (GB), and Michael Naughton (GB) figured out how
to separate the α and β chains of hemoglobin (1771).
David J.
Weatherall (GB) and John B. Clegg (GB) developed a way to accurately measure
rates of α- and β-globin synthesis. Applying their scheme to blood
from thalassemic patients they generated the first clear evidence that
thalassemias spring from imbalanced globin-chain production. Note: Many groups subsequently adapted
the method to define defects that underlie different forms of thalassemias.
Sergio
Ottolenghi (IT), W. George Lanyon (US), John H. Paul (US), Robert Williamson
(US), David J. Weatherall (GB), John B. Clegg (GB), Jon Pritchard (GB), Sa-nga
Pootrakul (TH), and Wong Hock Boon (SG) showed that babies who were stillborn
because of a particularly severe form of α thalassemia did not make any
α chains (1292).
David J.
Weatherall (GB), and Paul F. Milner (GB) suggested that the messenger RNA
blueprint for the α chain may encode an amino acid at the spot where it
normally would instruct the protein-making machinery to stop. Consequently, the
cell continues adding amino acids until it fortuitously hits another
"stop" signal. This genetic glitch somehow results in diminished
amounts of α hemoglobin (312).
William G.
Wood (GB) and David J. Weatherall (GB) demonstrated that fetal blood cells
start manufacturing small amounts of β hemoglobin chains at eight weeks'
gestation (1833).
John M. Old
(GB), Ryk H. Ward (GB), Mary Petrou (GB), F. Karagözlu (GB), Bernadette Modell
(GB), David J. Weatherall (GB) published the first series of first-trimester
diagnoses of β thalassemia (1280).
Bernadette
Modell (GB), Elizabeth A. Letsky (GB), Darren M. Flynn (GB), Réka Petö (GB),
and David J. Weatherall (GB) significantly advanced "chelation"
therapy, to remove excess iron from the body. In particular, they modified a
constant-infusion procedure devised by David Nathan (Children's Hospital
Medical Center, Boston) (1183).
David J.
Weatherall (GB), Douglas R. Higgs (GB), Cody Bunch (GB), John M. Old (GB),
David M. Hunt (US), L.C. Pressley (), John B. Clegg (GB), Nicholas C.
Bethlenfalvay (US), Soren Sjolin (GB), Robert D. Koler (US), Ellen Magenis
(US), Jennifer L. Francis (US) and David Bebbington (GB) identified forms of
the hemoglobin H blood disorder associated with mental retardation (1772).
David M. Gates (US), Harry J. Keegan (US), John C. Schleter (US), and
Victor R. Weidner (US) reported the spectral reflectance, transmittance, and
absorptance of plant leaves in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared
frequencies. Mechanisms for the interaction of radiation with a leaf are
described. The amount of sunlight absorbed by a leaf through clear or overcast
sky is given and seasonal changes in leaf properties (601).
Bruce Woodson (US) and Wolfgang Karl Joklik (AT-AU-US) found that isatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone (IBT)
affects the ability of late vaccinia virus mRNA to express itself
normally. This inhibits replication of the virus (1835).
Fumio
Imamoto (JP), Nobuko Morikawa (JP), Koki Sato (JP), S. Mishima (JP), Tetsuji
Nishimura (JP), and Aizo Matsushiro (JP) isolated messenger RNA produced by the
tryptophan operon in Escherichia coli.
Because the production of this messenger is reduced by the addition of
tryptophan, they concluded that regulation in the tryptophan system operates at
the gene level (828).
Igor Bert Dawid (US) found that an egg of the frog Xenopus laevis
contains orders of magnitude higher
molecular DNA than the amount expected of a single
cell (400).
Igor Bert Dawid (US) showed that the egg DNA of Xenopus laevis
is a select group of sequences rather
than representative of the entire
frog genome. He demonstrated that the
extra egg DNA is mitochondrial DNA (401).
These discoveries led to the realization that
an individual's mitochondria are maternally inherited.
Eleftherios
Zouros (GR-CA), Kenneth R. Freeman (CA), Amy Oberhauser Ball (CA), Grant H.
Pogson (CA-GB), Carlos Saavedra (ES), David Owen Francis Skibinski (GB),
Catherine Gallagher (GB), and Christine M. Beynon (GB) presented some rare
exceptions where mitochondrial DNA is inherited through paternal transmission (1543; 1871; 1872).
Satoshi
Suzuki (JP), Kiyoshi Isono (JP), Junsaku Nagatsu (JP), T. Mizutani (JP), Y.
Kawashima (JP), and T. Mizuno (JP) were the first to isolate the antifungal
antibiotic polyoxin. It is produced
by Streptomyces cacaoi (1635).
C. Fred Fox
(US) and Eugene Patrick Kennedy (US) partially purified a surface protein (permease) of Escherichia coli that specifically recognizes beta-galactosides (569). Rickenberg,
Cohen, and Monod had predicted its existence in 1956.
Donald J.
Tipper (US), Jack Leonard Strominger (US), Edmund M. Wise, Jr. (US), and James
Theodore Park (US) found that the final step in bacterial cell wall synthesis
is the peptide cross-linking of the linear peptidoglycan strands. This reaction
occurs at the outside of the cell membrane. It is this final step, which is
inhibited by penicillins and cephalosporins (1678; 1679; 1826).
Robert
William Holley (US), Jean Apgar (US), Susan H. Merrill (US), James T. Madison
(US), John Robert Penswick (US), George A. Everett (US), Mark Marquisee (US),
and Ada Zamir (US) worked out the complete primary nucleotide sequence of an
alanine transfer RNA isolated from yeast. This was the first nucleic acid for
which the structure was known. They also proposed that it had a cloverleaf like
secondary structure (794).
Hans Bremer
(US), Michael W. Konrad (US), Kathleen Gaines (US), Gunther Siegmund Stent
(US), Umadas Maitra (US), and Jerard Hurwitz (US) determined that
polynucleotide chain growth during RNA synthesis proceeds from the 5 prime to
the 3 prime end of the molecule (186; 1093).
Beatrice
Mintz (US) created allophenic mice to
generate alternative phenotypes that would function as contrasting cell labels,
permitting cell lineages, fusions, and deployments to be revealed, and allowing
the underlying developmental organization of tissues to be analyzed.
Allophenic mice were created by taking two cleavage stage embryos of
dissimilar genotypes, removing them from the uteri of pregnant females, lysing
the acellular zone pellucida in pronase, then culturing them in contact
at 37°C for a day. During this time the cells aggregate into a normal, but
double-size blastocyst. This blastocyst is surgically transferred to the uterus
of a pseudopregnant incubator mother. Usually normal viable mosaic mice result
from this procedure (1169).
Erich Pfaff
(DE), Martin Ernst Klingenberg (DE), and Hans W. Heldt (DE) demonstrated that
for mitochondria: (1) ATP, ADP, and AMP penetrate them very rapidly, (2) a
rapid, but considerably slower exchange of exogenous and endogenous adenine
nucleotides occurs, (3) the exchange is specific for adenine nucleotides
suggesting that it is catalyzed (1338).
Solomon
Spiegelman (US), Ichiro Haruna (JP), I. Barry Holland (FR), George S. Beaudreau
(US), Donald R. Mills (US), and Norman Richard Pace, Jr. (US) devised an in vitro system for the replication of
RNA. They found that a virally encoded replicase
from phage Q beta could synthesize infectious viral RNA from precursor
nucleotides (1295; 1575). This
established the concept of viral RNA acting as a genome.
Ina E.
Mattern (NL), Maria P. van Winden (NL), and Arthur Rörsch (NL), using Escherichia coli, determined that a
number of genes (including hcr, dar1, dar2, dar3,
dar4, dar5, and dar6) must be involved in the
repair of otherwise lethal UV damage to DNA (1119).
Robert Hill
(GB) discovered that illuminated chloroplasts can affect chemical reductions (767).
Margarita
Salas (ES), Marvin A. Smith (US), Wendell M. Stanley, Jr. (US), Albert J. Wahba
(US), and Severo Ochoa (ES-US-ES) used a cell-free system consisting of Lactobacillus arabinosus supernatant
with low nuclease activity combined with Escherichia
coli ribosomes to successfully determine the direction of the genetic
message. Azotobacter polynucleotide
phosphorylase was used to prepare short polyadenylic acid messengers with
one cytidine residue at the 3'-end. These polynucleotide messengers produced
water-soluble lysine polypeptides with COOH- terminal asparagines, thus
confirming that the polynucleotide message is read from the 5'- to 3'-end.
These results also unequivocally established that AAC is the nucleotide sequence
for one of the asparagine-coding triplets (1458). Ochoa and
Grunberg-Manago had earlier isolated polynucleotide
phosphorylase. See,
Grunberg-Mango, 1955a.
Efraim
Racker (PL-AT-US), Howard Zalkin (US), Maynard E. Pullman (US), Gottfried
Schatz (AT-CH), Yasuo Kagawa (US), June M. Fessenden (US), June M.
Fessenden-Raden (US), M. Anne Dannenberg (US), Harvey S. Penefsky (US),
Lawrence L. Horstman (US), Peter C. Hinkle (US), Ronald A. Butow (US), Britton
Chance (US), Bernard Bulos (US), Alex J. Lange (US), Donna Kling (US), William
J. Arion (US), Aileen F. Knowles (US), Richard J. Guillory (US), M. Anne
Kandrach (US), and C. Ian Ragan (US) found through studies of submitochondrial
vesicles that the enzymes for electron transport are bound tightly to the
mitochondrial membrane and that the enzyme catalysis of ATP is carried out by
an enzyme—the F1/Fo complex—loosely bound to the mitochondrial membrane.
Electron flow and simultaneous ATP formation require that these two fractions
be together. This work showed that the characteristic knobs which line the
inner face of the mitochondrial inner membrane in electron micrographs are, in
fact, F1 units (F1 is Factor 1, the o in Fo is for oligomycin sensitive Factor) (44; 224; 225; 537; 538; 771; 886-889; 959; 1371-1373; 1379; 1479; 1480; 1865; 1866).
Kurt
Mühlethaler (CH), Hans Moor (CH) and Jan Wlodzimierz Szarkowski (CH) postulated
a model of the thylakoid membrane, consisting of a lipid bilayer in which
globular protein complexes were embedded. For their geometry, these particles
appeared able to bridge the lipid layer contacting proteins on the opposite
side of the membrane. The possible formation of protein bridges seemed
potentially important for a better understanding of transport processes (1204).
Daniel
Branton (US) used freeze-etching, a new method of preparing specimens for
electron microscopic examination, to split membranes in the frozen specimen to
expose inner membrane faces. Examination of these suggests that the
organization of biological membranes is an extended bilayer interrupted by
globular subunits (182).
Britton
Chance (US) did work critical in assigning carriers to a sequence in
mitochondrial electron transport (289).
Floyd C.
Rector, Jr. (US), Norman W. Carter (US), and Donald W. Seldin (US), using rats,
concluded that HCO3- reabsorption in the proximal tubule was mediated by H+
secretion, but that carbonic anhydrase located in the luminal membrane
of the cell prevented H2CO3 from accumulating in the tubular fluid. It was also
concluded that HCO3- reabsorption in the distal segment was accomplished by H+ secretion
(1391).
William S.
Bullough (GB) put forward a new concept
of the control of tissue growth by mitotic inhibitors, called chalones. Slowly this concept has become
generally accepted, and it has also proved to have a significant bearing on the
understanding of cancer (223).
Peter Banks
(GB) and Karen Blaauw Helle (NO) produced antibodies against the soluble
protein of chromaffin vesicles and used them for the first demonstration of
exocytosis (78).
J. Claude
Bennett (US), Leroy E. Hood (US), William J. Dreyer (US), and Michael Potter
(US) examined immunoglobulin structural variation through analysis of L-chain
type proteins produced by a variety of distinct plasma cell tumors of the
mouse. It appeared from these studies that these proteins all contained a
common amino acid sequence throughout a large portion of the molecule. Nevertheless,
each of the proteins contained a unique region of amino acid sequence which
allowed it to be distinguished from any other on the basis of certain variable
peptides. This suggested the possibility of a second chain, loosely linked by
non-covalent bonding or joined through disulfide bonding. It
became apparent from the peptide map data that variation must occur in some
type of “specialized area”. Although the role of the various chains of immune
globulins is not yet clear, they suggested that this remarkable type of amino
acid sequence variation reflects in part the mechanism by which specificity is
conferred (122).
Wilmar Dias
Da Silva (BR), Irwin H. Lepow (US), Charles G. Cochrane (US), and Hans J.
Müller-Eberhard (US) determined that C3a and C3b, the cleavage products of C3
during the complement cascade, are anaphylotoxins
which possess biological properties that play an important role in immune and
allergic processes by releasing histamine and increasing capillary
permeability, i.e., they promote inflammation (317; 434; 435).
Jeorg Jensen
(US), Charles G. Cochrane (US), Hans J. Müller-Eberhard (US), Hyun S. Shin
(US), Ralph Snyderman (US), Eileen Friedman (US), Alice Mellors (US), Manfred
Martin Mayer (DE-US), Peter A. Ward (US), and Larry J. Newman (US) found that
C5a, a cleavage product of C5 in the complement cascade, is also an anaphylatoxin which can cause the
release of histamine and is a potent chemotactic agent thus promoting the
inflammatory response (317; 861; 1520; 1761).
Johan A. Hellebust (CA) reported the release of organic substances
synthesized from photoassimilated 14CO2 by a large variety of cultured marine
microalgae. Similar investigations were also made with natural marine
phytoplankton populations to evaluate the importance of excretion in relation
to primary productivity (741).
Shinpei
Kasakura (CA), Louis Lowenstein (CA), Julius Gordon (CA), and Lloyd D. MacLean
(CA) found that the medium from human leukocytes cultured in vitro with homologous leukocytes or heterologous leukocytes
contains a mitogenic substance produced by the leukocytes (645; 905).
Alvin John
Clark (US) and Ann Dee Margulies (US) discovered recombinationless, or Rec-,
mutants of Escherichia coli. These
mutants are unable to produce genetic recombinants in conjugational crosses.
This defect can be traced back to mutations in several bacterial genes, to
which the designation rec has been
assigned. The first one of these genes they called recA (305).
Robert W.
Atchison (US), Bruce C. Casto (US), and William MacDowell Hammon (US)
discovered adeno-associated virus (AAV) as a contaminant in purified adenovirus
stocks (51). AAV does
not productively infect cells in culture unless there is a coinfection by an
unrelated helper virus, which in most cases is adenovirus.
M. David
Hoggan (US), Gunter F. Thomas (US), and F. Brent Johnson (US) found that AAV is
not a defective virus but preferentially establishes a latent infection and is
only induced to replicate vegetatively when the host cell is stressed (787).
Robin C.
Valentine (GB) and Helio Gelli Pereira (BR-GB-BR) reported the first analysis
of the structure of adenovirus (1721).
Ned H.
Wiebenga (US), Patricia A. Webb (US), Karl M. Johnson (US), Ronald B. MacKenzie
(US), Merle L. Kuns (US), Johng S. Rhim (US), and Bunsiti Simizu (US)
discovered Machupo virus to be the etiological agent of Bolivian hemorrhagic
fever (BHF), also known as black typhus or Ordog Fever, a hemorrhagic
fever and zoonotic infectious disease originating in Bolivia after infection by
Machupo mammarenavirus. Calomys callosus, the field mouse, is the
reservoir of the virus (1406; 1773; 1807).
Wayne H. Thompson (US), Bernard
Kalfayan (US), and Ralph O. Anslow (US) discovered La Crosse
encephalitis in 1965, after the virus was isolated from stored brain and
spinal tissue of a child who died of an unknown infection in La Crosse,
Wisconsin in 1960 (1671). Note: The mosquito Aedes
albopictus is an efficient vector of La Crosse virus.
Yoshihisa
Suyama (JP) and John R. Preer, Jr. (US) discovered that the mitochondrial DNA
of Tetrahymena is linear (most known mtDNA is circular) (1632).
Clarence C.
Bowen (US) and Thomas Edgar Jensen (US) published an account of the fine
structure of vacuoles in cyanobacteria. They proved that structures, which they
called gas vesicles, were the building blocks of gas vacuoles (170).
Suzanne
Bourgeois (FR), Melvin Cohn (US), and Leslie Eleazer Orgel (GB) showed that
some of the constituitive mutations of the regulator gene i in the Escherichia coli
lactose operon are nonsense mutants and that, consequently, the active product
of this gene is a protein (168). This
result indicated that recognition of the operator and inducer is linked to the
structure of the protein produced by the i
gene (168).
Paul F.
Kruse, Jr. (US) and Ed Miedema (US) established that for all cell types grown in vitro the limit of growth (the
saturation density of cells) is governed by the nutrient supply (974).
Renato
Baserga (US) expressed the advantages of studying tumor growth in terms of cell
cycle kinetics and opened the possibility of a new field of endeavor in
biochemistry and cell proliferation (93).
Paul H.
Black (US) and George Joseph Todaro (US) found that a virus that is a hybrid
between the simian virus 40 and adenovirus 7 could induce transformation in
both human and hamster tissue in vitro (147).
Paul H.
Black (US) and Wallace Prescott Rowe (US) performed experiments demonstrating
that there is not an association between morphological transformation and
tumorigenicity (146).
Henry Harris
(AU-GB), John F. Wilkins (GB), Charles Edmund Ford (GB), and Gutta I. Schoefl
(AU) used irradiated Sendai virus to fuse mouse Ehrlich ascites cells with
human HeLa cells. The procedure provided a general method for fusing together
cells from almost any tissue and any species (714).
Camillus L.
Witzleben (US) and Shirley G. Driscoll (US) presented evidence in humans for
the possible vertical transmission of Herpes
simplex from mother to neonate (1827).
Henry Harris
(AU-GB) studied RNA and DNA synthesis in various animal heterokaryons and
discovered that the regulation of nucleic acid synthesis in heterokaryons is
controlled by positive signals: whenever a cell that did not make a class of
nucleic acid, either RNA or DNA, is fused with one that did, synthesis is
initiated in the nucleus of the inactive partner
(712).
Earl Wilbur
Sutherland, Jr. (US), Ivar Øye (NO), Reginald William Butcher (US), and George
Alan Robison (US) deduced that cyclic AMP behaves as a second messenger in
hormone action, with the hormones themselves acting as first messengers (1628; 1629).
Michel Ramuz
(FR), Janine Doly (FR), Paul Mandel (FR), and Pierre M. Chambon (FR)
demonstrated that there exists different species of DNA dependent-RNA polymerase (287; 288; 455; 456; 1382).
Robert Gayle
Roeder (US) and William J. Rutter (US) demonstrated that eukaryotes possess
multiple types of DNA dependent-RNA
polymerase (designated poly I, II, and III by Roeder) (1423). Each type
of polymerase is devoted to the transcription of a different category of genes
(ribosomal genes, protein-encoding genes, and genes for small RNAs,
respectively).
Claude
Kedinger (FR), Marek Gniazdowski (FR), Jean-Louis Mandel, Jr. (FR), Francis
Gissinger (FR), and Pierre M. Chambon (FR) supported
previous studies indicating that the bacterial RNA polymerase differed from eukaryotic RNA polymerases and allowed
speculation that there were structural differences between polymerases A (I) and B (II) (922).
Robert Gayle
Roeder (US), Virgil E.F. Sklar (US), and Lawrence B. Schwartz (US) isolated and
analyzed the three DNA dependent-RNA
polymerases then developed assays for their activities (1421; 1422; 1550).
Merton R.
Bernfield (US) and Marshall Warren Nirenberg (US) provided evidence that one
molecule of AA-tRNA can respond to two kinds of codons, e.g. most molecules of
Phe-tRNA respond to both UUU and UUC (128).
Brian F.C.
Clark (GB-DK), Kjeld Adrian Marcker (DK), Donald A. Kellogg (US), Bhupendra
P. Doctor
(US), Judith E. Loebel (US), Marshall Warren Nirenberg (US), Dieter Söll
(DE-US), Diane S. Jones (US), Eiko Ohtsuka (US), Robert D. Faulkner (US), Rolf
Lohrmann (US), Hikoya Hayatsu (JP), Har Gobind Khorana (IN-US), Joseph D.
Cherayil (US), Arnold E. Hampel (US), Robert M. Bock (US), Susumu Nishimura
(JP), Uttam L. RajBhandary (US), Charles Thomas Caskey (US), Arthur L. Beaudet
(US), Richard E. Marshall (US), Richard L.C. Brimacombe (DE), Dolph L. Hatfield
(US), Judith G. Levin (US), Fritz M. Rottman (US), Sidney Pestka (US), Michael
Wilcox (US), and W. French Anderson (US) would show that a purified species of
tRNA responds to either 1, 2, or 3 codons (266; 308; 446; 728; 927; 1239; 1332; 1569; 1571-1573).
Francis
Harry Compton Crick (GB) proposed that although the first two bases in a codon
always pair with tRNA in a rather strict DNA-like fashion, the pairing in the
third position is less restrictive, due to wobble.
He theorized that such wobble could
explain the general nature of the degeneracy of the genetic code (372).
Michael H.
Malamy (US), Peter Starlinger (DE), Elke Jordan (DE), Heinz Saedler (DE), James
A. Shapiro (US), Philippe Brachet (FR), Harvey A. Eisen (US), and Alain Rambach
(FR) discovered insertion sequences
(ISs) in bacteria. They were defined as bacterial mobile DNA elements that
cause various kinds of genome rearrangements, such as deletions, inversions,
duplications, and replicon fusions, by their ability to transpose. These were
discovered during investigation of mutations that are highly polar in the galactose
and lactose operons of Escherichia coli
K-12 and in the early genes of bacteriophage lambda (179; 875; 1094; 1095; 1511). Insertion
sequences (ISs) have subsequently been discovered in many eukaryotes (Eucarya)
and other prokaryotes (Archaea) and viruses.
Peter
Starlinger (DE) and Heinz Saedler (DE) discovered that Escherichia coli DNA includes at least two different classes of
insertion sequences, or IS’s. One IS class, 0.8 KB in length, was designated as
IS-1, and the other IS class, 1.5 KB in length, as IS-2. A third IS class,
designated IS-3 and of the same length as IS-2, was identified later. The
elements have the capacity for insertion into the bacterial chromosome at a
diversity of genetic sites, in either a clockwise or counterclockwise
orientation. Quantitative hybridization tests show that the normal Escherichia coli chromosome contains
eight copies of IS-1 and five copies of IS-2 distributed over its length. In
Hfr strains the integrated F-plasmid DNA is flanked by one IS at each end. The
two flanking IS’s always belong to the same class and both lie in the same
orientation with respect to the chromosomal map. Non-integrated F plasmids were
found to contain several IS copies. IS’s are also present in the DNA of R
plasmids which transport blocks of drug-resistance genes between bacterial
cells. Unlike F plasmids, R plasmids are not themselves inserted into the
bacterial chromosome, but the resistance genes they carry are readily
transferred as a block to the host-cell chromosome, or to other plasmids that
may be present in the same cell. For instance, if a bacterium happens to
contain the DNA of both an R plasmid and a phage, that host cell can liberate
phage particles that carry the drug-resistance genes as insertions in their
DNA.
It appears
that genetic recombination can readily transpose a block of genes flanked by an
oppositely orientated IS pair from one chromosome to another. For that reason,
such genes with their flanking IS pair have been designated as a transposon (1587).
Andrew
Wright (US), Marcelo A. Dankert (AR), and Phillips W. Robbins (US) discovered
and elucidated the role of carrier lipids in polysaccharide synthesis (1841).
Max
Ferdinand Perutz (AT-GB), John Cowdery Kendrew (GB), and Herman C. Watson (GB)
reached the conclusion that the capacity of a protein to refold after
denaturation and retain its functionality depends principally on internal
residues, and not those exposed to the solvent. Internal residues in the
hydrophobic core of the protein must be carefully conserved (1331).
Albertus
Burgerjon (FR), and Pierre-Francis Galichet (FR) discovered that Bacillus thuringiensis endospores
contain a protein crystal (Bt toxin) which kills certain insect larvae (228). In more
recent times the Bt gene has been
transferred to plants such as tomatoes making them resistant to certain insects (784).
Miklós
Müller (HU-US), Pierre Baudhuin (FR), and Christian Rene de Duve (GB-BE-US), in
their studies of the protozoan Tetrahymena
pyriformis, identified two types of lysosomes which discharge their
enzymes, one in phagocytic vacuoles and the other in the outside medium (1205).
Brian S. Cox
(US) discovered a non-Mendelian determinant, [PSI+] that affects the level of expression of nonsense
suppressors (356).
Francois
Lacroute (FR) discovered another non-Mendelian element, [URE3] that affects the level of expression of nonsense suppressors
(986).
Reed B.
Wickner (US) proposed that these cytoplasmically inherited elements are prions (1806).
Emanuel
Margoliash (IL), Jay R. Schenck (US), Martha P. Hargie (US), S. Burokas (US),
Ward R. Richter (US), Grant H. Barlow (US), Jack E. Lilien (US), and Aron
Arthur Moscona (IL-US) demonstrated that animal cells, if placed in a
multicellular and multi-tissue-type suspension, will seek out other cells with
which they share a common species and tissue origin (1049; 1109).
Ronald
Melzack (CA) and Patrick Wall (GB), proposed the gate control theory of pain. They suggested a gating mechanism
within the spinal cord that closed in response to normal stimulation of the
fast conducting touch nerve fibers;
but opened when the slow conducting pain
fibers transmitted a high volume and intensity of sensory signals. The gate
could be closed again if these signals were countered by renewed stimulation of
the large fibers (1143).
Wolfgang Karl Joklik (AT-AU-US) and Thomas C. Merigan, Jr. (US)
found that in interferon-treated cells viral
mRNA and ribosomes do not combine to form polyribosomes (871).
Walden K.
Roberts (GB), Ara G. Hovanessian (FR), Ronald E. Brown (GB), Michael J. Clemens
(GB), and Ian M. Kerr (GB) discovered the interferon-induced
nuclease activating oligonucleotide which is compatible with a two-step
model for the inhibition of viral replication in which a pre-inhibitor is
activated by dsRNA, the activated inhibitor then interacting with the protein
synthesis system to inhibit translation (1412; 1413).
J. Thomas Grayston (US), E. Russell Alexander (US), George E. Kenny (US), Edmund R.
Clarke (US), John C. Fremont (US), William A. MacColl (US) and George E. Enny
(US) isolated Chlamydia
pneumoniae (509; 668). See, Pekka Saikku, 1985.
Geoffrey
Clough Ainsworth (GB), Frederick Kroeber Sparrow (US), and Alfred S. Sussman
(US) edited, The Fungi; An Advanced
Treatise, one of the most important publications in the history of mycology (16).
John
Langridge (AU) described three mutants of Arabidopsis requiring specific
vitamins for growth at certain temperatures. These mutants comprise naturally
occurring ecotypes in Spain and Austria. Experiments indicate that an inability
to make biotin at high temperatures may be adaptively advantageous. The consequent
cessation in growth is a balanced one, readily reversible by a lowering of
temperature, which allows the plant to escape the irreversible sterilizing
effect of heat (994).
Ola Nilsson
(SE), Luciano Barajas (US), Jacqueline Müller (US), Svatopluk Dolezel (SE),
Lars Edvinsson (SE), Christer Owman (SE), and Titti Owman (SE) established the
intimate relationship between the renin
producing cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus in the kidney and sympathetic
nerve terminals (79; 454; 1238).
Jane Swanson
(GB), Herbert F. Polesky (GB), Patricia Tippett (GB), and Ruth Sanger (GB)
discovered a 'new' human blood group antigen named Doa (1637).
Thomas B.
Tomasi, Jr. (US), Eng M. Tan (US), Alan Solomon (US), and Robert A. Prendergast
(US) identified the three antibody forms of immunoglobulin alpha (IgA) and
ruled out serum as a source of secretory IgA (1684).
Joseph Felix
Heremans (BE), M.T. Heremans (BE), and Hermann Edward Schultze (BE) first
described IgA in serum in 1959 (751).
Stewart S. Sell
(US) and Philip George Houthem Gell (GB) discovered the ability of antibodies
to rabbit immunoglobulin allotypes to stimulate small resting peripheral blood
lymphocytes to undergo 'blast' transformation, synthesize DNA, and divide. This
is the first demonstration that some lymphocytes possess a surface
immunoglobulin (sIg) receptor that can activate the cell (1505).
Raymond D.A.
Peterson (US), Max D. Cooper (US), and Robert Alan Good (US), based on clinical
observations and experimental laboratory studies, categorized immunodeficiency
diseases of man based on their underlying cellular deficiency. This paper
outlined the rationale for this
classification (1333).
Richard Jay Wurtman (US) and Julius Axelrod (US) found that the
adrenal cortical hormones influence the activity of the enzyme that converts
norepinephrine (noradrenaline) to epinephrine (adrenaline)
(phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase),
creating the situation whereby the medulla secretes the generally more active
catecholamine epinephrine (adrenaline) into the bloodstream (1850).
Edmund
F. LaGamma (US), Joshua E. Adler (US), Byron C. Yoburn (US), Steve O. Franklin
(US), Steve E. Calvano (US), Charles E. Inturrisi (US), Martina
Sietzen
(AT), Maria Schober (AT), Reiner Fischer-Colbrie (AT), Daniel Scherman (FR),
Günther Sperk (AT), and Hans Winkler (AT) found that the
adrenal cortex appears to influence the peptide and protein content of the
adrenal medulla including enkephalins and chromogranins (989; 1530; 1860).
Klaus Unsicker (DE), Brigitte Krisch (DE), Uwe Otten (DE), Hans Thoenen
(DE), Jose-Maria Trifaró (CA), and Raymond W.H. Lee (CA)
reported that adrenal cortical hormones influence the
shape of the adrenal chromaffin cells, somehow preventing them from extending
processes, as do other post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons (1696; 1715).
Winifred M.
Watkins (GB), Terry J. Painter (GB), and Walter Thomas James Morgan (GB) found
that human blood type in the ABO system is determined by the terminal sugars of
polysaccharides present on the surface of erythrocytes, e.g. type A has a
terminal galactose unit while type B has a terminal N-acetylgalactosamine (1298; 1765; 1766).
Brian S. Bull (US), Marvin A. Schneiderman (US), and George Brecher (US)
described a method for the machine counting of platelets in human blood
utilizing small samples of platelet-rich plasma. The method includes correction
factors by which the resultant count determined on platelet-rich plasma can be
transformed into a whole blood platelet count (222).
Eberhardt
Weiler (US), Benvenuto Pernis (IT), Gerolamo Chippino (IT), Andrew S. Kelus
(US), and Philip George Houthem Gell (US) observed that when a lymphoid cell
produces immunoglobulin, only one of its two possible allelic genes is
expressed. This is called ‘allelic exclusion’ (1328; 1781).
Joseph S.
Handler (US), Reginald William Butcher (US), Earl Wilbur Sutherland, Jr. (US),
Jack Orloff (US), Jared J. Grantham (US), and Maurice B. Burg (US) demonstrated
that vasopressin acts via intracellular cyclic AMP production (663; 706).
Donald
Kennedy (US) and Kimihisa Takeda (US), in their work on crustacean motor
systems, established a general principle of motor control: there is a division
of labor among available motor neurons and muscle fibers. The investigators
recognized two types of muscle in the crayfish abdomen, which they categorized
as slowly contracting or 'tonic' (capable of sustained, fatigue-resistant,
graded contractions), and rapidly contracting or 'phasic' (producing very
rapid, twitch-like, non-sustained contractions). The two types of muscle are
anatomically separated and supplied by two sets of motor neurons with very
different physiological properties. The motor neurons of the tonic musculature
exhibit a lot of spontaneous impulse activity and are responsible for postural
adjustments and everyday locomotion. In contrast, the motor neurons of the
phasic musculature are silent most of the time, but when recruited for vigorous
escape activity they fire a few impulses at a time in intermittent bursts,
producing relatively brief episodes of intense movement. Many variations on
this theme have since been found throughout the animal kingdom, but in
selecting the musculature of the crayfish abdomen, Kennedy and Takeda presented
an extremely clear-cut case of complete separation of phasic and tonic motor
systems, with anatomically distinct sets of muscles innervated by separate
groups of specialized motor axons (now often referred to as 'phasic' and
'tonic' motor axons) (934; 935).
Robert E.
Burke (US) found that the principle of differential recruitment of 'phasic' and
'tonic' motor systems for specific acts applies in mammals as well. For
example, in the medial gastrocnemius muscle of the cat, only about 25% of the
motor unit pool innervating slow-twitch muscle fibers is used for posture and
walking; about 60% of the motor unit pool innervating 'fast fatigable' muscle
fibers is used only for demanding efforts such as jumping (233).
Michel
Bouteille (FR), C. Fontaine (FR), C.L. Vedredd (FR), Jacques Delarue (FR), Giuseppe
Barbanti-Brodano (IT), Shinsaku Oyanagi (JP), Michael Katz (US), Hilary
Koprowski (US), John H. Connolly (IE), Ingrid V. Allen (IE), Lewis J. Hurwitz
(IE), J. Harold D. Millar (IE), Volker ter Meulen (DE), and Dieter Müller (DE)
determined that subacute sclerosing
panencephalitis (SSPE) is a slow infection of measles virus with
reactivation years after the initial attack exhibiting production of incomplete
viral particles in the central nervous system cells (80; 169; 334; 917; 1659).
William E.
Hathaway (US), Loretta P. Belhasen (US) and Helen S. Hathaway (US) discovered
the human blood coagulation factor called Fletcher
factor (729). This
factor was later to be identified as plasma prekallikrein.
Eric Richard
Kandel (US) and Ladislav Tauc (FR) introduced a 'simplified' brain (the Aplysia
nervous system) to study the cellular and molecular basis of organized neuronal
interactions. They presented neurophysiological evidence that strength of many
synapses between pairs of neurons change when the neurons on both sides of the
synapse are repeatedly electrically active at the same time (894; 895).
Pramod K.
Dash (US), Binyamin Hochner (US), and Eric Richard Kandel (US) showed that
extracts of the Aplysia central
nervous system and extracts of sensory neurons contain a set of proteins,
including one with properties like mammalian cAMP-responsive-element-binding
proteins, that specifically bind the mammalian cAMP-responsive-element (CRE)
sequence. Microinjection of the CRE sequence into the nucleus of a sensory
neuron selectively blocks the serotonin-induced long-term increase in synaptic
strength, without affecting short-term facilitation. Taken together, these
observations suggest that one or more CRE-like transcriptional activators are
required for long-term facilitation (385).
Olav Egeberg
(NO) discovered the first known hereditary hypercoagulable disorder. He found a
Norwegian family with a strong history of thrombosis. The affected individuals
had plasma antithrombin concentrations that were 40-50% of normal (495).
C. William
Hall (US), William W. Akers (US), William O'Bannon (US), Domingo Liotta (AR),
and Michael Ellis DeBakey (US) implanted an intraventricular artificial heart (702).
Adrian
Kantrowitz (US), Tetsuzo Akutsu (US), Paul-Andre Chaptal (FR), Joseph C.
Krakauer (US), Arthur R. Kantrowitz (US), and Robert T. Jones (US) implanted
a mechanical auxiliary ventricle in a patient (898).
Willy Gepts
(BE) suggested that insulin-dependent
diabetes mellitus might be an autoimmune disease because of the presence of
mononuclear cell infiltration in the pancreas and the presence of islet cell
antibodies in affected individuals (607).
Richard K.
Sibley (US), David E.R. Sutherland (US), Frederick C. Goetz (US), and Alfred F.
Michael (US) proved that Gepts’ suggestion was correct (1527).
John D.
Utley (SE) and Arvid Carlsson (SE) discovered that dopamine
(prolactin-inhibiting hormone) is a neurotransmitter in the brain (1719).
Kresimir
Krnjevic (CA), Susan Schwartz (US) and Victor P. Whittaker (DE) discovered that
the neural chemicals glutamate and gamma-amniobutyric acid (GABA) play more
important roles in determining how information travels through the brain than
was previously suspected. Glutamate plays a key excitatory function, while GABA
has an opposite action as the main inhibitory neurotransmitter (970-972).
Hanns Möhler
(CH) and Toshikazu Okada (JP) showed that the tranquilizer, benzodiazeprine,
acted on the neurotransmitter, GABA (1185; 1186).
Norbert
Hilschmann (DE) and Lyman Creighton Craig (US), using Bence Jones proteins as
their material, discovered that the first 110-120 amino acid residues in light
chains of antibody molecules represent a variable region (770).
Stanley A.
Plotkin (US), David Cornfeld (US), and Theodore H. Ingalls (US) developed the
rubella vaccine that is the only one in use in the United States and throughout
most of the world (1347).
Eugene B.
Buynak (US), Maurice Ralph Hilleman (US), Robert E. Weibel (US), and Joseph
Stokes, Jr. (US) described the development and clinical testing of their
attenuated rubella virus vaccine prepared in duck embryo cell culture (245).
André-Bernard Tonnel (FR), D. Dubois (FR), C. Blin (FR), Pierre
Wattré (FR), and Jean Samaille (FR) developed the hemagglutination
inhibition reaction and its application to biological diagnosis of rubella (1687).
Alexander M.
McPhedran (US), Raymond B. Wuerker (US), Elwood Henneman (US), George Somjen
(US), David O. Carpenter (US), and Camille B. Olson (US) provided a detailed
account of motor unit properties, motor neuron recruitment properties, and how
the relationships between these two sets of properties could be summarized in
terms of a unifying principle that they called the “size principle” (747-749; 1136; 1846).
Bayard H.
Brattstrom (US) confirmed that reptiles
are not “cold- blooded” and that they can maintain their body emperature
at high levels by behavior. Yet it also showed that temperate, tropical,
alpine, desert, shade-dwelling, and burrowing reptiles have a
diversity of thermal requirements and abilities to regulate body
temperature. It introduced the notion of physiological control of
temperature regulation in some species (183).
Horace B.
Barlow (GB) and William R. Levick (AU) discovered motion selectivity in the
rabbit retina (85).
Malcolm
Fowler (AU) and Rod F. Carter (AU) first described the potential for
free-living amebae to cause disease when they described a case of acute pyogenic meningitis probably due
to Acanthamoeba sp. (568).
Cecil G.
Butt (US) reported several cases in Florida, coining the term primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM)
(243).
This is very dangerous infection. Naegleria
fowleri usually infects people when contaminated water enters the body
through the nose. Once the ameba enters the nose, it travels to the brain where
it causes PAM, with an in-hospital case fatality rate of ~97% (3% patient
survival rate).
The etiological
agent was named Naegleria fowleri to
honor Mathieu Naegler (FR) and Malcolm Fowler (AU) above.
Thomas A. Stamey (US), Duncan E. Govan (US), and John M. Palmer (US)
presented methodology for accurately localizing the specific site of urinary
tract infections, especially the separation of bladder from renal infection and
the identification of the urethra or prostate as the tissue site of bacterial
persistence in the male. Additional data demonstrate that the cure of kidney
infections is dependent upon the urinary concentrations of antimicrobial agents
and not the serum levels (1584).
Phil Gold
(CA) and Samuel O. Freedman (CA) discovered a carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)
produced during growth of cancer cells of the digestive system (633). This
antigen is produced in tumors and fetal embryonic gut, pancreas and liver
cells, but not by normal adult cells. A blood test was developed that can
indicate the presence, spread or reoccurrence of cancer (2). The CEA
Test has proved useful in assessing the extent of a cancer, its growth rate and
response to treatment, but it is not reliable in testing for the presence of
tumors, since early tumors do not produce enough CEA to be detected. The discovery
of CEA opened the new field of onco-fetal antigens.
Paul Ichiro
Terasaki (US), Thomas L. Marchioro (US), and Thomas Earl Starzl (US) described
the hyperacute kidney rejection associated with antigraft lymphocytotoxic
antibodies. They proposed that this could be prevented with cytotoxic
crossmatching (1660).
Flemming
Kissmeyer-Nielsen (DK), Steen Olsen (DK), Villy Posborg Petersen (DK), and Ole
Fjeldborg (DK) confirmed this proposal then extended it with the development of
the leukoagglutinin test (Kissmeyer-Nielsen Test) (952).
Charles E.
Reed (US), Abe Sosman (US), and Robert A. Barbee (US) described pigeon-breeders'
lung. A newly observed interstitial pulmonary disease (1392).
Roscoe O.
Brady (US), Julian N. Kanfer (US), and David Shapiro (US) discovered the
precise metabolic defect—a missing enzyme—which causes lipids to build up and
destroy body tissues in such disorders as Gaucher's
disease, Niemann-Pick disease, Fabry's disease, and Tay-Sachs disease (180; 181).
Peter G. Pentchev (US), Marcella E. Comly (US), Howard S. Kruth
(US), Marie T. Vanier (US), David A. Wenger (US), Shutish Patel (US) and Roscoe
O. Brady (US) demonstrated that Niemann-Pick
disease type C is a disease of cholesterol metabolism (1324).
Judith G.
Pool (US) and Angela E. Shannon (US) discovered that slowly thawed frozen
plasma yields deposits high in Factor VIII. The deposits, called cryoprecipitates, are further refined
for treatment of hemophilia (1354).
Forrest M.
Bird (US) developed the first highly reliable, low-cost, mass-produced medical
respirator in the world, the Bird Mark 7 (143). In 1970,
he introduced the first infant ventilators, the BABYbird, which reduced infant
mortality by 60% for infants with Infant Respiratory Distress Syndromes (IRDS) (142).
Harry
Angelman (GB) reported cases of a chromosome
15 disorder comprising microcephaly with mental and motor retardation,
epilepsy, ataxic gait or complete inability to walk, muscle hypotonia, EEG
abnormalities, and peculiar faces marked by a protruding jaw and tongue,
occipital depression, and blue eyes (39). It is
often called Angelman’s syndrome.
David H. Carr (CA)
gave us some idea of the amount of fetal damage that was caused by chromosomal
changes in spontaneously aborted fetuses. He showed that in 40-50% of all
spontaneous abortions there was a major chromosomal abnormality occurring in
the fetus (265).
Giacomo Meschia (US), Donald Henry Barron (US), Julian R. Cotter
(US), and Caoimhghin S. Breathnach (GB) presented a method for the introduction
of plastic catheters into the umbilical vessels of fetal goats and lambs
whereby samples of blood may be obtained over a period of days and weeks in
conditions in which the mother is free from obvious stress. The results of the
analyses of samples so obtained, indicate that (1) the oxygen capacity of the
fetal blood does not increase after 100 days and (2) that the oxygen saturation
does not fall systematically in the last month of gestation. Data on the day to
day variations in the blood levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide and pH are
reported (1150).
Stephen E. Epstein (US), Brian F. Robinson (GB), Richard L. Kahler
(US), and Eugene Braunwald (US) determined the sympathetic contribution to the
cardiac response to exercise in man using propranolol, a beta-adrenergic
blocking agent. Blocking sympathetic stimulation reduced heart rate, cardiac
output, and mean arterial pressure during submaximal and maximal exercise, and
diminished both maximum VO2 and capacity for strenuous exertion (510).
Gunnar B. Stickler (DE-US), Paul G. Belau (US), Francis J. Farrell, Jr.
(US), James D. Jones (US), David G. Pugh (US), Arthur G. Steinberg (US), and
Louis E. Ward (US) described what was later called Stickler syndrome. It is a group of genetic disorders affecting connective tissue,
specifically collagen (1607). The syndrome is thought to
arise from a mutation of several collagen genes during fetal development.
Gaston
Cordier (FR), Henri Garnier (FR), Jean-Pierre Clot (FR), M. Bertrand (FR), P.
Camplez (FR), J.P. Gorin (FR), Philippe H. Clot (FR), Jean-Paul Rassinier (FR),
M. Nizza (FR), and Richard N. Lévy (FR) observed that liver allografts in untreated
pigs frequently were not rejected (348; 599).
Thomas Earl
Starzl (US), Thomas L. Marchioro (US), Kendrick Arthur Porter (US), Paul D.
Taylor (US), Tanous D. Faris (US), Thomas J. Herrmann (US), Charles J. Hlad,
Jr. (US), and William R. Waddell (US) obtained the first greater than one year
survival after liver replacement in any species (here mongrel dogs) with
recognition of the liver’s unusual ability to induce tolerance under a 3- to
4-month course of azathioprine, or in this canine model after only a few
perioperative injections of anti-lymphocyte serum or anti-lymphocyte globulin (1589).
Evan M.
Hersh (US) and Joost J. Oppenheim (US) investigated whether the impaired in
vivo immunocompetence in Hodgkin's
disease was related to an intrinsic lymphocyte defect expressed by impaired
in vitro blastogenic response. They
found impaired blastogenesis and mitoses in the lymphocytes of Hodgkin patients
compared to controls. These responses correlated with skin test anergy,
the stage of disease, and the prognosis. This paper is one of the first to relate
impaired lymphocyte competence to stage of disease and prognosis in malignancy (754).
Evan M. Hersh (US), Gerald P. Bodey (US), Boyd A. Nies (US), and Emil Jay
Freireich (US)
studied the causes of death in acute leukemia: a ten-year study of 414 patients
from 1954-1963. This was one of the first clinical studies specifically to
evaluate the causes of death in malignant disease and served as a prototype for
subsequent similar studies. It proved that supportive care can have a major
effect on the course of malignant disease. Most important was the observation
that leukemia patients often do not die of the direct effects of the disease.
These implications have influenced developments in supportive care, antibiotic
therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Today most patients with leukemia
enter complete remission and 50% of children and 20% of adults are apparently
cured (752).
Lee W.
Wattenberg (US) reported that a variety of chemicals are shown to prevent
cancer induced by chemicals by activating the detoxification system,
competitively inhibiting the carcinogen, preventing initiation of
carcinogenesis and other unknown mechanisms (1768; 1769). Note: The term chemoprevention was later
coined as a new area of focus in cancer research.
Vincent T.
DeVita, Jr. (US), Mary Anne Hahn (US), and Vincent T. Olivorio (US) reported
the first chemotherapy-induced cure of adults with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma.
They found that a combination of four drugs – mechlorethamine, vincristine
(Oncovin), procarbazine and prednisone, a regimen named MOPP – induced
long-term remissions in more than 50 percent of adults with the disease in a
clinical trial (431).
Henry Jay
Heimlich (US) invented the flutter valve (Heimlich valve) which greatly
facilitated the surgical removal of fluid and air from a collapsed lung (734; 735).
William
Beetham (US), Lloyd M. Aiello (US), Marios C. Balodimos (US), and Lajos Koncz
(US), beginning in 1965, pioneered pan-retinal coagulation, a treatment that
uses lasers to halt the sight-stealing proliferation of blood vessels in people
with diabetes (113).
Michael
Ellis DeBakey (US), E. Stanley Crawford (US), H. Edward Garrett (US), Arthur C.
Beall, Jr. (US), Jimmy F. Howell (US), Robert D. Bloodwell (US), Grady L.
Hallman (US), Denton A. Cooley (US), John E. Liddicoat (US), Szabolcs M.
Bekassy (US), Pedro A. Rubio (MX-US), and George P. Noon (US) pioneered the
successful surgical treatment of aneurysms of various parts of the human aorta (149; 413; 414; 600; 1044).
Jose Maria
Gil-Vernet (ES) introduced extended pyelolithotomy, a technique
applicable for removal of most staghorn, and large pelvic and caliceal calculi (620).
Jean Dennis
Aicardi (FR), Jacques Lefebvre (FR), A. Lerique-Koechin (FR), Jean-Jacques
Chevrie (FR), and Francoise Rousselie (FR) described the combination of
infantile spasms, agenesis of the corpus callosum, chorioretinal lacunae and
psychomotor deterioration later called Aicardi
syndrome (13; 14).
Louis J.
Poirier (CA) and Theodor L. Sourkes (CA) presented evidence that a
well-identified group of neurons (originating in the substantia nigra) exert through their efferent fibers a direct role
in the elaboration of a specific substance (dopamine) in a distant structure
(the striatum) contributes to a
better understanding of brain circuitry. Moreover, this intracerebral
'dopaminergic' pathway is directly involved in Parkinson's and related diseases
(1349).
Charles
Miller Fisher (CA-US) and Hiram B. Curry (US) contributed greatly to the
understanding of stroke, more specifically carotid artery disease and
lacunar infarcts and their syndromes. With regard to the lacunar syndromes he
described the concept, the "pure motor stroke", the
"pure sensory stroke", and the mechanism underlying the
different stroke syndromes (544-548; 550; 553).
Fred H.
Hochberg (US), Charles Miller Fisher (CA-US), and Glenn H. Roberson (US)
contributed to the understanding of subarachnoid hemorrhage due to cerebral
aneurysms (776).
Fred H.
Hochberg (US), Charles S. Bean (US), Charles Miller Fisher (CA-US), and Robert
G. Ojemann (US) made a number of contributions to the understanding of cervical
artery dissection (carotid artery dissection and vertebral artery dissection) (549; 554; 775).
Fisher
proved, by a series of pathological studies, the relationship between stroke
and the formation of blood clots in the heart in patients with atrial
fibrillation. He also showed the relationship between stroke and carotid artery
stenosis, which made preventive surgery possible and greatly reduced the
incidence of subsequent strokes (551). He contributed
greatly towards the current use of anticoagulants for stroke prevention in atrial
fibrillation.
Charles
Miller Fisher (CA-US) took careful histories from stroke patients within the
course of one week to reveal the passing mention of a transient monocular
blindness contralateral to the hemiplegic side. He avoided the possible pitfall
of misinterpreting this symptom as a hemianopic phenomenon, and it was this
careful detail that contributed to the discovery of the transient ischemic
attack (TIA) as a warning sign of stroke. He realized that ischaemic stroke
often followed transient neurological symptoms in the same arterial territory (552).
Vincent Paul
Dole (US), Marie E. Nyswander (US), and Mary Jeanne Kreek (US) developed
methadone treatment for heroin addiction (450-453).
Dame Cicely
Mary Strode Saunders (GB) founded the modern hospice movement (St.
Christopher’s hospice) during the early 1960s (1475).
Lyndon B.
Johnson, President of the United States, signed Medicare into law. Medicare is
a medical and hospital insurance program for the aged in the United States of
America.
John Langdon
Brooks (US) and Stanley I. Dodson (US) hypothesized
that size-dependent predation by fish determines the size structure of
freshwater zooplankton. They observed that lakes seldom contained abundant
large zooplankton (>0.5 mm) and small zooplankton (<0.5 mm) together.
Large zooplankton did not coexist with plankton feeding fish (203).
Walter J. Bock (US) and Gerd von
Wahlert (DE) distinguished the concepts of structure, function and biological
role; extremely useful for those who think in terms of 'the target of
selection’, i.e., what is being selected for (154).
Robert H.
Whittaker (US) created a rank abundance
curve or "Whittaker plot." This is a chart used by ecologists
to display relative species abundance, a component of biodiversity. It can also
be used to visualize species richness and species evenness. It overcomes the
shortcomings of biodiversity indices that cannot display the relative role
different variables played in their calculation (1800).
Esmond Ray
Long (US) reported that from investigations on the mummies of ancient Egypt we
know that bone tumors and tuberculosis of the spine occurred, that
osteomyelitis and arthritis deformans
were common, that, arteriosclerosis of the senile, atheromatous type with
deposit of calcium salts, was at least as frequent as it is with us, and
possibly more so, and that pneumonias, anthracosis, pleurisies, renal atrophies
and abscesses, splenomegalies and gallstones troubled or cut off the Pharaohs
and priests of Ammon, with the same kind of gross and microscopic change to be
seen in the fresher human clay of the twentieth century (1064).
J. William
Schopf (US) Elso Sterrenberg Barghoorn (US), Morton D. Maser (US), and Robert
O. Gordon (US) found microscopic formations that look very much like traces of
cyanobacteria in 2-billion-year-old rock called Gunflint chert. The find was
near Lake Superior in Canada (1493). Cherts are
rocks composed of minute interlocking grains of silica, occurring as the
mineral quartz (SiO2).
Elso
Sterrenberg Barghoorn (US) and J. William Schopf (US) discovered fossils of
microorganisms in stromatolitic cherts of the Neoproterozoic Bitter Springs
Formation of the Amadeus Basin of Central Australia (82; 1492).
Other
Precambriam fossil sites include: The Fig Tree Group, Africa; the Bulawayan
Formation, Africa; the Gunflint Iron Formation, Minnesota/Canada; the Belcher
Group, Hudson Bay; Bitter Springs, Australia; and the Ediacaran Sites,
Australia.
Kenneth A.
Kermack (GB), Patricia M. Lees (GB), and Frances Mussett (GB) describe the
Early Cretaceous fossil Aegialodon
dawsoni as the oldest known fossil to be a common ancestor to the
marsupials and placentals (938).
Miklós
Kretzoi (HU) and Laslo Vertes (HU), in 1964, found a portion of the fossil
remains of a specimen of Homo erectus;
Homo sapiens (archaic) near the
village of Vértesszöllös west of Budapest, Hungary (969). The
remains are dated at c.a 185,000 BP
Elwyn LaVerne Simons (US) announced the discovery of the
30,000,000-year-old skull of an ape, which he names Aegyptopithecus. Aegyptopithecus is at this time the earliest known
primate that is a part of the hominid line, the line that eventually led to Homo sapiens (1535).
1966
Reflecting
on his study of salamanders blinded to study their homing instinct, Victor
Chandler Twitty wrote, “Of the countless displaced newts that I have handled, I
think none has made such an impact on me as the first one of these blinded
animals to be recaptured. As I examined its empty eye sockets and emaciated
body (many blinded newts do not feed at all!), and then looked downstream
toward the heavy forest and rugged terrain it had transversed in coming home,
my respect for its accomplishment came as near awe and reverence as can be
inspired by lowly organisms or possibly even by their highly evolved
descendants.” Victor Chandler Twitty (1705).
“Only the
genius or unsung hero can make an intellectual judgment when his feelings,
emotions and beliefs are engaged.” William Bennett Bean (103).
Peyton Rous
(US) for his discovery of tumor inducing viruses and Charles Brenton Huggins
(US) for his discoveries concerning hormonal treatment of prostatic cancer
shared the Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine.
Craig
Merrihue (US) and Grenville Turner (US) presented the first 40Ar/39Ar dating
results (1146).
John G.
Mitchell (GB), Kingsley C. Dunham (GB), Frank J. Fitch (GB), Peter R. Ineson
(GB), and John A. Miller (GB) first applied the 40Ar/39Ar dating method to
terrestrial rocks where they compared total fusion 40Ar/39Ar ages with
conventional K-Ar ages (473; 1175). The
argon-argon technique had much to do with the proof of the theory of
continental drift and sea floor spreading. It also helped scientists interpret
the origin, history, age, and composition of the moon from lunar soil samples.
Csaba G.
Horvàth (US) and Sandy R. Lipsky (US) developed and named high-pressure liquid
chromatography (HPLC) (798). It did not
catch on until the early 1970s, when the production of silanized silica yielded
a packing material that allowed the use of smaller volume and longer columns
with the pressurized solvents. Combined with the introduction of gradient
elution in the 1950s by Arne Vilhelm Kaurin Tiselius and co-workers, the new
packing materials proved the basis for HPLC. Note: Archer John Porter
Martin (GB) predicted HPLC in 1941, in his famous paper with Richard Laurence
Millington Synge (GB) (1113).
Norman
Gulack Anderson (US) invented the rate-zonal ultracentrifugation process (33).
David T.
Denhardt (CA) developed a membrane-filter technique for the detection of
complementary DNA (423).
Carl-Bertil
Hugo Laurell (SE) described a method for rapid quantitative analysis of
proteins with a charge differing from that of the bulk of the immunoglobulins.
The method utilizes the difference between the rate of electrophoretic
migration of proteins and of their antibody complexes in agarose gel (999; 1000).
Thomas J.
Vecchio (US) observed that when a new test for a disease is being evaluated it
is customary to perform the test in two selected groups of subjects: those with
an indisputable diagnosis of the disease by other criteria; and those from the
normal population who have no evidence of the disease and in whom all the
factors known to result in a higher than normal risk of the disease can be
excluded. The test results may be expressed dichotomously as
"positive" or "negative," or by some numerical units along
a scale, usually with the bulk of values on either side of an arbitrary
dividing line (1729).
W. David
Loomis (US) and Julian Battaile (US) found that inability to isolate active
enzymes from certain plants was found to be due to plant phenolic compounds.
These bind to proteins more strongly than biochemists had realized. Polymeric
adsorbents, adapted from brewing chemistry, released the plant enzymes from
these complexes (1065).
Mary Ellen
Jones (US) and Sally E. Hager (US) isolated the glutamine-dependent carbamyl-phosphate synthetase from the rat
liver. They were the first to demonstrate the existence of carbamyl-phosphate synthetase II (697; 873).
Robert Burns
Woodward (US), Karl Heusler (CH), Jacques Gosteli (CH), Peter Naegeli (CH),
Wolfgang Oppolzer (AT-CH), Robert Ramage (GB), Subramania Ranganathan (IN), and
Helmut Vorbruggen (DE) carried out the total synthesis of cephalosporin C (1840).
Søren Jensen
(SE) discovered polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the environment (863).
Robert W.
Risebrough (US), P. Reiche (US), David B. Peakall (US), Steven G. Herman (US),
and Monte N. Kirven (US) showed that polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are
widely dispersed in the global ecosystem and are powerful inducers of hepatic
enzymes which degrade oestradiol. Together with other chlorinated biocides,
such as DDT, they could account for a large part of the aberration in calcium
metabolism which has been observed in many species of birds since the Second
World War (1410).
Morris
Lieberman (US), Alice Kunishi (US), L.W. Mapson (GB), and D.A. Wardale (GB)
demonstrated that methionine is a precursor of ethylene and they were the first
to show that ethylene carbons are derived from carbons 3 and 4 of methionine (1046).
Douglas O.
Adams (US) and Shang Fa Yang (US) identified 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic
acid as an intermediate that proved to be the missing link between methionine
and ethylene, establishing the following biosynthesis sequence for ethylene:
methionine / S-adenosylmethionine / 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid /
ethylene (5).
Toshio Ando
(JP) and Koichi Suzuki (JP) determined the amino acid sequence of clupeine, a
protamine of salmon (36; 37; 1633; 1634). Protamines
are very small, highly basic proteins with molecular weights ranging from about
4000 to 6000, which usually replace some or all somatic histone during spermatogenesis.
They are highly variable and show few similarities in size or amino acid
sequence between plants and animals or among major animal groups.
Alvin Rees
Midgley, Jr. (US) developed a radioimmunoassay for human luteinizing hormone
(LH) (1157).
Gordon D.
Niswender (US), Alvin Rees Midgley, Jr. (US), Scott E. Monroe (US), and
Leo E. Reichert, Jr. (US) developed a radioimmunoassay procedure for
quantification of luteinizing hormone (LH) in the blood of rats utilizing an
immunological cross-reaction between rat LH and a unique antiserum produced in
a rabbit against ovine LH. The assay was characterized carefully to demonstrate
that other pituitary hormones or components of serum did not interfere with the
measurement of LH. The extreme sensitivity of the assay (5 pg NIH-LH-S1)
allowed quantification of the hormone in as little as 0.02 to 0.2 ml serum (1243).
Gertrude
Belle Elion (US), Aylene Kovensky (US), George Herbert Hitchings (US),
Ts’ai-fan Yu (US), and Alexander B. Gutman (US) played a major role in the
development of allopurinol (Zyloprim) for the treatment of gout (504; 505).
Robert L.
Letsinger (US) and Viswanath Mahadevan (IN) were among the first to accomplish
the in vitro synthesis of
oligodeoxyribonucleotides (1028).
Ira Harry Pastan (US), Jesse Roth (US), Vincenzo Macchia (IT), Robert
Joseph Lefkowitz (US), and William Pricer (US) found that thyroid stimulating
hormone (TSH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) specifically
bind to receptors on the surface of cells (1016; 1017; 1311).
Michael B.
Kemp (GB) and John Rodney Quayle (GB) confirmed the presence in crude cell
extracts of Pseudomonas metnanica
(now Methanomonas methanica) of a
novel formaldehyde-condensing enzyme
indicating the presence of a pentose phosphate cycle for formaldehyde
assimilation, analogous to the RuBP pathway for carbon dioxide assimilation.
This was confirmed by a thorough examination of the labelling patterns and by
characterizing the novel enzyme responsible for condensing formaldehyde with
ribulose monophosphate to give a sugar phosphate (932).
Mchael B.
Kemp (GB) identified this sugar phosphate as a novel hexulose phosphate,
d-arabino-3-hexulose phosphate (931).
John Rodney
Quayle (GB) eventually completed the pathway, now known as the ribulose
monophosphate pathway (RuMP pathway) by purifying and characterizing a second
novel enzyme, hexulose phosphate
isomerase, and by demonstrating the presence of essential cleavage and
rearrangement enzymes (1370).
Benno Hess (DE), Rainer Haeckel
(DE), Karl Brand (US), Christopher B. Taylor (GB), and E. Bailey (GB) reported
that in the glycolytic pathway pyruvate
kinase is stimulated by fructose-1,6-diphosphate, a phenomenon which can be
thought of as positive feed-forward (758; 1652).
John L. Hess
(US) and Nathan Edward Tolbert (US) detected glycolate, glycine, serine, and
glycerate formation during photosynthesis by tobacco leaves (759).
John L. Hess (US), Nathan Edward Tolbert (US), William J. Bruin
(US), and Edward B. Nelson (US) established that the glycolate pathway of
metabolism is present in unicellular green algae
(213; 760).
Arun Goyal (IN-US) and Nathan Edward Tolbert (US) associated glycolate
oxidation with photosynthetic electron transport in plant and algal
chloroplasts (661).
Marlene L.
Forrester (CA), Gleb Krotkov (CA), and Charles D. Nelson (CA) helped establish
the interrelationship between O2, CO2, photosynthesis, and photorespiration in
C3 plants (567).
Rodney
Robert Porter (GB), Ronald C. Weir (GB), Gerald Maurice Edelman (US) and Joseph
A. Gally (US) described the structure and nature of antibodies (481; 483; 1356; 1357).
Hugh R. Wallace
(GB) and Max Luciano Birnstiel (CH) were the first to purify a eukaryotic
chromosomal gene. It was amphibian ribosomal DNA
(1749).
Walter
Gilbert (US) and Benno Müller-Hill (DE) isolated and purified the lactose
repressor molecule. Their in vitro
studies showed that the repressor binds to DNA that contains the lactose
operon. Gilbert went on to determine the base sequence of the DNA region bound
by the repressor. The repressor was shown to bind to the operator, preventing
initiation of transcription by the RNA
polymerase bound at the promoter (624).
Mark Steven
Ptashne (US) isolated the lambda
phage repressor shortly thereafter (1365).
Mark Steven
Ptashne (US), Walter Gilbert (US), and Benno Müller-Hill (DE) developed methods
for purifying and testing repressor protein and proved that Jacob and Monod’s
theory of the operon was correct;
that repressor is the proteinaceous
product of a repressor gene and interacts with a specific operator region on
the DNA molecule (625; 1366). Note: This was the first genetic control
protein to be isolated.
Karin Ippen (US), Jeffrey H. Miller (US), John Scaife (GB), and
Jonathan Roger Beckwith (US) discovered the promoter
for the lactose operon of Escherichia
coli (reintroducing a term that had been used previously, with a different
meaning, by Jacob, Ullman and Monod). They suggested that it is transcription
that begins at the promoter. Moreover, as there was no evidence that the lacO region is translated, they proposed
that translation begins just downstream of lacO,
in a region that Jacob, Ullman and Monod had previously suggested was important
for gene expression (834).
Larry Eron (US) and Ricardo Block (US) elegantly confirmed the promoter using an in vitro transcription system (513).
Walter Gilbert (US), Jay Gralla
(US),
John Majors (US), and Allan Maxam (US) determined that
the Lac repressor functions by blocking access of the RNA polymerase to its initiation site (623).
Leonard
Guarente (US), Jeffrey S. Nye (US), Ann Hochschild (US), Mark Steven
Ptashne
(US), and Nina Irwin (US) showed that the bacteriophage lambda repressor not only represses
transcription at the lambda PR
and PL promoters, but also activates
transcription at the lambda PRM
promoter. They proposed that activation required a protein–protein interaction
between the lambda repressor and RNA polymerase (680; 777).
Mei Li (US), Henry Moyle (US), and Mariam M. Susskind (US)
obtained compelling support for this proposed interaction and identified its
target as a surface in the – sigma subunit of RNA polymerase holoenzyme (1038).
Arthur Beck
Pardee (US) crystallized and characterized a protein that appears to be the
recognition part of the sulfate transport system of Salmonella typhimurium (1304).
Anne Norris
Baldwin (US) and Paul Berg (US) purified and determined the properties of isoleucyl ribonucleic acid synthetase
from Escherichia coli. This enzyme
recognizes tRNA for isoleucine and activates it by attaching a molecule of
isoleucine (72).
Julien
Marcot-Queiroz (FR) and Roger Monier (FR) isolated 18S ribosomal RNA (18SrRNA)
from the ribosomes of Escherichia coli (1107).
Radoslav J. Bachvaroff (RU-US) and Veniamin S. Tongur (RU) isolated 5S
ribosomal RNA (5SrRNA) from mammalian tissue (61).
Jerry M.
Adams (US) and Mario Renato Capecchi (US) determined that N-formylmethionyl
transfer RNA is the initiator of protein synthesis in Escherichia coli (6).
Alan E.
Smith (GB) and Kjeld Adrian Marcker (DK) determined that N-formylmethionyl
transfer RNA is the initiator of protein synthesis in yeast and rat liver
mitochondria (1555).
Philip S.
Rudland (GB) and Shyam K. Dube (US) found that in Escherichia coli the initiator tRNA binds with the 30S fragment of
the ribosome (1445).
Douglas M.
Fambrough (US) and James Frederick Bonner (US) discovered that there are only
five different species of histones (each with its subspecies) (527).
Jean-Francois
Petit (BE), Emilio Munoz (ES), Melina Leyh-Bouille (BE), Donald J. Tipper (US),
Jack Leonard Strominger (US), Walther Katz (DE), Evanghelos Bricas (NL), Marvin
Lache (US), Gerald D. Shockman (US), Philippe Dezélée (FR), Hans Heymann (US),
Jacques Coyette (BE), and Jean-Marie Ghuysen (BE) described the complex matrix
of the bacterial peptidoglycan—a closed net-like polymer of glycan strands and
cross-linked peptides—and the biochemistry of the penicillin-binding proteins
(PBPs), targets of a vast family of antibiotics capable of destroying bacteria
by inhibiting cell wall synthesis (194; 358; 615-617; 1032; 1207; 1334; 1614; 1677).
David
Freifelder (US) determined that x-ray inactivation of bacteriophage T7 results
primarily from double strand breakage in DNA (578).
Henry
Seymour Kaplan (US) found that in Escherichia
coli single-strand scissions caused by x-irradiation are usually repaired
during reincubation (901).
Robert A.
McGrath (US) and Robert W. Williams (US) demonstrated that Escherichia coli possesses a mechanism, probably enzymatic, to
repair DNA damaged by x-rays (1132).
David
Freifelder (US), using phages T5, T4, T7, and lambda, calculated that mechanisms other than strand breakage
(presumably base damage) were responsible for about half of the killing (579).
Hideo Okeda
(JP) and Jun-ichi Tomizawa (JP) showed that prophage P1, unlike lambda,
is a plasmid and not part of the host chromosome (827).
Bernard S.
Strauss (US), Tetsuo Searashi (JP), and Mary Louise Robbins (US) showed that an
extract of Micrococcus lysodeikticus
acts like an endonuclease specific for DNA that contains radiation-induced
lesions, most probably pyrimidine dimers (1613). Note: Micrococcus
lysodeikticus is now called Micrococcus
luteus.
Yasuyuki
Takagi (JP), Mutsuo Sekiguchi (JP), Shunzo Okubo (JP), Hiroaki Nakayama (JP),
Kazunori Shimada (JP), Seiichi Yasuda (JP), Takeharu Nishimoto (JP), and Hajime
Yoshihara (JP) discovered endonuclease V (five) in Micrococcus lysodeikticus. This enzyme recognizes and removes
pyrimidine dimers (1641).
Errol C.
Friedberg (US) and John J. King (US) reported that phage T4 encodes an enzyme (ultraviolet endonuclease of T4) that
specifically recognizes pyrimidine dimers and incises the DNA at these sites (587).
Note: This endonuclease has been called variously, endonuclease V (five), ultraviolet endonuclease of T4, and denV endonuclease of phage T4—after the denV (dNA endonuclease V) gene
(formally the v+gene),
which encodes it.
Jonathan
Roger Beckwith (US) and Ethan R. Signer (US) described a technique for
isolating transpositions of lac to
specific regions of the Escherichia coli
chromosome (112). This work
signaled that chromosomes could be redesigned at will, and genes could be moved
from one replicon to another. In many ways this represents the dawn of genetic
engineering.
Dieter Söll
(DE-US), David S. Jones (US), Eiko Ohtsuka (US), Robert D. Faulkner (US), Rolf
Lohrmann (US), Hikoya Hayatsu (JP), Har Gobind Khorana (IN-US), Joseph D. Cherayil
(US), Arnold E. Hampel (US), Robert M. Bock (DE), Susumu Nishimura (JP), Uttam
L. RajBhandary (US), Richard E. Marshall (US), Charles Thomas Caskey (US), and
Marshall Warren Nirenberg (US) presented evidence that the genetic code is
universal, that there is remarkable similarity in codon-base sequences
recognized by bacterial, amphibian, and mammalian AA-tRNA. This suggested that
most, perhaps all, forms of life on the planet use essentially the same genetic
language, and that the language is translated according to universal rules (1112; 1569; 1570; 1572; 1573).
William
Meredith Stanley, Jr. (US), Margarita Salas (US), Albert J. Wahba (US), and
Severo Ochoa (ES-US-ES) established that in Escherichia
coli there exists an initiation signal (AUG) for protein synthesis and that
two factors (F1 and F2) other than the transfer enzymes
are required for the translation of this signal (1586).
Kentaro
Iwasaki (US), Steven Sabol (US), Albert J. Wahba (US), and Severo Ochoa
(ES-US-ES) determined that a third factor (F3) is also necessary for
initiation of the translation of mRNA in Escherichia
coli (838).
Severo Ochoa
(ES-US-ES) determined that translation of the messenger RNA consists of three
main phases, chain initiation, elongation, and termination. He enumerated all
the chemical factors and enzymes necessary for the process (1267).
Hans Georg
Zachau (DE), Dieter Dütting (DE), Horst Feldmann (DE), Fritz Melchers (DE), and
Wolfgang Karau (DE) proposed that all tRNAs have a cloverleaf type secondary
structure (1864).
John P.
Richardson (US), using T7 bacteriophage, found that RNA polymerase has approximately 50 specific binding sites on a
single T7 DNA molecule (1408).
Peter Traub
(US), Kei-ichi Hosokawa (JP), Masayasu Nomura (JP-US), and Dieter Söll (DE-US)
showed that the alteration of the 30 S ribosomal component as Escherichia coli mutates to streptomycin
resistance occurs not in the RNA but rather in the protein fraction. They
subsequently identified the specific protein and designated it P10 (1688-1692).
Brian F.C. Clark
(GB-DK), Kjeld Adrian Marcker (DK), Donald A. Kellogg (US), Bhupendra
P. Doctor
(US), Judith E. Loebel (US), and Marshall Warren Nirenberg (US) presented
evidence that in Escherichia coli a
non-dializable factor is necessary for the attachment of mRNA to a 30S
ribosomal subunit. They also found that two additional non-dializable factors
plus GTP are necessary for the binding of N-formyl-met-tRNA to the 30S
ribosome-mRNA complex in response to an initiator codon (AUG or GUG) (308; 927).
Keiichi
Hosokawa (US), Robert K. Fujimura (US) and Masayasu Nomura (US) showed that
reconstituted 30S and 50S ribosomal particles have activities comparable to the
original intact particles. Any subunits of these particles such as 23S and 40S
have no cell-free protein synthesizing ability (800).
William A.
Held (US), Shoji Mizushima (JP), and Masayasu Nomura (JP-US) separated and
purified each of the proteins in the 30 S subunit and then reconstituted
functionally active 30 S subunits from these purified components and 16 S RNA.
This reconstitution proved that the necessary information for the assembly of
active ribosomes is contained in their molecular components rather than in some
extraneous factor (739).
William A.
Held (US), Byron Ballou (US), Shoji Mizushima (JP), and Masayasu Nomura (JP-US)
generated a revised "assembly map” showing the cooperative effects among
the various 30 S ribosomal proteins in the assembly reaction of the 30S subunit
(738).
William A.
Held (US) and Masayasu Nomura (JP-US) showed that the S16 and S18 ribosomal
proteins from E. coli play roles in
the assembly process of the 30S ribosomal subunit but do not have a functional
role in the polypeptide chain elongation (740).
Margit M.K.
Nass (US) was the first to demonstrate the circularity of mitochondrial DNA (1217).
René Thomas
(BE) performed experiments suggesting that temperate virus is kept in the
prophage state because a gene, N, is
not being expressed. Gene N is itself
blocked by a substance produced by gene cI
plus (1670).
Henryk
Kubinska (US), Zofia Opara-Kubinska (US), Waclaw Szybalski (US), and Peter
Sheldrick (US) postulated that DNA sites rich in cytosine are likely to act as
initiation points for the transcription of RNA and if both strands contained
such sites then both strands could be transcribed (975; 1639).
Karol Taylor
(PL), Zdenka Hradecna (CZ), and Waclaw Szybalski (US) confirmed this prediction
with coliphage lambda, which provided
the first example of in vivo
transcription from both DNA strands and went on to find that in the noninduced
state the majority mRNA is transcribed from the W (light) strand, most probably
being the product of gene cI. Upon
induction or infection two regions adjoining the cI gene start to be transcribed: the predominant product is copied
from strand W in the same direction as gene cI,
through genes N-to-a, whereas the minority mRNA is copied
in the opposite direction, i.e., from left-to-right, from strand C (dense)
through the x-O operon (1639; 1654).
Ora
Mendelsohn Rosen (US) and Samuel M. Rosen (US) found that fructose 1,6-diphosphatase from Candida
utilis possesses a site responsible for inhibition by AMP, which is
distinct from the site involved in its catalytic activity. This indicates that FDPase is an allosteric enzyme (1431).
Donald L.
Schneider (US), Yasuo Kagawa (US), Larry W. Johnson (US), M. Anne Kandrach
(US), and Efraim Racker (PL-AT-US) developed a method for incorporating
isolated transport enzymes into artificial vesicles made of phospholipids. They
then went on to make membranes, which incorporated the F0F1,
complex. Complexes were inverted with respect to normal mitochondria, that is,
the F1 knobs were on the outer surface rather than the inner one. As
a result, the splitting of ATP by F0F1 complex
transported protons inward (885; 886; 889; 1491).
Richard G.
Jensen (US) and James Al Bassham (US) demonstrated that isolated chloroplasts
could carry out complete photosynthesis (862).
André Tridon
Jagendorf (US) and Ernest G. Uribe (US) demonstrated that ATP could be
generated in isolated chloroplasts by imposing an artificial pH gradient across
the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast (844). This
experiment supported Peter Mitchell’s chemiosmotic theory of ATP synthesis.
Michael C.W.
Evans (GB), and Bob B. Buchanan (US), and Daniel Israel Arnon (PL-US)
discovered a new path of photosynthetic carbon dioxide assimilation in
bacteria, the reductive carboxylic acid cycle (reverse of citric acid cycle) (218; 520).
Yasuo Kagawa
(US), Youssef Hatefi (IR-US), Kerstin E. Stempel (US), Marietta L. Baginsky
(US), Alessandro Bruni (US), Efraim Racker (PL-AT-US), John T. Penniston (US),
Harold D. Vande Zande (US), David Ezra Green (US), and James F. Perdue (US)
demonstrated that most of the electron carriers in the mitochondrial inner
membrane, rather than existing individually, are combined with proteins into
major complexes (66; 214; 669; 727; 889; 1320).
Charles R.
Hackenbrock (US) determined that mitochondria from rat livers alter their shape
as their metabolic activity varies (692).
Robert S.
Edgar (US) and William B. Wood (US) made the quite unexpected discovery that
assembly of the T-even phage tail and its attachment to a preexisting,
DNA-filled phage head can proceed spontaneously in vitro (488; 1831). Along with
Jonathan Alan King (US), Ilga Lielausis (US), and M. Henninger (US) they went
on to formulate a pathway for intracellular assembly of bacteriophage T4 (946; 1832).
David
Swenson Hogness (US), Walter Doerfler (US), J. Barry Egan (US), and Lindsey W.
Black (US) were able to prove that the genetic map of the phage established by
recombination experiments represents the arrangement of genes on the phage DNA
molecule (788).
Marcus
Morton Rhoades (US) and Ellen Dempsey (US) discovered that an abnormal form of
chromosome 10 in maize possesses a unique system of meiotic drive. When this
chromosome is heterologous with a normal chromosome 10 about 70% of female
gametes will receive the abnormal form. About 50% of male gametes will receive
it (1407).
Bill R.
Brinkley (US) and T. Elton Stubblefield (US) first described the kinetochore.
They saw, by electron microscopy, a trilaminar, proteinaceous disc structure
that flanked the centromere (196).
Ludwig
Guttmann (DE-GB) and Hans L. Frankel (GB) established clean intermittent
self-catheterization (689).
Carmia Borek
(US) and Leo Sachs (US-IL) showed that x-irradiation could induce cell
transformation (160).
Dorothea
Zucker-Franklin (US), Zanvil Alexander Cohn (US), James Gerald Hirsch (US), and
Martha E. Fedorko (US) discovered that the phagosomes of granulocytes move
centripetally prior to fusion with lysosomal granules (321; 1873).
Jane Mink
Rossen (DK) and Majken Westergaard (DK) demonstrated conclusively that
recombination takes place during prophase I of meiosis (1436).
Roger Yate
Stanier (CA), Norberto J. Palleroni (US), and Michael Doudoroff (RU-US)
described 169 phenotypic characters of 267 strains of Pseudomonas. Their ability to utilize 146 different organic
compounds as sources of carbon and energy was noted. RNA and DNA homologies
were later used to refine relationships. They concluded by developing a
practical scheme for the identification of twenty-nine species of Pseudomonas (1299; 1585).
Sarit Kumar
Shome (IN) and Usha Shome (IN) found a fungus capable of trapping nematodes (1521).
Sean P.
Flanagan (GB) described a homozygous recessive nude (nu) mutation on
chromosome 11 in mice (556).
Evagoras
Michael Pantelouris (GR-GB) would later report that nude mice are congenitally athymic, leading to their widespread use
in biomedical research (1301).
Pinghui V.
Liu (US) isolated a lethal, heat-labile exotoxin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Injection of the toxin into dogs resulted
in hemodynamic and biochemical changes associated with shock and death. These
changes included acidosis, elevated levels of catecholamines, an increased
arterial-venous difference in oxygen saturation, circulatory collapse, and
leucopenia. These observations were like those made in pseudomonas infections (1060). This toxin
was shown by others to inhibit protein synthesis just like the diphtheria
toxin.
Warren
Herbert Wagner, Jr. (US) and Florence S. Wagner (US) published a series of
studies showing that ferns hybridize freely, and that hybridization is a major
source of new species in plants (1739-1743).
Henry Harris
(AU-GB), Richard Charles Lewontin (US), and Jack L. Hubby (US) established that
a high level of polymorphism is the normal condition in populations of man and Drosophila (713; 1031).
Jack L.
Hubby (US) and Richard Charles Lewontin (US) introduced the use of
electrophoresis as a tool for studying polymorphisms (811).
At the 1966 Chicago Conference: Standardization in Human
Cytogenetics cytogeneticists recommended a standardized method for briefly
representing the karyotype in publications. They suggested that p and q designate the chromosomal short and long arms respectively. A
diagonal line is used to separate cell lines in a mosaic. A plus sign (+) or a
minus sign (-) after an autosomal number or group letter indicates that a
particular chromosome is extra or missing, respectively; when used immediately
after an arm designation (p or q) it means that part is abnormally long
or abnormally short. Satellite is referred to by s, translocation by t,
isochromosome by i. Examples are:
45, X is the
usual karyotype of Turner’s syndrome
47, XXY is
the usual karyotype of Klinefelter’s syndrome
47, XX, G+
is the karyotype of a female with Down’s syndrome
45, X/46,
XX/47, XXX is a triple line mosaic
46, XY, 5p- is the karyotype of a male with cri du chat syndrome
45, XX, D-,
G-, t (DqGq)+ is the karyotype of a Down’s syndrome carrier
46, Xxqi is
the karyotype of a female with Turner’s syndrome due to isochromosome of the
long arm of one X chromosome (1).
Italo
Testa-Bappenheim (IT), Anil K. Jain (IN-US), Salil Prabhakar (IN-US), and
Sharath Pankanti; Sharathchandra U. Pankanti (IN-US) gave evidence that monozygotic twins
share the same genetic makeup, meaning that their DNA is practically
indistinguishable. However, a fingerprint is not entirely dependent on
genetics. Along with other physical characteristics, the outcome is determined
by the interaction of the individual's genes and the environment as it develops
in the uterus. The ultimate shape of the fingerprints is likely influenced by
environmental factors, such as blood pressure, nutrition, position in the womb,
and growth rate of the fingers at the end of first trimester. Therefore, you
will find similar patterns of whorls and ridges in the fingerprints of
identical twins, but there will also be differences (845; 1665). There may be an earlier reference.
Alfred W.
Bauer (US), William M.M. Kirby (US), John C. Sherris (US), and Marvin Turck
(US) provided a standardized single disk method to test susceptibility of
microorganisms to antibiotics (the Kirby-Bauer technique). This disk diffusion
method could be used with ease and provide reliable results (97). The
theoretical and practical studies of Hans Ericsson (SE) and Gunvor
Svartz-Malmberg (SE) helped prepare the way for this advance (512).
George M.
Hughes (US) founded the modern age of gill biophysics, by measuring various
gill tissue dimensions in fish ranging from 12 g mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) to 1.5 kg angler fish (Lophius piscatorius), to analyze gill resistance to water flow.
This is the first study to apply engineering principles to gills. Hughes
came to two conclusions: 1) the gill surface area correlates with lifestyle in
marine fishes, as Gray had already stated (666), as well as for
hemoglobin-free icefish (Chaenocephalus sp.) and two fresh-water species; the
sea trout (Salmo trutta) and the
tench (Tinca tinca) and 2) not only
was the mesh of the gill sieve formed by the interlamellar spaces calculated to
be large enough to allow direct ventilation, but also the maximum calculated
ventilatory rate based on the morphometric data was an order of magnitude
greater than that measured physiologically (817).
Marian R. Neutra (US) and Charles
Philippe Leblond (CA) examined the goblet cells of the rat intestine, which had
the twin virtues of secreting lots of carbohydrate-loaded mucin glycoprotein
and having a large, distinctive U-shaped Golgi complex. They found that
radioactive sugars concentrate exclusively in the Golgi early and then move out
to the mucigen granules later. The results were confirmed with other sugars and
other cell types. They concluded that the Golgi is the site where simple sugars
become immobilized on larger molecules (1229; 1230).
Paul Whur
(CA), Annette Herscovics (CA), and Charles Philippe Leblond (CA) confirmed that
the addition of carbohydrate groups to glycoproteins is coordinated in the
endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex (1804).
Robert Smith (US) and Marilyn Gist
Farquhar (US) working with prolactin secreting pituitary cells found that
excess secretory granules are not stored but fuse with multivesicular bodies
(MVBs) that then mature and fuse with lysosomes. They also noted that excess endoplasmic
reticulum and ribosomes, ramped up for prolactin production, were
down-regulated by autophagic structures that also converged on the lysosomal
pathway (1563).
Henry
Neumann Claman (US), Edward A. Chaperon (US), and R. Fraser Triplett (US)
demonstrated that for an immune response to take place interactions between
cells of bone marrow origin and those of thymus origin are required (303; 304).
Charlotte
Friend (US), Maria Cecilia Patuleia (US), Etienne deHarven (US), Giovanni B.
Rossi (IT), William Scher (US), J. Gilbert Holland (US), and Toru Sato (US)
were able to establish permanent cell lines in culture from tumor cells and
show that, even when cloned, these cultures consisted of undifferentiated cells
and a small percentage of cells at various stages of erythroid maturation. They
found that cancer cells could be induced to differentiate by exogenous agents
such as dimethyl sulfoxide and, thereby, lose their ability to multiply. In
other words, the malignant phenotype can be reversed experimentally (588-590; 1313; 1437).
Robert I.
Mishell (US), Richard William Dutton (US), John Marbrook (AU), William A.
Robinson (AU), and Erwin Diener (AU) devised methods for generating primary
antibody responses in vitro using
tissue culture. The
in vitro response closely parallels
that observed in vivo with respect to size, early
kinetics, antigen dose, and the inhibitory
effect of passive antibody (477; 1104; 1172; 1173; 1415).
E. Richard Stiehm (US) and H. Hugh Fudenberg (US) determined
serum levels of IgG, IgM, and IgA immunoglobulins on 296 normal infants and
children at various ages and in 30 adults. The technique employed radial
immunodiffusion in agar, using monospecific antisera. The marked alterations of
immunoglobulins with age, particularly in the first year of life, necessitate
comparison of the immunoglobulins obtained on any pediatric patient with
appropriate age-matched controls (1608).
Sydney
Brenner (ZA-GB) and Cesar Milstein (AR-GB) discussed how molecular diversity is
produced among antibodies (190).
Julia Bodmer
(GB), Walter Fred Bodmer (GB), Rose Payne (US), Paul Ichiro Terasaki (US), and
Donna L. Vredevoe (US) were among the pioneers in human leukocyte antigen (HLA)
cell typing (156).
Susumu
Mitsuhashi (JP), Nobutaka Osawa (JP), Kazuko Saito (JP), Satonori Kurashige
(JP), Frank M. Collins (US), George Bellamy Mackaness (US), and Robert Vincent
Blanden (AU) discovered that macrophages must be activated before they can
destroy the bacteria causing salmonellosis (325; 1086; 1180; 1181).
Eliezer
Huberman (IL) and Leo Sachs (US-IL) demonstrated that there is a systematic
relationship between dose of carcinogen and number of transformed colonies of
cells (813).
Andrzej
Krzysztof Tarkowski (PL) developed a technique which enabled observing
chromosomes in oocytes, which has been widely used in early studies of the embryo
(1648).
Douglas E.
Smith (US), Bruce Nathan Ames (US), Frank D. Lee (US), William E. Durston (US),
Joyce McCann (US), Edmund Choi (US), Edith Yamasaki (US), and Kim Hooper (US)
developed a rapid and inexpensive bacterial assay technique to test the
mutagenicity of a chemical. This assay—now called the Ames test—also turned out
to be a sensitive way to screen chemicals as potential carcinogenic agents (27-30; 1123; 1124; 1559).
Theodore M.
Bayless (US) and Norton S. Rosensweig (S) surveyed the incidence of milk
intolerance and lactase deficiency in 40 healthy nonpatient volunteers. There
were 20 blacks and 20 whites. Nineteen of the 20 black subjects and two of the
20 white subjects gave a history of milk intolerance. The majority had noted
the onset during or after adolescence. Lactose intolerance occurred in 20 of
the 21 milk-intolerant subjects; 18 of the 20 were blacks. There was also a
prominent racial difference in the incidence of low levels of intestinal
lactase activity. Deficient levels were observed in 70% of the 20 blacks in
contrast to only one of 20 whites. These data strongly favor a genetic etiology
for the isolated lactase deficiencies seen so commonly in adults (101).
Elizabeth
Mapelsden Ramsey (US), Chester B. Martin, Jr. (US), Harry S. McGaughey, Jr.
(US), Irwin H. Kaiser (US), and Martin W. Donner (US) concluded that maternal
blood pressure is the the propulsive force which drives blood into the
placental intervillous spaces in discreet, fountain-like “spurts.” The incoming
blood wafts aside the villi surrounding the orifices of entry, but once
the propulsive force is reduced, in part by the, baffle action of the villi,
the blood disperses laterally crowding the existing content of blood through
the venous orifices in the basal plate into the uterine drainage channels
(Fig. 8). During uterine contractions both inflow and outflow
cease, in whole or in part, depending upon the strength of the contraction (1381).
Daniel S.
Bernstein (US), Norman Sadowsky (US), D. Mark Hegsted (US), Charles D. Guri
(US), and Frederic J. Stare (US) summoned evidence that osteoporosis, reduced
bone density, and collapsed vertebrae was substantially higher in the
low-fluoride area, especially in women. Visible calcification of the aorta was
significantly higher in the lowfluoride area, particularly in men. Limited
information on milk and cheese consumption does not indicate that differences
in calcium consumption are a significant factor. Fluoride consumption is
important in the prevention of osteoporosis and may also play a significant
role in preventing calcification of the aorta (130).
Jacques
Glowinski (FR) and Leslie L. Iversen (GB) made regional studies of
catecholamines in the rat brain, determining the disposition of [3H]
norepinephrine, [3H] dopamine and [3H] dopa in various regions of the brain (631).
Dennis M.
Burley (GB) set up the first clinical trials testing the efficacy of rifampicin
(rifampin, rifamycin, or rifaldazine) as an antituberculous drug. It turned out
to be very efficient. Ref
Francoise
Grumbach (FR) and Noel Rist (FR) found rifampicin to be a potent
antituberculous drug in both animal and human studies,comparable with isoniazid
in its activity (677).
P.J.
Coletsos (), V. Nitti (), E. Catena (), A. Ninni (), A. Di Filippo (), Adam
Vojtech Havel (CZ), Jaromir Tousek (CZ), Ludek Trnka (CZ), Adalbert Liener
(AT), O. Jahn (AT), Michele Lucchesi (IT), Pietro Mancini (IT), and Martino
Zubiani (IT) introduced rifampin—a
lipophilic ansamycin—into tuberculosis therapy (323; 731; 1047; 1074; 1248).
Robert H.
Gelber (GB), Michael F.R. Waters (GB), James M.H. Pearson (GB), Roland J.W.
Rees (GB), and A. Colin McDougall (GB) demonstrated that rifampicin is an excellent anti-leprosy drug (605).
Harry M.
Meyer, Jr. (US), Paul Douglas Parkman (US), and Theodore Constantine Panos (US)
developed a vaccine against rubella virus (1153).
Eugene B.
Buynak (US) and Maurice Ralph Hilleman (US) described their live attenuated
mumps virus vaccine (244). Note: Hilleman had
obtained, then isolated, the virus from his daughter in 1963.
Seiichi
Matsumoto (JP) and Kaneatsu Miyamoto (JP) presented their electron-microsopic
studies on rabies virus multiplication and the nature of the Negri body (1118).
Max H. Weil
(US), S. Herbert Shubin (US), and William M. Rand (US) introduced the first
operational computer system for full-scale clinical monitoring in January 1965 (1780).
Stuart
Schlossman (US), Shlomo Ben-Efraim (IL), Arieh Yaron (IL), and Herbert A. Sober
(US) produced
studies on the antigenic determinants required to elicit delayed and immediate
hypersensitivity reactions (1485).
Paul Ichiro
Terasaki (US), Donna L. Vredevoe (US), Max Ray Mickey (US), Kendrick Arthur
Porter (US), Thomas L. Marchioro (US), Tanous D. Faris (US), and Thomas Earl
Starzl (US) carried out the first prospective trial of HLA matching for donor
selection (1662).
Deborah Doniach (GB), Ivan M. Roitt (GB), Geoffrey J. Walker (GB) and
Sheila Sherlock (GB) reported the finding of mitochondrial antibodies in the
serum of almost all cases of primary
biliary cirrhosis and in very few patients having other clinically similar
disorders. This made it possible to avoid unnecessary and harmful laparotomies
by a correct preoperative diagnosis of the ‘autoimmune’ cases (457).
Moses Judah
Folkman (US), David M. Long, Jr. (US), and Richard Rosenbaum (US) were the
first to report the use of silicone rubber implantable polymers for sustained
drug release (564).
Myron Winick
(US) and Andadele Noble (US), by measuring DNA content and RNA/DNA and
protein/DNA ratios of various rat organs, showed that neonatal malnutrition
retarded the rate of cell division, permanently reducing cell number. By
contrast, later malnutrition prevented the increase in cell size, a change that
was reversible on refeeding (1823).
Elizabeth
Caroline Crosby (US), Richard Coy Schneider (US), Bud R. DeJonge (US), and Paul
Szonyi (US) reported that the basal ganglia and the cerebellum are critical for
the acquisition of skills such as playing a violin or skating (375).
George
Francis Cahill, Jr. (US), M. Guillermo Herrera (US), Alfred P. Morgan (US),
John Stuart Soeldner (US), Jurgin Steinke (US), P.L. Levy (US), George A.
Reichard, Jr. (US), and David Morris Kipnis (US) found that after the first few
days of starvation, mammals have depleted their stores of glycogen and have
begun to satisfy cerebral glucose needs by a gluconeogenic attack on body
proteins. To offset this serious threat to body proteins, ketones substitute to
an increasing degree for glucose, and body proteins are thereby spared (248).
George
Francis Cahill, Jr. (US) and Oliver E. Owen (US) noted that quantitatively,
amino acids are the major source of carbon for gluconeogenesis and can be
oxidized to CO2 and H2O during starvation. When the
carbon skeletons of the amino acids are converted to glucose in the liver, the
amino nitrogen is used for the synthesis of urea via the urea cycle and is
excreted in the urine (249).
Daniel G.
Sapir (US), Oliver E. Owen (US), J. T. Cheng (US), Richard Ginsberg (US),
Guenther Boden (US) , and William G. Walker (US) demonstrated the exquisite
sensitivity of urinary nitrogen excretion rates to ingestion of small
quantities of carbohydrate (1469).
Ian P.
Howard (GB) and William Brian Templeton (GB) presented a review about how
people perceive the direction and orientation of things. Early chapters review
the relevant physiology of vision, eye movements, kinesthesis, the vestibular
system, and auditory localization. Middle chapters review behavioral studies on
gravitational, geographical, and egocentric orientation. End chapters review
the behavioral consequences of distorting sensory inputs, with a chapter on the
behavioral effects of weightlessness (801).
Phillip I.
Lerner (US) and Louis Weinstein (US) reviewed one hundred patients with
infectious endocarditis over an eight-year period and concluded that we yet do
not know the correct dose, duration, or combination of antibiotics necessary to
treat most cases, and, indeed, we probably over-treat most patients because we
lack this knowledge. Even more discouragingly they found that early diagnosis
remains an elusive goal, thereby delaying the initiation of appropriate
therapy, which unfortunately still determines the ultimate outcome in most
patients with infective endocarditis (1026).
Elliott F.
Osserman (US) and Dolores P. Lawlor (US) found markedly elevated concentrations
of the enzyme lysozyme in the serum
and urine of patients with monocytic and monomyelocytic leukemia (1288).
Reuben
Matalon (US) and Albert Dorfman (US) determined that elevated dermatan sulfate
is characteristic of fibroblasts from Hurler’s
syndrome patients (1116).
Elizabeth
Fondal Neufeld (US), Joseph C. Fratantoni (US), Clara W. Hall (US), Ulrich N.
Wiesmann (US), Scot Hickman (US), Gideon Bach (IL), Frank Eisenberg, Jr. (US),
and Michael Cantz (DE) demonstrated that mucopolysaccharide storage disorders
stem from defects in degradative enzymes, e.g. Hunter and Hurler syndromes. They also demonstrated that excess
mucopolysaccharides accumulate within lysosomes—the minute cellular organelles
in which large molecules are broken down—thus, also defining these conditions
as lysosomal storage disorders. Additionally, they discovered the specific
enzyme deficiencies involved in several diseases of this group (60; 575; 576; 761; 1228; 1808).
Robert W.
Barton (US), Elizabeth Fondal Neufeld (US), Michael Cantz (DE), Andreas
Chrambach (US), and Gideon Bach (IL) found that Hurler syndrome could be
corrected by a macromolecular factor derived from fibroblasts or urine from
donors who did not have Hurler syndrome. They purified and characterized the
factor (92; 257).
Reuben
Matalon (US) and Albert Dorfman (US) showed that fibroblasts of Hurler’s syndrome patients are deficient
in alpha-L-iduronidase needed to degrade polysaccharides (1117). This was
the first enzyme defect established in the mucopolysaccharidoses. Both Hurler Syndrome and Scheie Syndrome are due to a deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase.
Timple W.
Lim (US), Irwin G. Leder (US), Gideon Bach (IL), Elizabeth Fondal Neufeld (US),
Inge Liebaers (DE), and Paola Di Natale (IT) developed the special methods and
chemicals that now make it relatively easy to diagnose patients with these
diseases and to perform prenatal diagnosis for these diseases. This work has
also led to new concepts regarding the transport of enzymes to lysosomes, with
implications for basic cell biology and for possible enzyme replacement (1045; 1055; 1227).
Olga Suhren
(NL-DE), George W. Bruyn (NL), and J.A. Tuynman (NL) demonstrated that a defect
in the inhibitory glycinergic pathway is responsible for the pathology of familial startle disease (hyperekplexia) in humans (1619).
Zvi Laron
(RO-IL), Athalia Pertzelan (IL), and Shoshana Mannheimer (IL) described a new
kind of genetic dwarfism with high serum levels of human growth hormone. The
original paper hypothesized a defective growth hormone molecule, but the
problem is a defective growth hormone receptor gene (997).
Francois
Dessertenne (FR) was the first to describe torsade
de pointes heart waves. This is a specific form of dangerous ventricular
tachycardia in which an undulating series of ventricular beats appear on the
QRS axis (427).
Henry T.
Lynch (US), Marjorie W. Shaw (US), Charles W. Magnuson (US), Arthur L. Larsen
(US), Anne J. Krush (US), Milton J. Swartz (US), Jane F. Lynch (US), William A.
Albano (US), Karen A. Biscone (US), Guy S. Schuelke (US), Avery Andren Sandberg
(US), Martin Lipkin (US), Eleanor E. Deschner (US), and Yves B. Mikol (US)
discovered familial predisposition to colorectal cancer with right-sided
predominance. Predominantly early-onset proximal colon carcinomas (Lynch syndrome I) and familial
predisposition for other primary cancers in addition to the predisposition for
colon cancer; site is often female reproductive organs. Predominantly early
onset proximal colon carcinoma associated with other extracolonic
adenocarcinomas, particularly endometrial carcinoma (Lynch syndrome II) (1081-1084). Both
disorders are inherited as autosomal dominant traits.
Robert H.
Wilkins (US), James A. Alexander (US), Guy L. Odom (US), William Hollander
(US), and Aram V. Chobanian (US) made outstanding contributions to the control
of heart and blood vessel diseases through investigations into causes,
diagnosis and treatment of hypertension (793; 1810-1814).
Mark W.
Steele (US) and William Roy Breg, Jr. (US) successfully cultured fetal cells
obtained from amniocentesis, which allowed for karyotyping of the chromosomes
and therefore for future diagnosis of aneuploidies such as trisomy 21, or Down's syndrome (1591).
Henry L.
Nadler (US) performed transabdominal amniocentesis on humans and succeeded in
the intra-uterine detection of Down's
syndrome, galactosemia, and mucopolysaccharidosis utilizing the
cultivated amniotic fluid cells (1214).
Maurice B.
Burg (US), Jared J. Grantham (US), Maurice Abramow (BE), and Jack Orloff (US)
developed the methodology for the preparation and study of perfused fragments
of single rabbit nephrons (227). This paper
ranks as one of the greatest advances in 20th century renal
physiology.
Gerald P.
Bodey (US), Monica Buckley (US), Y.S. Sathe (US), and Emil J. Freireich (US)
presented a study, which examined the quantitative relationships between the
presence of infection and the degree and duration of leukemia in patients with
acute leukemia. Methods; Leukocyte distribution; Cranulocytes and infection (155).
Eng Meng Tan
(US) and Henry G. Kunkel (US) demonstrated that sera of patients with systemic
lupus erythematosus contain precipitating antibodies to soluble tissue
components other than DNA. One dominant reaction was observed which was
provisionally termed the Sm system. The antigen involved was identified in
nuclei of a wide variety of cells from different species. It was associated
with protein fractions but was a non-histone substance quite sensitive to
periodate treatment. Antibodies to the Sm antigen could also be detected by
complement fixation. They showed a high incidence in systemic lupus
erythematosus with considerable specificity for the disease (1646).
James L.
McGaugh (US) made
observations indicating that the long-lasting trace of an experience is not
completely fixed, consolidated, or coded at the time of the experience.
Consolidation requires time, and under at least some circumstances the
processes of consolidation appear to be susceptible to a variety of influences—
both facilitating and impairing— several hours after the experience. There must
be, it seems, more than one kind of memory trace process (31). If permanent
memory traces consolidate slowly over time, then other processes must provide a
temporary basis for memory while consolidation is occurring. The evidence
clearly indicates that trial-to-trial improvement, or learning, in animals
cannot be based completely on permanent memory storage. Electroshock and drugs
can produce amnesia even if the animals are given the treatment long after they
have demonstrated "learning" of the task (1131).
Catherine Tchobroutsky
(FR), Monique Clauvel (FR) and Daniel N. Laurent (FR) provided long-term
support of puppies and fetal lambs in a controlled environment using
extracorporeal circulation (1656).
Robert B.
Salter (CA) introduced the classic innominate osteotomy in the treatment of
congenital dislocation and subluxation of the hip in the older child (1459).
Oscar
Creech, Jr. (US) combined the endoaneurysmorrhaphy technique of Matas with
graft replacement that left the aneurysmal sac in place (371).
Richard H.
Dyer, Jr. (US) pioneered a renewed interest in intraoperative autotransfusion
leading to the development of the first commercial auto-transfusion apparatus (478).
Ilyia
Iosifovich Gokhman (RU) examined a skeleton (No. 6285-9) from the Vasilyevka II
cemeteries in
the Dnieper Rapids region, Ukraine, with evidence that trephination—
surgical removal of bone from the cranial vault— had been performed during the
Mesolithic period. The cemetery, excavated in 1953 by Abram Davydovich Stolyar (RU),
has been dated to between 7.3-6.2 K BCE, making this trephined cranium the
oldest known example of a healed trephination yet discovered. The skull has a
depression on its left side with a raised border of bone and 'stepping' in the
center showing stages of healing during life. The complete closure indicates
the survival rate of the patient, a man who was more than 50 years old at his
death (632; 1053).
Kurt W. Alt
(DE) and his colleagues discovered a 5,000 BCE burial at Ensisheim, in the
French region of Alsace, which yielded unequivocal evidence for trepanation (1745).
Elso
Sterrenberg Barghoorn (US) and J. William Schopf (US) discovered fossilized
cyanobacteria approximately 3.1 billion years old in Warrawoona Group rocks in
Africa (83).
Harry
Blackmore Whittington (GB), in 1966, began re-examining Burgess Shale fossils
originally identified by Charles Doolittle Walcott (US) starting in 1909. Over
the next two decades, Whittington, with the assistance of his graduate students
Simon Conway Morris (GB) and Derek Briggs (GB), eventually overturned Walcott's
theories that these organisms all belonged to modern phyla and proposed that
most of the specimens are much more complex than originally believed, and have
left no living relatives (336; 1199; 1802; 1803). The
Cambrian was a time of unparalleled innovation and experimentation in body
designs. Note: On closer examination
the Burgess fossils have been found to be not so different after all. Many of
the Burgess specimens have now been assigned to living phyla—just where Walcott
put them in the first place (217).
Henry de
Lumley (FR), at Terra Amata, in the south of France, found red, purple, yellow,
and brown ochre associated with Acheulian tools (c.a 300,000 BCE) with lumps of
the ochre showing signs of wear (404; 1444). Tribal peoples alive today use
ochre to treat animal skins, as an insect repellent, to staunch bleeding, and
as protection from the sun. Ochre may have been one of the first medicaments
used by primitive man. Ochre is a naturally occurring iron oxide.
Charles
Sutherland Elton (GB) described an ecological
survey as an attempt “…to discover and measure the main dynamic relations
between all organisms living on an area over some period of time” (506).
Joaquin Cravioto (MX), Elsa R. DeLicardie (MX), and
Herbert G. Birch (US) presented the results of an ecologic study
documenting that malnutrition in children influences the development of
effective interrelations among the separate sense systems as it influences the
child’s physical size. With the exception of mother’s education, none of the
demographic factors present in the malnourished environment influenced
neurointegrative development (369).
Richard
Charles Lewontin (US) and Louis Charles Birch (AU) noted that hybridization is a major source of genetic variation
for adapting species to new environments (1030).
John Maynard-Smith (GB) initiated the development of
mathematical models aiming to identify the conditions for sympatric speciation (1122).
Robert Treat
Paine (US) showed that “local species diversity is directly related to the
efficiency with which predators prevent monopolization of the major
environmental requisites by one species.” He used an area of shore on the outer
coast of Washington state where the sea star Pisaster ochraceus is the top carnivore. The viewpoint was supported by a controlled field
experiment involving sea star removal leading to a decline in community species
richness. He would later refer to a species impacting an ecosystem in this
manner as a keystone species (1296; 1297).
Anthony R.E.
Sinclair (TZ), Holly T. Dublin (US), and Markus Borner (CH), used the
Wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus (Burchell) population time series—monitored
by Sinclair from 1977 until a few years ago and supplemented by earlier
observations—a classic in population ecology, to show the population’s recovery
from the rinderpest virus throughout the 1960s and 1970s and then a levelling
off punctuated with drought-related declines. The elephant time series,
collected by both aerial and ground methods, showed that the stress of poachers
resulted in a zero birth rate between 1977 and 1987. A breakthrough discovery
came when they observed a huge population surge of wildebeest in the Serengeti
leading to the realization that wildebeest were the key to keeping the
ecosystem balanced by acting as a keystone species while serving as both
prey and predator (1536-1539).
Mary Eleanor
Power (US), David Tilman (US), James A. Estes (US), Bruce A. Menge (US),
William J. Bond (ZA), L. Scott Mills (US), Gretchen Daily (US), Juan Carlos
Castilla (CL), Jane Lubchenko (US), and Robert Treat Paine (US) redefined keystone
species as one whose impact on its community or ecosystem is large, and
disproportionatcly large relative to its abundance. They stressed that
identifying keystone species is difficult but worth the effort (1362).
John
Terborgh (US), Lawrence Lopez (US), Percy Nuñez (PE), Madhu Rao (US-GB), Ghazala
Shahabuddin (IN), Gabriela Orihuela (PU), Mailen Riveros (VE), Rafael Ascanio
(ES), Greg H. Adler (US, Thomas D. Lambert (CA), and Luis Balbas (VE) reported
that on small islands impounded by water, following dam construction, predators
of vertebrates are absent and densities of rodents, howler monkeys, iguanas,
and leaf-cutter ants are 10 to 100 times greater than on the nearby mainland,
suggesting that predators normally limit their populations. The densities of
seedlings and saplings of canopy trees are severely reduced on
herbivore-affected islands, providing evidence of a trophic cascade unleashed
in the absence of top-down regulation (1663). Note: typically jaguars,
which are predators of small vertebrates, and army ants, the major predator of
leaf cutter ants, were absent from these small islands.
James A.
Estes (US), Alexander Burdin (US), and Daniel F. Burdin (US) used recent and
historical information on sea otters and kelp forests to show that the
extinction of Steller's sea cow from the Commander Islands in the mid-1700s
would have been a nearly inevitable consequence of the overhunting of sea
otters, which occurred a decade earlier (519). Note: the sea otter is seen as the keystone
species.
Anthony R.E.
Sinclair (TZ) and L. Francisco Henao-Diaz (CA) used bird surveys to shown that
parks are effective in doubling bird diversity as compared to adjacent
agricultural fields (746).
George
Christopher Williams (US) offers an excellent explanation for adaptation and a
convincing defense of natural selection (1816).
The Endangered
Species Preservation Act of October 15, 1966 (P.L. 89-669, 80 Stat. 926) was
passed by the U.S. Congress. The act was strengthened in 1973.
1967
“Science
advances but slowly, with halting steps. But does not therein lie her eternal
fascination? And would we not soon tire of her if she were to reveal her
ultimate truths too easily?” Karl von Frisch (1733).
“When it is
going well, it is like a quiet conversation with Nature. One asks a question
and gets an answer, then one asks the next question and gets the next answer.
An experiment is a device to make Nature speak intelligibly. After that one has
only to listen.” George Wald, Nobel Lecture.
“To use a
metaphor, we might say that the organism is constantly playing a game with its
environment, a game where the rules are not defined, and the moves planned by
the opponent are not known.” Nikolai Aleksandrovich Bernstein (RU) (131).
Ragnar
Granit (FI-SE), Haldan Keffer Hartline (US) and George Wald (US) were awarded
the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning the
primary physiological and chemical visual processes in the eye.
Nathan Radin
(US) reviewed the definition and the use of standards and the standards
available for clinical chemists and discussed the limitations of various
so-called standards (1374).
Peter Albersheim
(US), Donald J. Nevins (US),
Patricia D. English (US), and Arthur Karr (US) designed a methodology to allow
those working on complex carbohydrates to determine accurately and easily the
neutral sugar compositions of their preparations (18).
Stuart J.
Edelstein (US) and Howard Kapnek Schachman (US) developed a method for the
simultaneous measurement of partial specific volumes and molecular weights of
proteins and other substances by sedimentation equilibrium experiments in H2O
and D2O (or D218O) solutions. Using their method, they
were able to determine the partial specific volumes and molecular weights of
several proteins including ferredoxin, ribonuclease, myoglobin, alpha-chymotrypsinogen, and bovine plasma albumin, as well as the small
molecule adenosine (484).
Arnold L.
Shapiro (US), Eladio Vinuela (ES), and Jacob V. Maizel, Jr. (US) introduced the
use of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) for improving polyacrylamide-gel
electrophoresis of proteins (1510).
Jean-Paul
Thiéry (FR) developed a way to demonstrate polysaccharides in thin sections by
electron microscopy (1667).
Edward P. Marbach (US) and Max Harry Weil (US) presented a
simplified assay for lactate and pyruvate in blood (1103).
Jacobo
Ghitis (US-IL) and Cristina Lora (US) showed that the free-folic acid activity
of milk appears to be bound to a protein. The binding seems to be highly
specific, as it is not broken by autoclaving. Synthetic PGA, but not
4-amino-10-methyl PGA, is able to bind to milk. This binding seems to be semi-specific
only, the bond being broken by autoclaving (614).
Irwin A.
Rose (US) and Jessie V.B. Warms (US) gave perhaps the first really clear
demonstration of an association of hexokinase with mitochondria (1428).
Ernesto
Bustamante (PE), Harold P. Morris (US), and Peter L. Pedersen (US) demonstrated
that the mitochondrial hexokinase is the enzyme responsible for driving
the high rates of glycolysis that occur under aerobic conditions characteristic
of rapidly growing malignant tumor cells (238). Note: Aerobic glycolysis
by malignant tumors
is utilized clinically to diagnose and monitor treatment responses of cancers by imaging uptake of 2-18F-2-deoxyglucose (a radioactive modified hexokinase substrate) with positron emission tomography (PET).
Beverly E.
Pearson Murphy (US) described a simple and highly sensitive assay for the
steroid hormone, cortisol, based on the ‘competition’ between radioactive and
non-radioactive cortisol for binding to a plasma protein, corticosteroid
binding globulin (CBG or transcortin) (1211).
Eijiro Ozawa
(JP) and Setsuro Ebashi (JP) discovered the regulation of phosphorylase b kinase activity by calcium ions (1294).
Patrick
Brennan (US) and Clinton Edward Edgerton Ballou (US) proposed that in Mycobacterium phlei guanosine
diphosphate mannose acts as the sugar donor in the conversion of
phosphatidylmyoinositol to phosphatidylmyoinositol dimannoside
(dimannophosphoinositide C), which is then acylated in a two-step process to
first yield dimannophosphoinositide B and then dimannophosphoinositide A (187; 188).
Donald R.
Mills (US), Ronald L. Peterson (US), and Solomon Spiegelman (US), using RNA
from the coliphage Qβ, performed the first extracellular Darwinian
experiments. Short RNAs that later became known as “Spiegelman's Monsters” or
simply “minimonsters” quickly took over the population. Being replicated but
not replicases, they exhaust supplies of resources such as nucleotides, running
the molecular ecosystem into the ground unless the resources are constantly
replenished. And even if they are, in a serial dilution experimental format,
these parasites will out-compete replicator species simply by having a higher
reproductive rate (1168).
Benoit
Dubertret (US), Shumo Liu (US), Qi Ouyang (US), and Albert Libchaber (US)
reported the first experimental study of the dynamics of in vitro evolution
of DNA. Starting from a random pool of DNA sequences, they used cycles of
selection (binding to the lac repressor protein), amplification, and mutations
to evolve to a unique DNA sequence, the lac operator. Statistical analysis of
the DNA sequences obtained during the cycles of evolution shows that the DNA
bases are selected at different rates. The rates of selection provide a
quantitative measure of the interaction of the DNA bases with the protein
during the complex formation (465).
Roger
Radloff (US), William Bauer (US), and Jerome R. Vinograd (US) introduced the
dye-buoyant density method, which allows the separation of covalently closed
circular DNA molecules from linear and nicked circular molecules. These dye-DNA
complexes can be separated in density gradients of the dense salt CsCl formed
in the ultracentrifuge. Plasmid DNAs are easily isolated by this method (1375).
Michael
Bazaral (US) and Donald Raymond Helinski (US) used this technique to show that
the colicine factors E1, E2, and E3 are circular DNA molecules of homogeneous
molecular weights (102).
David W.
Deamer (US), Robert Leonard (US), Annette Tardieu (FR), and Daniel Branton (US)
created artificial membranes containing various ratios of phospholipids and
proteins. Freeze-fractures of these membranes gave strong supporting evidence
that the interpretation of natural membrane structure from freeze-fractures was
correct (410-412).
E. Stephen
Garnett (GB), Victor Parsons (GB), and Norman Veall (GB) found the renal
clearance of 51Cr-E.D.T.A., as measured by the continuous-infusion
technique, to be the same as that of inulin. Its quilibration with interstitial
fluid in non-edematous patients takes less than 2 hours and there is no
detectable extrarenal uptake so that the " slope " method based on
2-4-hour plasma-activity measurements can be used as a simple routine
procedure. Results obtained in this way accord well with 24-hour endogenous
creatinine-clearance data, but the technique is not applicable to edematous
patients where equilibration is delayed. They suggested that 51Cr-E.D.T.A.
seems to be eminently suitable for clinical use (598).
Jean-Paul
Revel (AT-US) and Morris John Karnovsky (ZA-US) introduced the use of colloidal
lanthanum as an electron opaque tracer. Using this tracer, they were the first
to reveal the fine structure of gap junctions, the structural correlate of
electrophysiologically defined electrical synapses that were known to occur in
cells of excitable tissues (1404).
Luca Turin
(GB), Anne E. Warner (GB), David C. Spray (US), Andrew L. Harris (US), and
Michael V.L. Bennett (US) demonstrated that cytoplasmic pH and junctional
voltage could dynamically regulate cellular connexin
(gap junction) channels in
vertebrates (1580; 1703).
David L.
Paul (US), Nalin M. Kumar (US), and Norton B. Gilula (US) cloned the 1.5 Kb
cDNA of a 32-kD gap junction protein from the rat (978; 1314). It is now known as connexin 32 (Cx32). Later studies turned up the
sequence-unrelated innexins (invertebrate connexins), the mammalian pannexins
(a group more ancient than mammalian connexins), and the insect virus
vinnexins.
JoAnn Bergoffen (US), Steven S.
Scherer (US), Suping F. Wang (US), M. Oronzi-Scott (US), Linda Jo Bone (US),
David L. Paul (US), Ke-Lian Chen (US), Mathew W. Lensch (US), Phillip F. Chance
(US), and Kenneth H. Fischbeck (US) found that Cx32 mutations are a common cause
of the peripheral nerve disorder Charcot-Marie-Tooth
disease (126).
Connexin26
mutations account for about half of all cases of genetic deafness, Connexin46 and Connexin50 mutations cause familial cataracts.
George G.
Brownlee (GB), Frederick Sanger (GB), and Barclay George Barrell (GB)
determined the complete nucleotide sequence for 5S ribosomal RNA from Escherichia coli (211).
Berry E.
Davidson (GB), Mihaly Sajgò (HU), Harry F. Noller, Jr. (US), and J. Ieuan
Harris (GB) were the first to determine the primary structure of an
intracellular enzyme, lobster muscle glyceraldehyde
3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This enzyme consists of 333 amino acid residues (389).
Amelia
Agtarap (US), James W. Chamberlin (US), Mary Pinkerton (US), and Larry K.
Steinrauf (US) isolated and determined the structure of monensic acid, a very close relative of the anticoccidial
antibiotic monensin (11). Monensin is an ionophore produced by Streptomyces cinamonensis and has been
used successfully to combat coccoidal infections in poultry and as an additive
in cattle feed.
Herbert
Röller (US), Karl H. Dahm (DE-US), Charles C. Sweeley (US), and Barry M. Trost
(US) were the first to determine the structure of insect juvenile hormone (JH) (1426).
Albrecht
Fleckenstein (DE), Helmut Kammermeier
(DE), H.J. Döring (DE), H.J. Freund (DE), Gisa Fleckenstein-Grün (DE), and A.
Kienle (DE) reported
on the fundamental actions of drugs that antagonize or potentiate the actions
of calcium on muscle tissue. They designated some drugs as calcium antagonists. These agents inhibit transmembrane calcium
supply to the contractile system so that the calcium dependent transformation
of phosphate bond energy into mechanical work is restricted (558-560).
Albrecht Fleckenstein (DE), Helmut
A. Tritthart (DE), B. Fleckenstein (DE), A. Herbst (DE), and Gisa
Fleckenstein-Grün (DE) proved that iproveratrile (verapamil) and prenylamine reduce the flow of calcium ions into the
muscle cells (561). Verapamil
is an alkaloid found in raw opium from the Papaver
somniferum plant.
Nicholas R.
Cozzarelli (US), Malcolm L. Gefter (US), Martin Frank Gellert (US), Baldomero
M. Olivera (US), Samuel Bernard Weiss (US), Andrew Becker (US), Charles Clifton
Richardson (US), Jerard Hurwitz (US), Israel Robert Lehman (US), Norman E.
Melechen (US), Thomas M. Jovin (DE), and Arthur J. Kornberg (US) discovered DNA ligase in Escherichia coli. This enzyme can, in fact, seal single stranded
interruptions, or nicks, of the DNA double helix. It catalyzes the formation of
the internucleotide phosphate diester bond between the 5´-phosphate and
3´-hydroxyl of two adjacent nucleotides of an interrupted DNA polynucleotide
strand (359; 603; 606; 1281; 1793).
Ruth Sager
(US) and Mary G. Hamilton (US) discovered ribosomes in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas (1455).
Kinichiro
Oda (JP) and Wolfgang Karl Joklik (AT-AU-US) analyzed
early and late vaccinia mRNAs, using hybridization and density
gradient sedimentation. They found the following. 1) Early mRNAs
are smaller than late mRNAs. 2) Early mRNAs are also transcribed
late. 3) The pattern of transcription of early and late viral
mRNAs in HeLa and L cells is quite different. In HeLa cells
much more, late mRNA is made than early mRNA; in L cells the
reverse is true. 4) At 5 h after infection the mRNA molecules
in polyribosomes contain all sequences characteristic of early
mRNA; by 8 h after infection mRNA in polyribosomes is very
significantly depleted
with respect to early mRNA. 5) The large mRNA molecules
transcribed late contain sequences also present in small early
mRNA. Some small mRNA molecules are also transcribed late; they
contain at least some sequences characteristic of late mRNA.
6) Early mRNA is very stable in HeLa cells. Late mRNA is
significantly less
stable, but late mRNA that contains some early sequences
is as stable as early mRNA itself (1269).
Leonard I.
Malkin (US) and Alexander Rich (US) discovered that a portion of the newly
synthesized polypeptide chain is buried in the ribosome. They determined that
this nascent polypeptide chain contains an estimated 30-35 amino acids with an
unfolded length of 100 angstroms (1096).
Seikichi
Izawa (US) and Geoffrey Hind (US) provided evidence that two protons should be
released to the interior of the thylakoid membrane for every electron flowing
to NADP+ or to an alternate photosystem 1 acceptor (839).
William S.
Brinigar (US), David B. Knaff (US), and Jui H. Wang (US) mixed a porphyrin,
AMP, and inorganic phosphate with an imidazole group as a catalyst. Exposure of
the mixture to ultraviolet or visible light resulted in the direct synthesis of
ATP (195).
Christopher
Reid (CA), Leslie Eleazer Orgel (GB-US), and Cyril Ponnamperuma (Ceylonese-US)
found that random processes alone could form nucleotides and dinucleotides.
They have also demonstrated the formation of ATP through the ultimate agency of
solar energy (1395).
Christopher
Reid (CA), Leslie Eleazer Orgel (GB-US) synthesized sugars in
potentially prebiotic conditions (1394).
Lionel V.
Crawford (GB) and Michael J. Waring (GB) described supercoiling of polyoma
virus DNA measured by its interaction with ethidium bromide (370).
Don B.
Clewell (US) and Donald Raymond Helinski (US) described a supercoiled circular
DNA-protein complex in Escherichia coli.
They discussed its purification and induced conversion to an open circular DNA
form (315).
Rafael D.
Camerini-Otero (US) and Gary Felsenfeld (US) described a very simple model of a
DNA superhelix in which twisting and bending forces are in balance. Closed
circular DNA molecules in aqueous solution take the form of interwound
superhelices over a wide range of superhelix densities (252).
William R.
Bauer (US) reported that the DNA in all organisms is negatively supercoiled,
and to about the same degree (98). The
kinetoplastic DNA of certain unicellular eukaryotic parasites is the only known
exception.
Reiji
Okazaki (JP), Tuneko Okazaki (JP), Kiwako Sakabe (JP), Kazunori Sugimoto (JP),
Akio Sugino (JP), Norio Iwatsuki (JP) and Yasuo Imae (JP) discovered that
primers are laid down at short intervals in the synthesis of the lagging chain
of DNA. This results in the synthesis of short fragments of DNA, now called Okazaki fragments. These fragments have
been found in prokaryotes (Archaea or Bacteria), eukaryotes (Eucarya), and
viruses (1276-1279; 1617; 1618).
William C.
Summers (US) and Waclaw Szybalski (US) used bacteriophage T7 to show that only
one strand of the DNA molecule acts as a template for RNA synthesis (1622; 1623).
Mehran
Goulian (US), Arthur J. Kornberg (US), and Robert L. Sinsheimer (US) were able
to get DNA polymerase to assemble a 5000-nucleotide DNA chain with the
identical form, composition, and genetic activity as DNA from a natural virus.
This successful synthesis of the biologically active ϕX174 virus
was the first time that the nucleic acid of an active virus was synthesized in
the laboratory (659).
Jonathan R.
Warner (US), Ruy Soeiro (US), Ming C. Liau (CN), Robert Palese Perry (US),
Nessly C. Craig (US), Thoru Pederson (US), and Ajit Kumar (US)
revealed the presence of ribosomal proteins and
the assembly of nascent ribosomes in the nucleolus (364; 977; 1043; 1318; 1763).
Giovanni B.
Rossi (IT) and Charlotte Friend (US) showed that cancer cells could be induced
to differentiate by an exogenous agent, such as a virus (1437).
Joseph R.
Kates (US), Brian R. McAuslan (US), William Munyon (US), Enzo Paoletti (US),
and James T. Grace, Jr. (US) were the first to find a nucleic acid polymerase
in a virion—the DNA-dependent RNA
polymerase of vaccinia virus (907; 1208).
Adam Kepes
(FR), using Escherichia coli,
presented evidence that the lactose operon is transcribed then translated in a
linear sequential manner beginning with beta
galactosidase (Z), followed by beta
galactoside permease (Y), then beta
galactoside transacetylase (A) (937).
Hideyuki
Ogawa (JP) and Jun-ichi Tomizawa (JP) found that single-strand breaks in lambda bacteriophage DNA induced by
phosphorus 32 are rapidly repaired by a host cell mechanism (1272). They found
that simultaneous breaks in both strands are also repaired but at a much lower
efficiency (1686).
Mario Renato
Capecchi (US) found that the release of newly synthesized polypeptides from
ribosomes depends on a release factor and a terminator codon (259).
Charles
James Ingles (CA) and Gordon H. Dixon (CA) began work, which would reveal how
somatic histones are replaced by protamines in a regular series of biochemical
changes (830).
Robin E.
Monro (GB) determined that peptidyl
transferase, which catalyzes peptide synthesis, is one of the constituent
proteins of the 50S part of the ribosome in Escherichia
coli (1190).
George Alan
Robison (US), Reginald William Butcher (US), Earl Wilbur Sutherland, Jr. (US)
Joel Griffeth Hardman (US), Paul J. LaRaia (US), and Edmund H. Sonnenblick (US)
concluded that beta andrenergic effects in general are mediated by cyclic AMP (240; 996; 1417).
Jack Leonard
Strominger (US), Jean-Marie Ghuysen (BE), and Donald J. Tipper (US) divided the
bacteriolytic enzymes into three groups: 1) glycosidases such as lysozyme which catalyze hydrolysis
within the glycan chain of the peptidoglycan, 2) endopeptidases such as lysostaphin which attack the
interpeptide bridge portion of the peptidoglycan, and 3) acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidases which attack the linkage between
N-acetylmuramic acid and L-alanine (1614; 1677).
F. John
Ballard (AU), Richard W. Hansen (US), and Gilbert A. Leveille (US) demonstrated
that glyceride-glycerol is synthesized from pyruvate in adipose tissue via a
pathway that involves both pyruvate
carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate
carboxykinase (PEPCK-C) and that the pathway proceeds via a symmetrical
4-carbon intermediate. Furthermore, they found that the conversion of pyruvate
to glyceride-glycerol via this pathway increases when the animal is fasted, due
in part to the induction of PEPCK-C activity that occurs in adipose tissue.
They proposed that this pathway, later termed glyceroneogenesis (i.e. the de novo synthesis of glyceride-glycerol
from precursors other than glycerol or glucose) is involved in the
re-esterification of fatty acid to triglyceride in adipose tissue during
fasting (74).
Erela Gorin
(IL), Z. Tal-Or (IL), and Eleazar Shafrir
(IL) coined the term glyceroneogenesis
to name the pathway described above (648).
Lea Reshef (IL), Richard W. Hanson (US), and F. John Ballard (AU)
proposed that the glyceroneogenesis
pathway is involved in the
re-esterification of fatty acid to triacylglycerol in adipose
tissue during fasting and that glyceroneogenesis from pyruvate is
the source of the 3-phosphoglycerol required for triacylglycerol
synthesis (1402; 1403). Later it
became apparent that glyceroneogenesis is involved in the triglyceride-fatty
acid cycle. This cycle is a critical factor in regulating the amount of fatty
acid that is re-esterified back to triglyceride during fasting in all mammals
(and probably all vertebrates) and thus has a potential role in type 2
diabetes.
Lawrence I.
Gilbert (US) reviewed the field of insect lipids up to 1966 and may be in part
responsible for the logarithmic increase in the number of studies on insect
lipid metabolism and natural products chemistry over the ensuing decade (621).
Håkan
Björndal (SE), Bingt Lindberg (SE), and Sigfrid Svensson (SE)
investigated the mass spectrometry of partially methylated alditol acetates.
They demonstrated that these substances are readily identified from their mass
spectra. Analysis of mixtures of such derivatives by gas chromatography-mass
spectrometry has become a standard method in structural studies of complex
carbohydrates (145).
John H.
Exton (NZ) and Charles Rawlinson Park (US) studied the basic process of
gluconeogenesis (i.e. the conversion of lactate, pyruvate, glycerol, alanine,
and a mixture of amino acids to glucose) and demonstrated that physiological
increases in these substrates alone led to increased glucose production by the
liver, indicating the importance of substrate supply in the regulation of
gluconeogenesis. Comparison of the rates of gluconeogenesis from lactate,
pyruvate, fructose, and dihydroxyacetone suggested that the rate-limiting step
for lactate gluconeogenesis was located between pyruvate and triose phosphate
in the gluconeogenic pathway. Measurements of the conversion of [14C] pyruvate
to glucose and CO2 were used in a mathematical analysis to determine the flow
of isotope from this substrate into the gluconeogenic pathway and the Krebs
cycle (524).
John H.
Exton (NZ) and Charles Rawlinson Park (US) found that physiological
concentrations of glucagon were effective in stimulating gluconeogenesis.
Exogenous cyclic AMP stimulated gluconeogenesis, consistent with this being the
mediator of the effect of glucagon. Studies of gluconeogenesis from fructose
indicated that glucagon/cyclic AMP stimulated the pathway somewhere between
pyruvate and phosphoenolpyruvate in the gluconeogenic pathway (525).
John A.
Rupley (US) discovered that lysozyme
breaks the bond between carbon atom 1 of N-acetylmuramic acid and the oxygen
attached to carbon 4 of N-acetylglucosamine in the glycosidic link (1447).
Ronald John
Gibbons (US) and Suzanne B. Banghart (US) reported that three enzymes at the
bacterial surface deal in particular ways with the common sugar sucrose, which
is composed of one molecule of glucose and one of fructose. The enzyme invertase splits the sucrose into its
two components, both of which are released to become sources of energy for the
cell. A second enzyme, glucosyltransferase,
splits the sucrose and releases fructose as a nutrient but polymerizes the
glucose into a long polysaccharide called a glucan, which is insoluble in
water. A third enzyme, fructosyltransferase,
builds the fructose into a similar but water-soluble polysaccharide and
liberates glucose. The synthesis of extracellular dextrans by bacteria on the
teeth contributes to the formation of dental plaque and encourages dental
caries (618).
Andrew M.
Wright (GB), Marcelo Alberto Dankert (AR), Paul V. Fennessey (US) and Phillips
W. Robbins (US) found that lipid intermediates derived from a polyprenol,
undecaprenol, are involved in the biosynthesis of Salmonella lipopolysaccharide (1842).
Yasushi Higashi
(JP), Jack Leonard Strominger (US), and Charles C. Sweeley (US) found the same
undecaprenol lipid intermediate mechanism in the synthesis of bacterial
peptidoglycan (763). Note: Dolichol, a related intermediate, is involved in the
glycosylation of some animal proteins.
Thomas S.
Reese (US) and Morris John Karnovsky (US) determined that the endothelial cells
in the brain vasculature, and more precisely the junctions between these cells,
form the cellular correlate for the so-called blood–brain barrier. Unlike cell
junctions found in other endothelia, the cell junctions of endothelial cells in
the brain appeared to be extensive and were surmised to form an unbroken belt
between cells (903; 1393).
George E.
Moore (US, Robert E. Gerner (US), and H. Addison Franklin (US) established continuous
permanent normal lymphocyte cell lines derived from the peripheral blood which
many ‘basic’ scientists said couldn’t be done and was a malignant
transformation (1193).
Gary Guy
Borisy (US-GB) and Edwin W. Taylor (US) isolated a colchicine-binding activity
from extracts of tissue culture cells (164).
Gary G.
Boisy (US-GB) and Edwin W. Taylor (US) found that when the colchicine-binding
activity was extracted under low salt conditions that led to the disappearance
of microtubules. They concluded that the binding site of colchicine is the
subunit protein of microtubules (165).
Hideo Mohri
(JP) named this subunit protein of microtubules tubulin (1187).
Fernando L.
Renaud (US), Arthur J. Rowe (GB), and Ian Robert Gibbons (US) discovered that
the microtubules consist of two closely related proteins (1399).
Helio Gelli
Pereira (BR), Bela Tumova (CZ), and Robert G. Webster (NZ-US) described the
recombination of avian and human influenza viruses involved in the generation
of pandemic influenza (1325).
William
Graeme Laver (AU) and Robert G. Webster (NZ-US) formulated the concepts
of antigenic drift and
antigenic shift as well as theories of the origin of influenza
virus strains responsible for pandemics that postulated the
introduction of genome segments from influenza virus strains
circulating in pelagic birds, horses, pigs, and chickens into
influenza strains circulating in human populations (1001; 1002; 1775).
Robert G. Webster (NZ-US), William Graeme Laver (AU), Bela Tumova
(CZ) Judith R. Schäfer (US), Yoshihiro Kawaoka (US), William J. Bean (US),
Jochen Süss (DE), Dennis Senne (US), and Robert G. Webster (NZ-US) found that
serum from patients who had survived the 1957 influenza pandemic reacted with
avian influenza viruses (1477; 1776). Later
genetic analyses showed that the “Asian flu” virus had indeed received 3 of its
8 gene segments from birds.
Virginia S. Hinshaw (US), William J. Bean (US), Robert G. Webster
(NZ-US), and G. Sriram (US) hypothesized that something like
genetic reassortment (which had not yet been discovered) occurred to cause the
big changes that appeared among human influenza viruses, driving pandemics (772).
Kennedy F. Shortridge (AU) and Charles H. Stuart-Harris (AU)
hypothesized that Southern China is an epicenter for the emergence of pandemic
influenza viruses, the seeds for which had been germinating for 4,500 years
when it was believed the duck was first domesticated in that region (1524).
Li L. Shu (CN), Yi P. Lin (CN),
Stephen M. Wright (US), Kennedy F. Shortridge (AU) and Robert G. Webster
(NZ-US) found evidence that interspecies transmission of influenza virus from
humans to pigs has happened multiple times in pigs in Southern China (1526).
Michael Gregor (US) notes that molecular and genetic studies point
to the duck as the silent intestinal carrier of avian influenza viruses raised
in close proximity to habitation. Large-scale chicken production in Southern
China introduces stressed and crowded chickens into this avian influenza
milieu. Gregor highlights the role of man in creating the environment conducive
to the spread of the avian influenza virus from duck to chickens to man (671).
Note: Viruses
carrying the H1N1, H2N2 and H3N2 antigen combinations were responsible for the
Spanish flu of 1918, the Asian flu in 1957 and Hong Kong flu in 1968,
respectively (1777).
Jack L. Pate
(US) and Erling J. Ordal (US) discovered the mechanism of gliding motility in
Cytophaga (1312).
Lewis G.
Tilney (US) and Keith R. Porter (US) presented a model of their interpretation
of how in the heliozoan Actinosphaerium
nucleofilum a 220-A microtubule from the axopodium transforms into a 340-A
tubule and what this means in terms of the substructure of the untreated
microtubules (1676).
Lewis G.
Tilney (US) and John R. Gibbins (US) found
evidence that microtubule polymerization is important for the development and
maintenance of cell shape (1675).
Thomas D.
Brock (US) and Hudson Freeze (US) studied microorganisms from hot springs in
Yellowstone National Park, where they observed growth of fungi at temperatures
as high as 60°C, of cyanobacteria at 75°C, and bacteria at >90°C. This
included a description of the bacterium Thermus
aquaticus, which grows at an optimum temperature of 75°C (199-201). These
papers stimulated renewed interest in extremophiles. Thermus aquaticus produces a heat stable DNA polymerase that became an indispensable tool in the polymerase
chain reaction (PCR).
Marvin P.
Bryant (US), Elizabeth A. Wolin (US), Meyer J. Wolin (US), and Ralph Stoner
Wolfe (US), while studying the bacterial oxidation of ethanol, found two
bacterial species acting in a symbiotic relationship, one converting the
ethanol to hydrogen and acetate, the other utilizing the hydrogen to reduce
carbon dioxide to methane. Excess hydrogen inhibits the first organism (216). This helps
explain the interactions of anaerobes during the fermentation of complex
organic compounds. This phenomenon is now known to be of great importance in
anaerobic degradation in the rumen. It is also known to be even more importance
in methanogenic ecosystems where more complete anaerobic degradation occurs,
e.g., where products such as volatile and longer-chain fatty acids are largely
converted to methane and carbon dioxide.
John
Woodland Hastings (US) and Quentin Howieson Gibson (GB-US) found that Vibrio fischeri, a luminous species of
bacterium, produces a diffusible compound, called an autoinducer, which
accumulates in the medium during growth. This autoinducer allows the bacterium
to sense its elevated density. The concept is analogous to the production of
pheromones in higher organisms (726).
Roger M.
Spanswick (GB-US) and John W. Costerton (GB) demonstrated that many plant cells
are directly connected by way of their cytoplasm
(1574).
David
Koffler (US), Peter H. Schur (US), and Henry George Kunkel (US) eluted anti-DNA
and several other antinuclear antibodies from glomeruli of kidneys showing
systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE) nephritis. Deposits of DNA antigen
associated with immunoglobulin and complement were observed. These results
suggest a pathogenic role for DNA-anti-DNA immune complexes (961).
George
Bellamy Mackaness (US), and Robert Vincent Blanden (AU) discovered that
macrophages must be activated before they could digest the bacteria causing
brucellosis (1086).
Phil Filner
(US) and Joe E. Varner (US) were the first in plant biology to employ density
labelling technology in protein synthesis studies and secondly, they provided
the first evidence of complete synthesis of hormone-induced enzymes in plant
tissues (540).
John V.
Jacobsen (AU) and Joe E. Varner (US) reported that isolated aleurone layers of
barley secreted protease in response to gibberellic acid. Density labelling
studies showed that the protease arose by new synthesis (842).
Theodor Otto
Diener (US) and William B. Raymer (US) proposed that the disease of plants
called spindle-tuber is caused by an
agent, which is a naked RNA molecule (439). This
represents the discovery and naming of viroids.
Bernard D.
Stollar (US), Theodor Otto Diener (US), Roger H. Lawson (US), Heinz L. Sanger
(DE), Gunther Klotz (Heinz L. Sanger), Detlev Riesner (DE), Hans J. Gross (DE),
and Albrecht K. Kleinschmidt (DE) were among the first to describe infectious
agents they called viroids. These were described as consisting only of
infectious nucleic acid (437-439; 1466; 1610).
Theodor Otto
Diener (US) and Roger H. Lawson (US) found that the etiologic agent of chrysanthemum
stunt is a viroid (438).
John W.
Randles (AU), Erlinda P. Rillo (PH), and Theodor Otto Diener (US) found
evidence that the etiological agent of cadang-cadang
disease of coconuts is a viroid (1385).
William H.
Northway, Jr. (US), Robert C. Rosan (US), and David Y. Porter (US) were the
first to describe a new syndrome of acute, subacute, and chronic lung disease
in the newborn infant with severe respiratory
distress syndrome (RDS). This syndrome was rapidly recognized as occurring
throughout the world when newborn infants with respiratory difficulty were
artificially ventilated with supplemental oxygen. It was named bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (1254).
Akio
Takeuchi (US) used the electron microscope to demonstrate that salmonellae
invade epithelial cells of the guinea pig intestine by an endocytic process (1643).
Theo M.
Konijn (NL), J.G.C. van de Meene (NL), John Tyler Bonner (US), David S. Barkley
(US), and Ying Ying Chang (US) discovered that bacterial 3´, 5´ cyclic AMP
causes cellular slime molds to aggregate (965; 966).
Shinya Inoué
(US) and Hidemi Sato (JP) demonstrated that microtubules of the spindle
apparatus are in dynamic equilibrium with a subunit pool (833).
Ian K.
Buckley (AU) and Keith R. Porter (US), using electron microscopy of cultured
rat embryo fibroblasts showed that cytoplasmic filaments and microtubules are
intimately associated with components known to be highly motile in the living
cells. Seemingly immobile cortical filament bundles appear to be involved in
the stabilization of cellular attachment sites (219).
Charles
Allen Thomas, Jr. (US) proved that the DNA of T-even phages exists in a
circular form (1668).
Moshe Shilo
(US) discovered myxobacteria, which are specific in their ability to lyse
cyanobacteria) (1517).
A. Erling
Porsild (CA), C. Richard Harrington (CA) and Gerry A. Mulligan (CA) germinated
artic lupine (Lupinus
arcticus) seeds
from the Yukon, which were known to be 10,000 years old (1355).
The previous record was for seeds of the sacred lotus (Nelumbium nuciferum) that were 2,000
years old.
Margaret B.
Davis (US) developed a method for calculating absolute rates of pollen
deposition (396).
Theodore
Thomas Puck (US) and Fa-ten Kao (US) designed a very successful in vitro cell culture system
specifically to detect auxotrophic mutants in animal cells (1368).
James H.
Renwick (GB) and David Bolling (US) introduced a computer program for encoding,
analyzing, and storing human genetic linkage data (1400).
Vincent M.
Sarich (US) and Allan C. Wilson (NZ-US) shook the human family tree when they
claimed, based on immunological comparisons of serum albumens, that humans,
chimpanzees, and gorillas had a common ancestor five million years ago (1471).
Vincent M.
Sarich (US), Allan C. Wilson (NZ-US), Jack Lester King (US), Thomas H. Jukes
(US), Richard Earl Dickerson (US), Walter Monroe Fitch (US), Richard Holmquist
(US), Tomoko Ohta (JP), and Motoo Kimura (JP) supported the generalization that
the rate of amino acid substitution within a given protein seems relatively
constant over evolutionary time and that many of the amino acid changes
occurring during the evolution of a protein are selectively unimportant ones
which have been fixed by random process (436; 555; 879; 880; 947; 1216; 1275; 1471; 1819). This is
often referred to as non-Darwinian evolution or the molecular clock. Emile Zuckerkandl (US) introduced the phrase molecular evolutionary clock (1874).
Mary Weiss
(US) and Howard Green (US) produced man-mouse hybrid cells, which selectively
eliminated human chromosomes. This asymmetric chromosome loss produced hybrid
cells with partial human chromosome complements. By correlating the retention
or loss of a specific human marker with the retention or loss of a particular
chromosome they were able to assign the gene coding for the marker to an
identifiable human chromosome. The gene locus coding for thymidine kinase was thus located to chromosome 17 (1790).
Yoji Doi
(JP), Michiaki Teranaka (JP), Kiyoshi Yora (JP), and Hidefumi Asuyama (JP)
found mycoplasma- or phytoplasma-like microorganisms in the phloem elements of
plants infected with mulberry dwarf, potato witches' broom, aster yellows, or
Paulownia witches' broom. They observed pleomorphic bodies susceptible to
tetracyclines leading them to a phytoplasma hypothesis in the cause of disease (448). These are Mollicutes, a class of bacteria
distinguished by the absence of a cell wall.
Robert E.
Davis (US), Joseph F. Worley (US), Robert F. Whitcomb (US), Takashi Ishijima
(JP), and Russell L. Steere (US) discovered spiroplasma while exploring the
cause of corn stunt disease. These are helical Mollicutes exhibiting a twisting
motion (398; 399).
Olive S.
Pettengill (US) and George D. Sorenson (US) succeeded in growing myeloma cells
in suspension culture (1336).
Henry
Bennet-Clark (GB), Eric C.A. Lucey (GB), R.H.J. Brown (GB), Miriam Rothschild
(GB), Yosef Schlein (IL), Kim Parker (GB), A. Carolyn Neville (GB), Steve
Sternberg (IL), and William James Heitler (GB) showed that insects jump with a
three-step process: first, insects lock their joints; second, they contract
their muscles slowly to store energy in cuticular ‘springs’; and third, insects
unlock their joints, causing the recoil of the spring to catapult the insect
into the air (121; 209; 737; 1439).
Henry
Bennet-Clark (GB) solved the problem of energy storage in the jump of the
locust. Some of the energy is stored in the cuticular springs and some in the
apodemes (tendon-like structures). Bennet-Clark's careful calculation of energy
budgets followed by a synthetic kinetic model provided an excellent example of
how biomechanical hypotheses should be tested (120). Many arthropods would be found
to use similar structures whenever a behavior required large amounts of power.
Gregory P.
Sutton (GB) and Malcolm Burrows (GB) found that mathematical models using the
whole leg as a lever arm system to transmit the forces through the tarsus
(Bennet-Clark’s hypothesis) did produce movements that were consistent with the
high-speed movies of the action. Thus, Henry Bennet-Clark’s hypothesis was
correct (1631). No one knows how fleas lock
their springs in place and then release them, and no one knows how fleas snap
their two rear hindmost legs at the same time.
Adolf
Friedrich Johann Butenandt (DE), Peter Karlson (DE), Helmut Hofmeister (DE),
Hans Hummel (DE), Peter Hocks (DE), and Gerhard Spiteller (DE) isolated and
crystallized the insect prothoracic gland hormone, which Karlson named ecdysone, from the butterfly Bombyx (241; 242; 902).
Jules
Alphonse Hoffmann (LU-FR), Pierre Joly (FR), and Aimé Porte (FR), by using a
combination of experimental biology (namely severe bleeding) and
histology/ultrastructural studies, eventually identified a well-organised
hemopoietic tissue in the vicinity of the dorsal blood vessel in the abdomens
of both larval and adult grasshoppers. Ultrastructural analysis of the
grasshopper hemopoietic tissue revealed some unexpected similarities with
hemopoiesis in mammals (781-783). Note:
Grasshoppers which had their hemopoietic tissue selectively subjected to X-ray
treatment rapidly succumbed to septicemia by opportunistic microbes; sham
irradiated grasshoppers did not show a similar phenotype. This result
underlined the crucial role of hemopoiesis in antimicrobial defences, namely
through the massive production of phagocytes. X-ray treatment also upset the
endocrine control of moulting. In short, grasshopper larvae undergo five cycles
of moulting: it was understood that these cycles were dependent on a gland,
referred to as prothoracic gland, and that this gland released the moulting
hormone ecdysone (ecdysis meaning moult in Greek) at a precise
moment within each larval instar (referred to as a “critical period”).
Hans
G. Boman (SE), Ingrid Nilsson (SE), and Bertil Rasmuson (SE) discovered an
inducible and highly potent antimicrobial immune response in Drosophila (173).
Dan
Hultmark (SE), Hakan Steiner (SE), Torgny Rasmuson (SE), and Hans G. Boman (SE)
purified three inducible bacteriolytic proteins, designated P7, P9A and P9B,
from the hemolymph of immunized pupae of the giant silk moth Hyalophora cecropia. P7 is a lysozyme
while both forms of protein P9 clearly differ from the lysozyme class of
enzymes and may represent a new type of bacteriolytic protein (820).
Ingrid
Faye (SE) and Gerard R. Wyatt (CA) demonstrated in vitro expression of
immune proteins in the Hyalophora cecropia fat body, today
considered the main antimicrobial producing organ (531).
Hakan
Steiner (SE), Dan Hultmark (SE), Ake Engström (SE), Hans Bennich (SE), and Hans
Boman (SE) identified the inducible antimicrobial peptides cecropin A and cecropin
B from challenged pupae of the moth Hyalophora cecropia (1593).
Jaehag
Lee (SE), Thomas Edlund (SE), Tor Ny (SE), Ingrid Faye (SE), and Hans G. Boman
(SE) identified attacin (P5) and P4
as the most strongly induced proteins upon bacterial challenge (1010).
Jean-Luc Dimarcq
(FR), Elisabeth Keppi (FR), Bryan Dunbar (GB), Jean Lambert (FR), Jean-Marc Reichhart
(FR), Danièle Hoffmann (FR), Susan M. Rankine (GB), John E. Fothergill (GB), and
Jules Alphonse Hoffmann (LU-FR) purified and characterized a family of novel
inducible antibacterial proteins from immunized larvae of the dipteran Phormia
terranovae and the complete amino-acid sequence of a predominant member, diptericin
A (440).
Anette
Carlsson (SE), Ake Engström (SE), Erkki Tapio Palva (SE), and Hans Bennich (SE)
showed that attacin-induced
alteration in the structure and the permeability of the outer membrane of Escherichia coli is associated with a
specific inhibition of the synthesis of several outer membrane proteins,
including OmpC, OmpF, OmpA, and LamB. The inhibition is expressed as a
reduction in the steady-state mRNA levels and is at least in part the results
of a block in transcription of the corresponding genes (261).
Note: Attacin was a name given to antimicrobial proteins.
Sophia
K. Ekengren (SE) and Dan Hultmark (SE) found that the P9 antimicrobial
polypeptides (AMPs), now called cecropins,
were antifungal in Drosophila (503).
Michael
Zasloff (US) isolated and characterized one of the first vertebrate AMPs from
the African clawed frog, Xenopus levis. It was designated magainin (meaning ‘shield’ in Hebrew),
and was expressed in tandem in one transcript then cleaved after translation (1867).
Jong-Youn
Lee (SE), Anita Boman (SE), C.X. Sun (SE), Mats Andersson (SE), Hans Jörnvall
(SE), Victor Mutt (SE), and Hans G. Boman (SE) isolated hormonal peptides from
pig intestine. Upon sequencing, the first hormonal peptide turned out to be a
type of antimicrobial polypeptides (AMP) called a cecropin, later named cecropin
P1 (1011).
Shao
Cong Sun (SE), Ingrid Lindström (SE), Hans G. Boman (SE), Ingrid Faye (SE), and
Otto Schmidt (SE), upon sequencing of the P4 cDNA, revealed the first
immunoglobulin superfamily protein that was part of an immune response in
insects and was designated hemolin (1626).
Note: Ascaris suum, a
parasitic nematode that resides in the pig intestine, was later discovered to
be the source of the pig's cecropin (35).
Birgitta
Agerberth (SE), Hans Gunne (SE), Jacob Odeberg (SE), Per Kogner (SE), Hans G.
Boman (SE), Jack B. Cowland (SE), Anders H. Johnsen (SE), Niels Borregaard
(SE), James W. Larrick (US), Michimasa Hirata (US), Robert F. Balint (US),
Jaehag Lee (US), Jian Zhong (US), and Susan C. Wright (US) discovered LL-37,
the first human antimicrobial polypeptide (AMP), cathelicidin (10; 355; 998).
Note: Peptides that in their preform
are bound to cathelin were classified
as cathelicidins.
Katrin
Pütsep (SE), Göran Carlsson (SE), Hans G. Boman (SE), and Mats Andersson (SE)
found that morbus Kostmann patients
are deficient of LL37 in saliva and plasma, confirming the vital importance of
this antimicrobial polypeptide (AMP) in humans (1369).
Bruno
Lemaitre (FR), Emmanuelle Nicolas (FR), Lydia Michaut (FR), Jean-Marc Reichhart
(FR), and Jules Alphonse Hoffmann (FR) combined genetic, biochemical, and
molecular approaches to reveal that the Toll
signaling pathway, originally recognized to regulate dorsoventral patterning in
Drosophila embryos by activating an
NF-κB–like Rel protein, was also responsible for transcriptional
activation of the gene that encodes Drosomysin,
an antifungal peptide (1024).
Ruslan
Medzhitov (RU-US), Paula Preston-Hurlburt (US), and Charles Alderson Janeway,
Jr. (US) showed that a human homologue of the Drosophila Toll protein
signals activation of adaptive immunity (1141).
Note:
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a class of proteins that
play a key role in the innate immune system. They are single,
membrane-spanning, non-catalytic receptors usually expressed on sentinel cells
such as macrophages and dendritic cells, that recognize structurally conserved
molecules derived from microbes. Once these microbes have reached physical
barriers such as the skin or intestinal tract mucosa, they are recognized by
TLRs, which activate immune cell responses.
Alexander
Poltorak (US), Xiaolong He (US), Irina Smirnova (US), Mu-Ya Liu (US),
Christophe Van Huffel (US), Xin Du (US), Dale Birdwell (US), Erica Alejos (US),
Maria Silva (US), Chris Galanos (DE), Marina Freudenberg (DE), Paola
Ricciardi-Castagnoli (IT), Betsy Layton (US), and Bruce Alan Beutler (US) found
that the mammalian Tlr4 protein has been adapted primarily to subserve the
recognition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and presumably transduces the LPS
signal across the plasma membrane. Destructive mutations of Tlr4 predispose to
the development of gram-negative sepsis, leaving most aspects of immune
function intact (1353).
Peck
Y. Ong (US),Takaaki Ohtake (US), Corinne Brandt (US), Ian Strickland (US), Mark
Boguniewicz (US), Tomas Ganz (US), Richard L. Gallo (US), and Donald Y.M. Leung
(US) discovered that a deficiency in the expression of antimicrobial peptides
may account for the susceptibility of patients with atopic dermatitis to skin infection with S. aureus (1283).
Wilbur H.
Sawyer (US) determined that the volume of urine formed in mammals is regulated
primarily through the antidiuretic hormone (ADH), arginine vasopressin, and
lysine vasopressin (1476).
Juha P.
Kokko (US) and C. Craig Tisher (US) found that in mammals the effect of ADH is
predominantly upon the water permeability of the collecting duct of the
nephrons (963).
Klaus Thurau
(DE), Jürgen Schnermann (DE), Wolfram Nagel (DE), Michael Horster (DE), and
Michael Wahl (DE) demonstrated the operation of a sodium-sensitive feedback
mechanism at the level of the juxtaglomerular apparatus in each single nephron
unit (1672). They hypothesized that the
physiological meaning of this mechanism may be to adjust glomerular filtration
rate, and thereby tubular sodium load, to the reabsorptive capacity of the
nephrons for sodium chloride; it may therefore be an intrarenal
sodium-conserving mechanism.
Adrian I.
Katz (US) and Franklin H. Epstein (US) observed selective and concordant
changes in sodium-potassium-adenosine
triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) activity of renal microsomes when tubular
sodium reabsorption was chronically increased or diminished by various
experimental maneuvers. These adaptive responses supported the concept that the
enzyme plays a physiologic role in active sodium transport by the kidney (908).
Irving L.
Weisman (US) demonstrated that thymocytes emigrate from the thymus to the
"T cell domains" within peripheral lymphoid organs (1786).
Nicholas
Avrion Mitchison (GB) was among the first to suggest that a normal immune
response requires co-operation of various types of lymphocytes (1176).
Donald
Mosier (US) was the first to show that lymphocytes must interact with
nonlymphoid cells to be able to generate an antibody response (1202).
Nicholas
Avrion Mitchison (GB), Klaus Rajewsky (DE-US), and Robert B. Taylor (US)
proposed that a cell bound immunoglobulin of T cells is crucial in antibody
production. This immunoglobulin serves as an antigen receptor, which through
cell-cell interaction presents antigenic determinants to cells capable of
antibody production (1177).
Beatrice
Mintz (US) and Willys K. Silvers (US) found that mice experimentally derived
from pairs of conjoined, undifferentiated, cleavage-stage embryos of different
histocompatibility genotypes can retain cells of each strain, which still
produce their characteristic antigenic products. The animals are permanently
tolerant of cells of both original types, remain free of runt disease, and
display a normal and specific immune response to introduction of a foreign
antigen. Absence of autoimmunity in development of ordinary animals is
explainable by the "intrinsic" kind of tolerance found here (1171).
Herman N.
Eisen (US), J. Russell Little (US), C. Kirk Osterland (CA), Ernest S. Simms
(US), and Michael Potter (US) observed that human and murine myeloma proteins
are, in fact, monoclonal antibodies (500; 501).
Michael G.
Davey (CA) and Ernst F. Lüscher (CH) found that thrombin is the most potent
stimulator of platelet aggregation (386).
John Allen
Clements (US), Don F. Tierney (US), Harold J. Trahan (US), and Jean Nellenbogen
(US) defined and described the role of pulmonary surfactant (313; 314; 1673).
Elwood
Vernon Jensen (US), Eugene R. de Sombre (US), Daniel J. Hurst (US), Takugi
Kawashima (JP), Peter Wilhelm Jungblut (DE), Taiga Suzuki (JP), Walter Erich
Stumpf (US), Masahiro Numata (JP), Sylvia Smith (US), Giovanni A. Puca (IT),
Suresh Mohla (US), and Peter I. Brecher (US) performed pioneering studies of
the mode of action of estrogenic hormones. They noticed that most tissues —
skeletal muscle, kidneys and liver, for example — started expelling the
labelled hormone within 15 minutes. In contrast, tissues known to respond to
the hormone — those of the reproductive tract — held onto it tightly.
Furthermore, the hormone showed up in the nuclei of cells, where genes reside.
Something there was apparently grabbing the estradiol (406-408; 852-860).
David Toft
(US) and Jack Gorski (US) reported the discovery of the key induced protein (E2-IP)
for estrogen stimulation (1682).
Nachum
A. Reiss (IL) and Alvin M. Kaye (IL) purified and identified E2-IP as an
isozyme of creatine kinase. E2-IP was to become the standard biochemical
marker of “early” rat endometrial responses to estrogen (1397).
Jeffrey C.
Hansen (US) and Jack Gorski (US) noted that the dna-associated receptor
underwent fundamental changes in conformation when it bound estrogen and
anti-estrogens, such as tamoxifen (707).
Michael
Fritsch (US), Cynthia M. Leary (US), J. David Furlow (US), Helga Ahrens (US),
Timothy J. Schuh (US), Gerald C. Mueller (US), and Jack Gorski (US) showed this
change, characterized by the loss of hydrophobic surface of the steroid-binding
domain led to “tighter” binding to chromatin and the interactions with the
transcriptional machinery (591). See, Elwood Vernon Jensen in Part 3b
Jimmy D. Neill (US), Elof D.B. Johansson (SE),
and Ernst Knobil (US) were the first to describe the time course of
progesterone during the ovarian cycle of any species (the rhesus monkey, Macaca mulatta) (1223; 1224).
Jimmy D.
Neill (US), Elof D.B. Johansson (SE), J.K. Datta (US), and Ernst Knobil (US)
established unequivocally and for the first time the relationship between the
secretion of progesterone and luteotrophic hormone (LH). At that time,
progesterone was believed to be the ovarian stimulus for the increased LH
secretion that results in ovulation. They showed that progesterone secretion
increased only after the increase in plasma LH and hence was not the ovarian
signal. They also established that the regression of the corpus luteum —as signified by a decrease in plasma progesterone
levels —was not associated with changes in the secretion of its LH (1222).
Bernard Katz
(RU-GB) and Ricardo Miledi (GB) proposed that the arrival of an action
potential at the presynaptic terminal of the myoneural junction causes calcium
influx that facilitates the binding of acetylcholine (ACh) packets to the
presynaptic membrane which leads to the subsequent exocytotic release of
multimolecular packets from the motor neuron terminal into the synaptic cleft.
Each small packet of ACh produces a very brief signal in the muscle fiber (909-916; 1159).
Vincent Paul
Dole (US) and Marie E. Nyswander (US) postulated the physiological basis of
narcotic addiction (449; 452).
David J.
Randall (CA), Lynwood S. Smith (CA), J. Roland Brett (CA), George F. Holeton
(CA-GB), E. Don Stevens (CA), and Gordon R. Bell (CA) performed the first
mechanistic studies of gas exchange in intact, unanesthetized, unrestrained but
confined fish; paving the way for direct physiological measurements in fish in
vivo (193; 789; 790; 1383; 1384; 1562; 1604; 1605).
F. Paul
Alepa (US), R. Rodney Howell (US), James R. Klinenberg (US), and Jarvis Edwin
Seegmiller (US) found that the increased rate of purine synthesis in patients
with glycogen storage disease, Type 1
is attributed to the deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase (20).
Mauricio B.
Rosenbaum (AG) Marcelo V. Elizari (AG), and Julio O. Lazarri (AG) described
intraventricular conduction disorders they called hemiblocks. They subdivided
these blocks within Tawara branches into: unifascicular, bifascicular, and
trifascicular blocks (1432; 1433).
Clarence
Merskey (US), Alan J. Johnson (US), George J. Kleiner (US), and Herbert Wohl
(US) demonstrated
that nearly all cases of defibrination
syndrome are associated with evidence of intravascular coagulation.
Fibrinolysis is probably a secondary phenomenon as it cannot be shown by
circulating plasmin or activator in the great majority of cases. Heparin
therapy is occasionally beneficial (1147).
Joseph M. Hill (US), Joseph Roberts
(US), Ellen Loeb (US), Amanullah Khan (US), Ayten MacLellan (US), and Robert W.
Hill (US) reported that enzyme therapy directed at depletion of an amino acid,
asparagine, indispensable for tumor cell growth but not required by normal
tissues, offers a new and promising approach to the problem of treatment of
leukemia and disseminated cancer. Therapy with the enzyme L-asparaginase in
three cases of acute lymphatic leukemia resulted in measurable improvement in
two advanced cases. Furthermore, a variety of human malignant diseases
including acute lymphatic leukemia and acute and chronic granulocytic leukemia
have been shown to be asparagine-dependent by this test (765).
Dame Cicely
Saunders (GB) and her colleagues, in 1967, opened St. Christopher’s Hospice in
London, the world’s first modern hospice, where they combined clinical care,
teaching, and research, seeking to achieve a “middle way” between too much and
too little treatment (1474).
William W.
Rodman (US), Ralph C. Williams, Jr. (US), Paul J. Bilka (US), and Hans Joachim
Müller-Eberhard (DE-US-DE) proved that rheumatoid factor is a 19S (IgM) antibody
directed against 7S (IgG) gamma globulin (1420).
Donald S.
Waldorf (US), Harley A. Haynes (US), Peter L. Winters (US) and Eugene J. van
Scott (US) introduced the use of nitrogen mustard as a topical chemotherapy in
the treatment of mycosis fungoides (T cell lymphoma) (1726; 1744).
Johannes
Joseph van Rood (NL) proposed the creation of the first international organ
exchange organization (1725).
Charles David Kelman (US) transformed cataract surgery by devising a relatively
noninvasive procedure for removing a flawed lens; he called it
phaco-emulsification and aspiration. Kelman replaced a high-risk operation that
required a lengthy hospital stay with a 10-minute outpatient procedure. This
procedure is now the most frequently performed surgery in many countries of the
western world. It aids about three million people annually in the United States
and approximately the same number in Western Europe — figures that are
increasing as the population ages. Kelman's innovation of removing a relatively
large piece of tissue through a tiny incision paved the way toward similar
'keyhole' surgeries on many other parts of the body (929; 930). See: Harold Ridley, 1951.
Folkert O.
Belzer (US), B. Sterry Ashby (US), J. Engelbert Dunphy (US), Paul F. Gulyassy
(US), and Malcolm Powell (US) discovered that the successful preservation of
cadaver organs is aided by the development of a cold hypothermic solution that
preserves organs before transplantation (117; 118).
John E.
Craighead (US), James B. Hanshaw (US), and Charles B. Carpenter (US) presented
data strongly suggesting that active cytomegalovirus infection in renal graft
recipients can result either from the activation of "latent" virus or
from exposure to the virus after transplantation. The occurrence of the
infection did not correlate with a well-defined clinical syndrome even though
generalized cytomegalic inclusion disease was found in some patients at autopsy
(365).
Thomas
Killip, II (US) and John T. Kimball (US) proved the importance of the
specialized care administered in the coronary care unit (CCU) with their study
of the treatment of myocardial infarction in a coronary care unit. Their
two-year experience tracked 250 patients (941).
Bernard Lown
(LT-US) reported on sinus node dysfunction. He referred to it as “sick sinus
syndrome” (1071).
Edward
Osborne Wilson (US) and Robert Helmer MacArthur (CA-US) authored The Theory of Island Biogeography, a
study of islands that examines the relation between island size, the number of
species contained, and their evolutionary balance. They theorized: 1) that an
equilibrium number of species exists which characterizes any island of a given
size and distance from its source of colonists, and 2) the exact composition of
species present on an island should change over time and depend on the
historical processes of immigration and extinction. This work established the
discipline of theoretical ecology (1820).
Daniel
Solomon Simberloff (US) and Edward Osborne Wilson (US) tested the equilibrium
theory in the Florida Keys and found it to be valid (1533; 1534).
Edward F.
Connor (US) and Earl D. McCoy (US) showed that the number of species found on
an island, in a wooded lot, on an individual plant, on a harbor piling, in a
county, or in virtually any circumscribed region increases as a function of the
area or size of that region. They
implicated three mechanisms, habitat diversity, area per Se, and passive sampling, as possibly
causing any given species-area relationship, and suggested that the three were not mutually excluive. The
statistical description of this pattern yields parameters that are of
biological significance only when comparing the species richness of regions of
different areas or sizes (333).
Carl R.
Woese (US), Francis Harry Compton Crick (GB), and Leslie Eleazer Orgel (GB-US)
suggested that it would have been possible in a pre-DNA world to have a
primitive replicating and catalytic apparatus devoid of both DNA and proteins
and based solely on RNA molecules, i.e., an RNA
world (373; 1286; 1828).
Manfred
Eigen (DE), Manfred Sumper (DE), and Rudiger Luce (DE) reported that mixtures
of nucleotide monomers and RNA replicase
(ribozyme) will give rise to RNA molecules which replicate, mutate, and evolve (498; 1625).
Sidney
Altman (CA-US), Thomas Robert Cech (US), Mary Lou Pardue (US), Kelly Kruger
(US), Paula J. Grabowski (US), Cecilia Guerrier-Takada (US), Kathleen Gardiner
(US), Terry Marsh (US), Norman Richard Pace, Jr. (US), Arthur J. Zaug (US),
Julie Sands (US), Daniel E. Gottschling (US), and Olke Cornelis Uhlenbeck (US)
discovered a group of RNA molecules capable of acting as biological catalysts
(ribozymes) (22; 23; 280-286; 682; 973; 1868).
Harold B.
White, III (US), Bruce Michael Alberts (US), Walter Gilbert (US) and Antonio
Lazcano (MX) proposed that DNA and proteins were originally derived from
RNA-based cells or cell-like units (19; 622; 1006; 1799). This is
commonly referred to as the RNA world
hypothesis.
Gerry A.
Prody (US), John T. Bakos (US), Jamal M. Buzayan (US), Irving R. Schneider
(US), and George Bruening (US) discovered a dimeric plant virus satellite RNA
which was autolytic (1364).
Jennifer A.
Doudna (US) and Jack William Szostak (CA-US) found that the Tetrahymena ribozyme could splice
together multiple oligonucleotides aligned on a template strand to yield a
fully complementary product strand. This reaction demonstrates the feasibility
of RNA-catalyzed RNA replications and supports the RNA world hypothesis (459).
Heinz W.
Pley (US), Kevin M. Flaherty (US), and David B. McKay (US) published the
structure of a 'hammerhead RNA-DNA ribozyme-inhibitor complex' at 2.6 Ångstrom
resolution, in which the autocatalytic activity of the ribozyme was disrupted
via binding to a DNA substrate (1346).
Jamie H.D.
Cate (US), Anne R. Gooding (US), Elaine Podell (US), Kaihong Zhou (US), Barbara
L. Golden (US), Craig E. Kundrot (US), Thomas Robert Cech (US), and Jennifer A.
Doudna (US) described the crystal structure of a group I ribozyme domain and
principles of RNA packing (277).
Anne M.
Teisman (GB) and Gina Geffen (GB) asked the question: "Does our limited
capacity in selective listening tasks arise primarily in perception or in
response organization?" Their experimental results clearly showed that the
main limit is perceptual (1695).
Nikolai
Aleksandrovich Bernstein (RU) was one of the pioneers in the field of motor
control and motor learning. The field of motor control studies how the Central
Nervous System (CNS) controls posture and movement. He was the first to address
the question of how the CNS is capable of adequately controlling the many
degrees of freedom of the musculoskeletal system. Bernstein suggested that the
CNS is capable of "functionally freezing degrees of freedom." As an
analogy, controlling the four wheels of a car independently is very difficult.
Yet, by functionally freezing degrees of freedom (the two rear wheels are only
allowed to rotate around one shared horizontal axis, and the two front wheels
are also allowed to rotate in parallel around a longitudinal axis, controlled
by the steering wheel) a car becomes much easier to control. The question of
how the CNS is capable of adequately controlling the many degrees of freedom of
the musculoskeletal system was first addressed by Bernstein (131). Note: Bernstein’s work was begun in the 1920s but because it took
place during the “Cold War” era it was not appreciated until translation in
1967.
John H. Laragh
(US), Jean E. Sealey (US), John G. G. Ledingham (US), and Michael A. Newton
(US) established a relationship between the institution of oral contraceptive
therapy and the development or enhancement of high blood pressure in eight of
11 patients (995).
Bernard Lown
(US), Ali M. Fakhro (US), William B. Hood Jr. (US), and George W. Thorn (US)
John L.
Harper (GB) compares the contemporary accomplishments in plant ecology with the
fundamental ecological questions brought about in Origin of Species by Charles Darwin (711).
Robert A.
Rescoria (US) and Richard L. Solomon (US) presented a review of the emergence
of the distinction between Pavlovian conditioning and instrumental learning and
evaluated some of the evidence supporting it. They further presented a theory
of how these two kinds of learning might interact in producing learned behavior
(1401).
Alec Coppen
(GB) reviewed
various investigations into the role of neurotransmitters, endocrine factors,
and electrolytes in the etiology and treatment of depressive and manic illness (347).
Camille Arambourg (FR) and Yves Coppens (FR)
discovered Paraustralopithecus
aethiopicus: Australopithecus
aethiopicus: Paranthropus aethiopicus
in 1967 at a site named Koobi Fora. Their work would be largely ignored because
of the scarcity of fossils found (41; 42).
Alan Cyril
Walker (US), Richard Erskine Frere Leakey (KE), John Michael Harris (US), and
Frank H. Brown (US) also discovered the hominid Paraustralopithecus aethiopicus:
Australopithecus aethiopicus:
Paranthropus aethiopicus, WT 17000, west of Lake Turkana in Kenya. This
creature existed between 2.6 and 2.3 million years ago. This species is known
from one major specimen, the Black Skull, and a few other minor specimens,
which may belong to the same species. It may be an ancestor of robustus and boisei, but it has a baffling mixture of primitive and advanced
traits. The brain size is very small, at 410 cc, and parts of the skull,
particularly the hind portions, are very primitive, most resembling A. afarensis.
Other characteristics, like the massiveness of the face, jaws and single tooth
found, and the largest sagittal crest in any known hominid, are more
reminiscent of A. boisei (1746).
1968
“... the
history of science bores most scientists stiff. A great many highly creative
scientists . . . take it quite for granted, though they are usually too polite
or too ashamed to say so, that an interest in the history of science is a sign
of failing or unawakened powers.” Peter Brian Medawar (1140).
"The
energy that flows through a system acts to organize that system." Harold
Joseph Morowitz (1195).
“You will
die but the carbon will not; its career does not end with you…it will return to
the soil, and there a plant may take it up again in time, sending it once more
on a cycle of plant and animal life.” Jacob Bronowski (PL-GB) (202).
“Life is
very strange,” said Jeremy. “Compared to what?” replied the spider. Norman Moss (1203).
“When
resources are scarce, free access to common property —meadows, ocean fisheries,
or pollution-sinks like the atmosphere—is ruinous. Those who restrain their
demands because of long- term bad effects lose out in competition with
short-term maximizers. This perverse logic makes ruin inevitable.” Garrett
Hardin (710).
Har Gobind
Khorana (IN-US), Marshall Warren Nirenberg (US), and Robert William Holley
(US), were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their
interpretation of the genetic code and its function in protein synthesis.
Kurt
Wuethrich (CH) developed nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for
determining the three-dimensional structures of biological molecules (1847-1849).
For this
work he was awarded the 2002 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Charles Tanford (US) Kazuo Kawahara (JP), Savo Lapanje (SI),
Annette G. Kirschner (US), Thomas M. Hooker, Jr. (US), Mario H. Zarlengo (US),
Ahmau Salahuddin (US), Kirk C. Aune (US), Toshio Takagi (JP), and Jacqueline
Reynolds (US) proved the sequence/structure/function hypothesis; denatured
proteins did in fact behave as truly structureless polymer chains (‘random
coils’). Proteins, alive and functioning, carry within their structure the
secret of virtually all life processes. But when they are denatured, they are
dead (1647).
Arnold Henry Kadish (US), Robert L. Litle (US), and James C.
Sternberg (US) provided the first description of a polarographic method for the
measurement of glucose in biological fluids (883).
Jerry L. Hedrick (US) and Alan J. Smith (US) devised a simple
method for relating the electrophoretic mobility of a protein determined by
disc gel electrophoresis to its size and charge characteristics. The method is
applicable to a single protein or to mixtures of proteins, provided a specific
detection test is available. Knowing the relative size and charge of proteins
is not only useful for their differential characterization but also as a
predictive aid in their purification (733).
Arne Bøyum
(NO) presented methodology for isolation of mononuclear cells and granulocytes
from human blood as follows: isolation of mononuclear cells by one
centrifugation, and of granulocytes by combining centrifugation and
sedimentation at one gravity (178).
Ken Shortman
(AU) found that lymphocytes were separated according to their buoyant density,
by centrifugation to equilibrium in continuous gradients of albumin. The
procedure gave good resolution, high reproducibility, and good recovery of
biologically active cells. Lymphocytes were separable into a series of discrete
density sub- populations (1523).
Robert Burns
Woodward (US), Albert Eschenmoser (CH), and Claude E. Wintner (US) synthesized
cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) (514; 1837-1839).
David M.
Blow (GB) and Paul Sigler (GB) solved the tertiary structure of chymotrypsin (151; 152; 1531).
Carl Gustaf
Hellerqvist (SE-US), Bengt Lindberg (SE), Sigfrid Svensson (SE), Tord Holme
(SE), and Alf A. Lindberg (SE) described the application of a new methodology
to structural analysis of complex carbohydrates, in this case a bacterial
antigenic polysaccharide, utilizing gas chromatography for the separation and
tentative identification and mass spectroscopy for positive identification of
partially methylated alditol acetates obtained from the original and partially
degraded polysaccharide (742).
Margaret J.
Fletcher (US) devised a method for estimating the level of serum triglycerides.
The glycerol released by saponification of the serum glycerides is oxidized to
formaldehyde, which reacts with acetylacetone to form a yellow dihydrolutidine
derivative absorbing at 405 mμ (562).
Joel A.
Huberman (US) and Arthur D. Riggs (US) combined the techniques of pulse
labeling and DNA autoradiography to analyze DNA replication in Chinese hamster
and HeLa cells. Their results prove that the long fibers of
which chromosomal DNA is composed are made up of many tandemly joined sections
in each of which DNA is replicated at a fork-like growing point. In Chinese
hamster cells most of these sections are probably less than 30 μ. long,
and the rate of DNA replication per growing point is 2.5 μ per minute or
less. In Chinese hampster cells replication seems to proceed in opposite directions
at adjacent growing points. Furthermore, adjacent diverging growing points
appear to initiate replication at the same time (814).
Roy John
Britten (US) and David E. Kohne (US) were the first to describe repetitive
noncoding sequences of DNA in eukaryotic genomes. They went on to show that
some sequence elements occur in millions of copies in eukaryotes (Eucarya) (197; 198).
Nancy G.
Nossal (US) and Maxine Frank Singer (US) found that enzymatic degradation by Escherichia coli ribonuclease II starts
at the 3'-hydroxyl end. Furthermore, they demonstrated that the enzyme
hydrolyzes a given polyribonucleotide chain to completion before releasing a
small oliogonucleotide and initiating hydrolysis of a new chain. Singer termed
this “processive degradation” (1257).
Claude B.
Klee (US) and Maxine Frank Singer (US) used PNPase from Micrococcus lysodeikticus and showed
that this enzyme also degrades polyribonucleotide chains to completion before
releasing the end product and starting degradation of another chain. They
present several ways in which an enzyme might hang on to a growing polymer,
such as threading the polymer through a hole or depression in the enzyme. These
two papers were the first demonstrations of processive reactions (954).
Bernard
Weiss (US), Theodore R. Live (US), and Charles C. Richardson (US) prepared
duplex DNA molecules containing either internal 32P-phosphomonoesters, external
32P-phosphomonoesters, or both (1788).
Bernard
Weiss (US), Alain Jacquemin-Sablon (FR), Theodore R. Live (US), George C.
Fareed (US), and Charles C. Richardson (US) used polynucleotide kinase-labeled DNAs as substrates for
characterization of the reaction catalyzed by T4 polynucleotide ligase, an enzyme that repairs DNA single strand
breaks. They described a refinement of the isolation procedure for T4 ligase, as well as a rapid assay for
partially purified ligase that is
based on its ability to catalyze ATP-PPi exchange (1787).
Bernard
Weiss (US), Ann Thompson (US), and Charles C. Richardson (US) described the
properties of an intermediate in the ligase
reaction. They directly isolated and characterized a radioactively labeled ligase-AMP complex thus providing direct
evidence for its participation in the reaction (1789).
Christine
Guthrie (US) and Masayasu Nomura (JP-US) determined that the formation of an
initiation complex involving the 30S ribosomal subunit, F-met-tRNA F, and mRNA
is an obligatory step in the initiation of protein synthesis in bacterial
extracts (686).
Jean
Lucas-Lenard (US), Anne-Lise Haenni (US), Richard W. Erbe (US), Philip Leder
(US), Lawrence Skogerson (US), and Kivie Moldave (US) found that in protein
synthesis following the binding reaction, peptide bond formation ensues if the
peptidyl site carries peptidyl-tRNA, or an aminoacyl-tRNA with a free or a
blocked alpha-amino group on the amino acid (511; 1073; 1551).
Brian F.C.
Clark (GB-DK), Bhupendra P. Doctor (US), Kenneth C. Holmes (GB), Aaron Klug (ZA-GB), Kjeld Adrian
Marcker (DK), Shirley J. Morris (GB), and Heinrich H. Paradies (DE)
crystallized a transfer RNA molecule. The specific type was
n-formyl-methionyltransfer RNA (306).
Raymond O.
R. Kaempfer (US), Matthew Stanley Meselson (US), and Herschel J. Raskas (US),
based on their experimental work with Escherichia
coli, suggested that ribosomes must dissociate into their subunits between
successive rounds of translation (884).
Friedrich
Cramer (DE), Helmut Doepner (DE), Friedrich von der Haar (DE), Eckhard Schlimme
(DE), and Hans-Peter Seidel (DE) proposed a general tertiary structure for tRNA
molecules (367).
Brian F.C.
Clark (GB-DK), Shyam K. Dube (US), and Kjeld Adrian Marcker (DK), using Escherichia coli, provided the first
direct experimental evidence for the position of the anticodon sequence in the
structure of a tRNA (307).
Peter Traub (US)
and Masayasu Nomura (JP-US) completely reconstituted the 30S ribosomal subunit
of Escherichia coli from 16S RNA and
proteins (1690).
Robert
Palese Perry (US) and Dawn E. Kelley (US) were among the first to isolate 28S
ribosomal RNA (28SrRNA) (1330).
Shahla
Riyasaty (IE) and John F. Atkins (IE-US) showed that messenger RNA (mRNA)
molecules are not always translated in a triplet manner (1411).
Hisaji
Yamazaki (JP), Satoshi Mizuno (JP), Kazuo Nitta (JP), Ryozo Utahara (JP) and
Hamao Umezawa (JP) determined that streptovaricin
inhibits RNA and protein synthesis in microorganisms, particularly in
gram-positive bacteria (1857).
Jan Drenth
(NL), Johan N. Jansonius (NL), Roelof Koekoek (NL), H.M. Swen (NL), and Bert G.
Wolthers (NL), determined the three-dimensional structure of papain (463).
Robert Lee
Hill (US), Keith Brew (GB-US), Thomas C. Vanaman (US), Ian P. Trayer (GB), and
P. Mattock (GB) reported the structure, function, and evolution of the milk
protein, alpha-lactalbumin (768).
W.S.L.
Roberts (IE), Jack Leonard Strominger (US), and Dieter Söll (DE-US) isolated two
threonyl-tRNAs from M. roseus R27
that catalyzed the incorporation of L-threonine onto the -amino group of lysine in the bacteria’s interpeptide bridge. The
threnyl-tRNAs were also able to catalyze protein biosynthesis (1414).
Jean-Francois
Petit (FR), Jack Leonard Strominger (US), and Dieter Söll (DE-US) isolated four
seryl-tRNAs involved in the transfer of serine to a lipid intermediate of
peptidoglycan synthesis. However, only three of the tRNAs could be shown to
participate in protein synthesis (1335). It was later discovered that
the tRNA which apparently did not participate in protein synthesis is the
bacterial selenocysteine tRNA.
Robert M.
Bumsted (US), June L. Dahl (US), Dieter Söll (DE-US), and Jack Leonard
Strominger (US) reported on their isolation of three glycine acceptor tRNAs
from S. aureus. All three tRNAs are
active in peptidoglycan synthesis, but only two can produce polypeptides (226).
Thomas S. Stewart (AU), Richard J. Roberts (US), and Jack Leonard
Strominger (US) found a species of tRNAGly from Staphylococcus
epidermidis, which participates in peptidoglycan synthesis but not in
protein synthesis. They purified it to homogeneity. It contains only a single
modified base, 4-thiouridine (1606).
Aaron
Jeffrey Shatkin (US) and Jean D. Sipe (US), working with reovirus, were the
first to find a virion-bound RNA-dependent
RNA polymerase (1516).
Donald F.
Summers (US), Jacob V. Maizel, Jr. (US), Michael F. Jacobson (US), and David
Baltimore (US) demonstrated with poliovirus that the proteolytic processing of
RNA virus proteins could be mediated by a virus-encoded rather than cellular
proteinase (843; 1620).
Donald
Arthur Walsh (US), John P. Perkins (US), Edwin Gerhard Krebs (US), Thomas R.
Soderling (US), John P. Hickenbottom (US), Erwin M. Reimann (US), and Felix L.
Hunkeler (US) discovered a protein kinase
which is stimulated by cyclic AMP, and which is responsible not only for
activating phosphorylase but also for
inactivating glycogen synthetase (1568; 1750).
Earl Reece
Stadtman (US), Bennett M. Shapiro (US), Henry S. Kingdon (US), Clifford A.
Woolfolk (US), and Jerry S. Hubbard (US) discovered that glutamine synthetase of Escherichia
coli is subject to rigorous control by at least four different mechanisms:
(1) repression and derepression of enzyme formation, (2) cumulative feedback
inhibition by multiple end-products of glutamine metabolism, (3) enzyme
catalyzed alterations of preformed glutamine
synthetase effecting modulation of glutamine
synthetase activity, divalent ion specificity and feedback inhibitor
responses, and (4) modulation of glutamine
synthetase activity by variations in the ratios of ATP, manganese ions, and
other nucleotide tri- and di-phosphates (1582).
Carl
Schnaitman (US) and John W. Greenawalt (US) localized the following enzymes to
rat liver mitochondrial membranes: outer membrane-monoamine oxidase, kynurenine
hydroxylase, rotenone-insensitive
NADH-cytochrome c reductase, nucleoside
diphosphokinase; inner membrane plus matrix-succinate-cytochrome c reductase, succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome
oxidase, beta-hydroxybutyrate
dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate
dehydrogenase, lipoamide
dehydrogenase, NAD- and
NADH-isocitrate dehydrogenase, glutamate
dehydrogenase, aspartate
aminotransferase, ornithine
transcarbamoylase; intramembranous space- nucleoside diphosphokinase, adenylate
kinase (1487).
Yasuchiro
Anraku (US) isolated galactose-binding and leucine-binding proteins from the
surface material of Escherichia coli
K12 cells (40).
Howard
Michael Goodman (US), John Norman Abelson (US), Arthur Landy (GB), Sydney
Brenner (ZA-GB), and John D. Smith (GB) reported their finding of a suppressor gene. In certain mutants a
single base change alters the meaning of a messenger codon in such a way that,
instead of spelling out an amino acid, it spells out chain termination. Mutants
in a quite different gene, called a suppression
gene, allow the chain-terminating triplet to be read as an amino acid.
Their experiments showed that a mutated tRNA, which carries a single base
change in its anticodon, causes this. This allows it to read the
chain-terminating codon as an amino acid (640).
B. van der
Westhuizen (ZA), Yuji Inaba (JP), Yoshio Tanaka (JP), Kunihiko Sato (JP), Hiroshi
Ito (JP), Tuneyoshi Omori (JP), and Minoru Matumoto (JP) discovered the Aedes
albopictus transmitted virus responsible for bovine ephemeral fever
(bovine epizootic fever) characterized by fever, running eyes and nose,
respiratory distress, stiffness, leukopenia and low fatality (829; 1723).
Stephen
Cooper (US), Charles Helmstetter (US), Olga Pierucci (US), and Eras Revelas
(US) established the rules for replication in the Escherichia coli life cycle (346; 744).
Misao Ohki
(JP) and Jun-ichi Tomizawa (JP-US) demonstrated that during bacterial
conjugation the donor DNA is transferred as a single strand with the 5-prime
terminus leading the way (1273).
Richard C.
Weisenberg (US) and Edwin W. Taylor (US) were the first to describe the
presence of non-axonemal dynein within cells (1784).
Richard C.
Weisenberg (US), Gary Guy Borisy (US), and Edwin William Taylor (US) identified
tubulin as the protein subunit of
microtubules (1783).
Timothy J.
Mitchison (US) and Marc Wallace Kirschner (US) described how tubulin polymerizes into microtubules,
i.e., that microtubules coexist in growing and shrinking populations that
interconvert infrequently - a state that the authors named 'dynamic instability' (1178). They also
found that growth of microtubules from centrosomes is governed by dynamic instability (1179).
C. Elizabeth
Oakley (US) and Berl R. Oakley (US) discovered a third type of cellular tubulin, which they named gamma-tubulin. They
found it to be essential for nuclear division and microtubule assembly in Aspergillus nidulans (1266).
Berl R.
Oakley (US), C. Elizabeth Oakley (US), Yisang Yoon (US), and M. Katherine Jung
(US) noted that gamma-tubulin has microtubule-nucleating properties (1265).
Federico Leighton (CL), Brian Poole (BE), Henri Beaufay (BE),
Pierre Baudhuin (BE), John W. Coffey (US), Stanley Fowler (US), and Christian
Rene de Duve (GB-BE-US) described the first large-scale preparation of
peroxisomes—a feat that made possible more conclusive
and precise characterization of their biochemical and
morphological properties (1019).
Charles L.
Fox, Jr. (US) combined silver with sulfadiazine to produce a mild, easily
applied drug at least 50 times more active than sulfadiazine alone. Introduced
to the market in 1968 as Silvadene R, it has proven to be the most efficacious
topical (surface application) compound for controlling bacteria in open wounds
of any size. The combination inhibits infection over extended periods of time
allowing dermal structures to reconstruct themselves naturally, unimpeded by
bacteria. The complete restoration of wound areas proceeds naturally and
painlessly, avoiding the need for skin grafts. All the pre-existing functions
of the damaged area are restored to their original fully functional state by
natural reconstruction (570).
Surendra P.
Shrivastava (US), Masuhisa Tsukamoto (JP), and John Edward Casida (US) reported
a mechanism of insect resistance to carbamate insecticides in which
hydroxylation occurs at various points on the molecule, not only the aromatic
group but also the N-methyl on the carbamate, as well as some demethylation (1525).
David Y.
Thomas (GB) and David Wilkie (GB) demonstrated that in Saccharomyces cerevisiae erythromycin resistance was inherited in a
non-Mendelian manner and was eliminated by conversion of the strain to r-.
The discovery of an antibiotic-resistant marker residing on the r determinant
ushered in the era of formal mitochondrial genetics, because these markers were
phenotypically dissimilar and behaved as point mutations, thus allowing studies
of recombination (1669).
William L.
Brown, Jr. (US) describes an interspecific chemical signal as an allomone (210). If the
benefit is to the recipient the substance is referred to as a kairomone, if both organisms benefit
then it is a synomone.
John T.O.
Kirk (GB-AU) argues that the dependence of chlorophyll pigment synthesis on
protein synthesis is not due to the lability of the enzyme used to make the
chlorophyll precursor, d-aminolae- vulinic acid, but to inhibition of formation
of chlorophyll-carrier protein (950).
Ralph D.
Amen (US) considered seed dormancy as a specific developmental pathway that can
be subdivided into a sequence of stages. He recognized four stages: induction,
maintenance, triggering, and germination. Consideration of schemes such as
these suggest that each stage will be subject to its own regulatory controls,
and that these will be ultimately gene controlled. Thus, dormancy can now be
seen not simply as a phase of arrested growth, but as a genetically determined
sequence of developmental events (26).
Donald R.
Forsdyke (GB) took the natural selection theory of immunity of Jerne, with its
emphasis on natural antibody, and combined it with the clonal selection theory
of Burnet, with its emphasis on cells, to produce a simple "two site"
hypothesis of the mechanism of immune self-recognition in vivo. He made an analogy with a similar process occurring in
liquid scintillation counters containing two photocells and a coincidence
circuit (566).
Kamal K.
Mittal (US), Max R. Mickey (US), Dharam P. Singal (US), and Paul IchiroTerasaki
(US) devised a microtest method for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing and
tissue matching of human donors and recipients of organ or tissue transplants.
The method was made simple and highly reproducible through critical evaluation
of each step of the test procedure (1182).
Gustav
Joseph Victor Nossal (AU), Alistair J. Cunningham (CA), Graham Frank Mitchell
(AU), Jacques Francis Albert Pierre Miller (FR-AT-AU), Niels Kaj Jerne (GB-DK),
Albert A. Nordin (US), Claudia Henry (US), Hiroshi Fuji (US), Aurelia M.C.
Koros (US), and Ivan Lefkovits (CH) demonstrated that when stimulated by a
specific antigen, each B cell becomes a plasma cell that secretes antibodies
with a single specificity (864; 865; 1251; 1255).
Evan M.
Hersh (US) and Jules E. Harris (US) presented experimental results consistent
with the view that macrophage uptake of antigen and macrophage-lymphocyte
interaction are necessary for the blastogenic response of lymphocytes to
antigen in vitro (753).
Hugh O’Neill
McDevitt (US) and Marvin L. Tyan (US) found that if they transferred spleen cells from (C3H X C57B1/6)
F1 mice, capable of responding to (T, G)-A--L, into irradiated C3H parental
recipients, normally incapable of responding to (T, G)-A--L, that the ability
to make either a primary or secondary immune response to this synthetic
polypeptide antigen was transferred. This localizes the genetic control of the
ability to respond to the spleen cell population and indicates that the genetic
control is exerted upon a process directly related to antibody formation.
Studies with congenic strains of mice and linkage studies in segregating
backcross populations show that the ability to respond to (T, G)-A--L and
(It)-A--L is linked to the H-2 locus
and can thus be localized to the IXth mouse linkage group. Note: The antigens
were composed of a polylysine backbone with side chains of poly-nL-alanine
terminating in short, random sequences of either tyrosine and glutamic acid,
[(T, G)-A--L], or histidine and glutamic acid, [(H, G)-A--L], or phenylalanine
and glutamic acid, [(P, G)-A--L]. The multipolyalanyl-polylysine (A--L) part of
these antigens is not antigenic by itself, and the antibody response to (T,
G)-A--L is specific for the tyrosine, glutamic acid, and alanine at the end of
each side chain (1129).
Emil R.
Unanue (CU-US) and Brigette A. Askonas (GB) found that when peritoneal
macrophages were cultured for several hours after uptake of iodine-131-labeled
hemocyanin. The cells degraded most of the iodine-labeled protein within 2-5
hr. Their ability to prime lymphocytes of syngeneic mice for a secondary immune
challenge remained unchanged for long periods of time despite the loss of more
than 90 % of the original content of antigen. The persistence of immunogenicity
was associated with a small percentage of antigen retained by the cell in a
form, which was protected from rapid breakdown and elimination (1713).
Motoo Kimura
(JP) proposed that genetic variability is maintained in a finite population due
to mutational production of neutral and nearly neutral isoalleles (944; 945). This is referred to as the neutral mutation theory of molecular
evolution (the neutral theory).
Donald D.
Brown (US), Igor Bert Dawid (US), and Joseph Grafton Gall (US) proved in the
African clawed toad, Xenopus,
that the rRNA genes just like the nucleoli are
present in 1000-fold excess in oocyte GVs, a phenomenon
that they named specific
gene amplification (205; 594).
Robert Tod
Schimke (US), Frederik W. Alt (US), Rodney E. Kellems (US), Randal J. Kaufman
(US), and Joseph R. Bertino (US) discovered gene
amplification in mammalian cells (21; 1482; 1483). Gene
amplification can result in cellular resistance to cancer chemotherapy drugs.
Donald D. Brown (US), Carl S. Weber (US), Pieter C. Wensink (US),
and Eddie Jordan (US) found that 5 S RNA genes
are not linked to the rDNA genes in Xenopus laevis.
Tens of thousands of these 5 S RNA genes are arranged in tandem
and distributed on many chromosomes
(206; 207).
Nina Fedoroff (US), Donald D. Brown (US), J. Ross Miller (US),
Elma M. Cartwright (US), and George G. Brownlee (US) subsequently sequenced an
entire repeat from Xenopus laevis genomic 5 S DNA. This was the
first time that a full-length eukaryotic
gene had been sequenced (1166).
Barbara R.
Migeon (US) and Carol S. Miller (US) were the first to assign an autosomal gene
to a particular human chromosome (thymidine
kinase to chromosome 17) and proved the usefulness of the parasexual
fusion-segregation approach to human gene mapping (1158).
Jacques
Francis Albert Pierre Miller (FR-AT-AU) and Graham F. Mitchell (Australia)
demonstrated experimentally that antibody-producing cells originate in the bone
marrow (1164; 1165).
Arthur
Cronquist (US) wrote The Evolution and
Classification of Flowering Plants, outlining what became known as the Cronquist system. In this system he
organized some 350 families of plants by their evolutionary relationships,
describing which families are very closely related and which are more distantly
related. Since its introduction the system has become the most widely used and
accepted reference for botanists studying the evolution of plants (374).
Calaway H. Dodson (US), Robert L. Dressler (US), Harold G. Hills
(US), Ralph M. Adams (US) and Norris H. Williams (US) found that some orchids have
fragrances composed of 18-20 chemical compounds effective both as general and
specific attractants for euglossine bees (447).
Abby Conway
(US) and Daniel Edward Koshland, Jr. (US) discovered an example of negative
cooperativity in enzymes. When glyceraldehyde
3-phosphate dehydrogenase binds one molecule of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate
this reduces its ability to bind a second molecule of the same substrate (335).
Antoinette
Ryter (FR), Yukinori Hirota (JP), and Francois Jacob (FR) proposed that the
bacterial DNA molecule is attached to the cell membrane and that the synthesis
of new cell-membrane material during elongation of the rod-shaped cell occurs
in a narrow zone of growth that is situated between the points of attachment of
the two partially replicated DNA molecules. Thus, growth of the membrane
between these points of attachment would cause the continuous separation of the
two future genomes (1451).
Ernst Hadorn
(CH) discovered that cells retain an ability to differentiate in only one way
(such as wing) for 100 generations or more, even though there are no known
morphological or biochemical criteria by which they differ from other cells
only able to differentiate in a different direction (such as leg). This is the
state of determination (693).
William N.
Lipscomb (US) solved the structure of carboxypeptidase (1058).
Junko Hosoda
(JP-US) and Cyrus Levinthal (US) used the term early genes to refer to the group of viral genes transcribed
immediately following infection (799).
Samuel
Rahbar (IR) discovered three rare human hemoglobins, two of the patients also
showed an abnormal fast-moving hemoglobin fraction: both were suffering from diabetes mellitus. He also discovered
HbA1c which he called the "diabetes protein" (1380).
Ronald J.
Koenig (US), Charles M. Peterson (US), Robert L. Jones (US), Christopher Saudek
(US), Mark Lehrman (US) and Anthony Cerami (US) discovered a correlation of
glucose regulation and hemoglobin A1C blood level in diabetes mellitus (960).
The Diabetes Control and
Complications Trial Research (DCCT) Group, D.M. Nathan (GB), S. Genuth (GB), J.
Lachin (GB), P. Cleary (GB), O. Crofford (GB), M. Davis (GB), L. Rand (GB), and
C.Siebert (GB)
established HbA1c as a valuable clinical marker in people with type 1 diabetes (433).
The United
Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) Group established HbA1c as a
valuable clinical marker in people with type 2 diabetes (676).
Note: HbA1c became
arguably the most important indicator of blood glucose control, enabling doctor
and patient to, for the first time, critically assess the impact of lifestyle
changes and medication on long-term health.
Karl W.A.
Wirtz (NL), Donald B. Zilversmit (US) isolated a group of lipid transfer
proteins, which can promote the movement of lipid from one membrane to another
within the cell (1824; 1825).
K. Theodor
Brunner (CH), Jacques Mauel (CH), Jean-Charles Cerottini (CH), and Bernard
Chapuis (CH) developed a quantitative assay of the lytic action of immune
lymphoid cells (215). We now
know that this was evidence for the presence of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs).
F. Rudolf
Turner (US) studied spermatogenesis of the alga Nitella and found that it resembled animal spermatogenesis in many
respects (1704).
David Arthur
John Tyrrell (GB), June Dalziel Almeida (GB), Daniel M. Berry (GB), Charles H.
Cunningham (US), Dorothy Hamre (GB), Melvin S. Hofstad (US), Livio Mallucci
(GB), Ken McIntosh (US), Walter R. Dowdle (GB), M. Tajima (GB), L.Y.
Zakstelskaya (GB), Bernard C. Easterday (GB), Albert Zaven Kapikian (GB), R.W.
Bingham (GB), Dennis J. Alexander (GB), David J. Garwes (GB), John C.
Hierholzer (GB), and Malcolm R. Macnaughton (GB) were the first to recognize
and characterize the coronaviruses (1706-1708).
Robert Paul
Hanson (US) and Richard F. Marsh (US) reported the physical and chemical
properties of the transmissible mink
encephalopathy agent (709).
Margaret J.
Polley (US) and Hans Joachim Müller-Eberhard (DE-US-DE) identified C3 convertase, the enzyme responsible
for activating the C3 component of complement (1352).
Murray A.
Matthews (US) found that there is a critical diameter
for the initiation of myelin production ranging from 1-2 µm (1120).
Torbjörn
Oskar Caspersson (SE), Sidney Farber (SE), Jan Kudynowski (SE), Lore Zech (SE),
Claes Johansson (SE), Edward J. Modest (US), George E. Foley (US), Ulhas V.
Wagh (SE), Eva Simonsson (SE), Gösta Gahrton (SE), Jan Lindsten (SE), Maj
Hulton (SE), Gösta Lomakka (SE), Adrian T. Sumner (GB), H. John Evans (GB),
Richard A. Buckland (GB), and Marina Seabright (GB) discovered and perfected a
staining procedure by which chromosomes took on a characteristic banding
pattern. The bands, corresponding to regions rich in AT pairs, were called Q
bands if quinacrine was used and G bands if Giemsa stain was used. In most cases
the banding pattern was so unique that individual chromosomes could be
discriminated from all others in a karyotype (267-275; 1499; 1624).
Tao C. Hsu
(US) and Frances E. Arrighi (US) were the first to present a centromeric or
C-banding technique. C-banding preferentially stains consecutive
heterochromatin based on satellite DNA (809).
Bernard Dutrillaux (FR) developed telomeric
banding which is the staining of the telomeric (end) regions of chromosomes (475).
Bernard
Dutrillaux (FR) and Jérome Jean Louis Marie Lejeune (FR) developed reverse or
R-banding which shows as the reverse of Giemsa or G-bands (476).
Harunori
Ishikawa (US), Richard Bischoff (US), and Howard Holtzer (US) identified intermediate filaments as a completely
new kind of cellular filament (835).
Stanley D.
Beck (US) performed studies of photoperiodic and thermoperiodic regulation of
insect diapause induction and development, cold hardiness, voltinism, and
neuroendocrine regulation, which culminated in his dual-system theory of
insect, time measurement (105-107).
Randall K.
Cole (US), Joseph H. Kite, Jr. (US), and Ernest Witebsky (DE-US) established
that the clinical symptoms in the Obese strain of chickens are attributable to
a spontaneously arising thyroiditis, which is autoimmune in nature (322).
Georg Wick
(AT) characterized this avian model as the closest counterpart to human Hishimoto’s disease (1805).
John W.
Blunt (NZ), Hector F. DeLuca (US), and Heinrich K. Schnoes (US) isolated an
active substance identified as 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-hydroxycholecalciferol),
which was later proved to be produced in the liver (153; 420).
Michael F.
Holick (US), Heinrich K. Schnoes (US), Hector F. DeLuca (US), Anthony Westcott
Norman (US), Ronald J. Midgett (US), James F. Myrtle (US), Henry G. Nowicki
(US), Vince Williams (US), George Joseph Popjak (US), D. Eric M. Lawson (GB),
David R. Fraser (AU), Egon Kodicek (GB), H.R. Morris (GB), and Dudley H.
Williams (GB) reported the existence of a second active metabolite (1,
25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 or 1, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol) and showed that this
second metabolite is produced in the kidney (421; 574; 792; 1005; 1252; 1253).
Michael F.
Holick (US), Anke Kleiner-Bossaller (US), Heinrich K. Schones (US), Patricia M.
Kasten (US), Iain T. Boyle (US), and Hector F. DeLuca (US) found that the liver
changes vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) to 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, the major
circulating form of the vitamin. The kidneys then convert 25-hydroxyvitamin D3
to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, the active form of the vitamin, which accumulates
in cell nuclei of the intestine, where it regulates calcium metabolism (791).
Richard E.
Gray (US), John L. Omdahl (US), Jacob G. Ghazarian (US), and Hector F. DeLuca
(US) found the subcellular location of the enzyme responsible for the
hydroxylation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the
chicken kidney. Some of the properties of the hydroxylase, which DeLuca determined was in the mitochondria, are
also described (667).
Tai C. Chen
(US), and Hector F. DeLuca (US) were able to show that most of the vitamin
derivative was in a crude nuclear debris fraction. It was subsequently
confirmed that the active vitamin D metabolite binds to a transcription factor
in the nucleus of cells in the intestine. The transcription factor then
regulates gene expression of transport proteins that are involved in calcium
absorption in the intestine (294).
Michael F.
Holick (US), Anke Kleiner-Bossaller (US), Heinrich K. Schones (US), Patricia M.
Kasten (US), Iain T. Boyle (US), and Hector F. DeLuca (US) reported on the
isolation and characterization of the vitamin D metabolite,
1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3. It had been found that under normal calcemia,
hypercalcemia, and hyperphosphatemia conditions, the kidney limited the
production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and instead synthesized
24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Evidence had also indicated that this metabolite was
further metabolized to a more polar compound responsible for biological
responses. This suggested that there might be an alternate pathway for vitamin
D3 metabolism and that the metabolite of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 might be a
tissue-specific hormone that would stimulate only intestinal calcium transport.
They isolated the metabolite in pure form from chicken kidney homogenates and
identified it as 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3 (791).
Hector F.
DeLuca (US) summarized as follows: In response to low blood calcium,
parathyroid hormone is secreted that in turn stimulates 1-hydroxylase in the kidney to produce the vitamin D hormone. The
vitamin D hormone together with parathyroid hormone then provides for the
mobilization of calcium from bone and renal reabsorption of calcium, and
1,25-(OH) 2D3 by itself provides for the absorption of calcium and phosphorus (422). See Brumbaugh, 1975.
Nicholas
Bruchovsky (US) and Jean D. Wilson (US) showed that within 1min following its
administration testosterone is taken up by the prostate, and at least 90% is
converted to three products, androstandiol, dihydrotestosterone, and
androsterone. From prostatic nuclei, however, only testosterone-3H and
dihydrotestosterone-3H were recovered for as long as 2 hours following
testosterone injection (212).
Philip
Duryeé McMaster (US) and Robert E. Franzl (US) performed experiments strongly
suggesting that antibody production is intimately associated with the
proliferation and development of lymphoid elements (1135).
Yoko Takahashi (US), David M. Kipnis (US), and William H. Daughaday (US)
discovered that in young adults a remarkable peak of growth hormone (GH)
secretion occurs about one hour after the onset of deep sleep. This GH
secretion is clearly entrained with the onset of deeper levels of sleep and not
with discernible metabolic stimuli (1642).
Stanley J.
Dudrick (US), Douglas W. Wilmore (US), Harry M. Vars (US), and Jonathan Evans
Rhoads (US) reported the successful maintenance of a young child by total
parenteral nutrition (TPN) (467).
Joseph Frank
Sambrook (GB-US-AU), Heiner Westphal (US), Parithychery R. Srinivasan (IN-US),
and Renato Dulbecco (IT-US) discovered that simian virus 40 (SV40) can integrate
into host DNA, becoming a provirus which is covalently bonded with the cellular
DNA (1463).
Kinichiro Oda (JP) and Renato Dulbecco (IT-US) found that if simian virus
40 (SV40) is integrated as a provirus it continues to be transcribed into
messenger RNA, even hundreds of generations after the original integration and
transformation event. They also established that in lytic infection with SV40
the entire viral genome is transcribed in two nearly equal parts, one early,
before the inception of replication of the viral DNA, the other late after DNA
replication has begun and that the early RNA is also present in transformed
cells (1268).
Dona M.
Lindstrom (US) and Renato Dulbecco (IT-US) subsequently discovered that in SV40
the early and late messengers are transcribed from different strands of the
viral DNA (1056).
Joseph Frank
Sambrook (GB-US-AU), Bill Sugden (US), Walter Keller (DE-US), Phillip A. Sharp
(US), Brad Ozanne (US) Terri Grodzicker (US), Jim Williams (GB-US), Ulf
Pettersson (SE), Sarah Jane Flint (US), Yvonne Wewerka-Lutz (US), and Arthur S.
Levine (US) produced physical, genetic, and transcriptional maps of the genomes
of simian virus 40 and adenovirus 2 (563; 674; 1293; 1460-1462; 1514). The 1974
Grodzicker paper contains the first use of restriction-fragment-length
polymorphism (RFLP) analysis.
Masanori Daibata (JP), Takahiro
Taguchi (JP), Yuiko Nemoto (JP), Hirokuni Taguchi (JP), Isao Miyoshi (JP),
Philip E. Pellett (US),
Dharam V. Ablashi (US), Peter F. Ambros (AT), Henri Agut (FR), Mary T. Caserta
(US), Vincent Descamps (FR), Louis Flamand (CA), Agnès Gautheret-Dejean (US),
Caroline B. Hall (US), Rammurti T. Kamble (US), Uwe Kuehl (DE), Dirk Lassner

Paolo Lusso (US), Peter G. Medveczky (US), Jose G. Montoya (US), Yasuko Mori
(JP), Masao Ogata (JP), Joshua C. Pritchett (US), Sylvie Rogez (FR), Edward Seto
(US), Katherine N. Ward (GB), Tetsushi Yoshikawa (JP), and Raymund R. Razonable
(US) presented
evidence that occasionally Human
Herpesvirus 6 integrates its DNA into germ-line cells (382; 1319).
A. Araujo (FR), Anne Pagnier (FR),
Pierre Frange (FR), Isabelle Wroblewski (FR), Marie-José Stasia (FR), Patrice
Morand (FR), and Dominique Plantaz (FR) presented evidence that in rare
vertical transmission of Herpesvirus 6
the viral genome is integrated into the human DNA in every cell in the infant’s
body (43).
Rudolf
Siegert (DE), Hsin Lu Shu (CN), and Werner Slenczka (DE) isolated and
identified the Marburg virus. This
was a new virus and the first filovirus
to be identified (1528; 1529). Ebola, the second filovirus to be identified caused its first known outbreak of hemorrhagic fever in the Sudan of Africa
during 1976 (185; 1285). All filoviruses are classified as biosafety
level 4 (BSL 4) agents based on their high mortality rate.
Karl M.
Johnson (US), James V. Lange (US), Patricia A. Webb (US), and Frederick A.
Murphy (US) isolated and partially characterized a new virus causing acute
hemorrhagic fever in Zaire, Africa (867). This virus
would later be called Ebola.
Zhi-Yong
Yang (US), Henricus J. Duckers (US), Nancy J. Sullivan (US), Anthony Sanchez
(US), Elizabeth G. Nabel (US), and Gary J. Nabel (US) identified
a glycoprotein of the Ebola virus as the main viral determinant of vascular
cell cytotoxicity and injury (1858)
Rainer F.
Storb (US), Robert B. Epstein (US), Jean Bryant (US), Haakon Ragde (US), and E.
Donnell Thomas (US), after developing dog typing sera, achieved survival of
most histocompatibility matched, but not of unmatched, recipients of bone
marrow from littermate donors. Recipients were cytoablated and treated with a
short course of post-graft methotrexate (1612).
Elwood
Vernon Jensen (US) identified estrogen receptor a (ERa) (851). It is
found on human chromosome 6 and contains 595 amino acid residues.
George G.
Kuiper (SE), Eva Enmark (SE), Markku Pelto-Huikko (SE), Stefan Nilsson (SE),
and Jan Åke Gustafsson (SE) discovered estrogen receptor b (ERb) (976). It is
found on chromosome 14 in humans and has 530 residues in its amino acid chain.
The degree of similarity (homology) in the ligand-binding domain (LBD) between
the two receptors is only 59 per cent. Breast cancer tumors are classed
according to the type of receptor involved in cell proliferation as either ERa+
or ERa- (ERb+). Both receptors can be present in breast tumors, in different
concentrations and playing different roles.
Richard A.
Gatti (US), Hilaire J. Meuwissen (US), Hugh D. Allen (US), Richard Hong (US),
and Robert Alan Good (US) performed the first completely successful bone marrow
transplant. It was in a child with otherwise uniformly lethal X-SCID [X-linked
agammaglobulinemia, thymic
alymphoplasia, and severe combined
immunodeficiency disease] (602). Note:
The patient lived to become a healthy adult. They subsequently performed a
successful bone marrow transplant for correction of immunological deficit in lymphopenic
agammaglobulinemia and treatment of immunologically induced pancytopenia (636).
Fritz H.
Bach (US), Richard J. Albertini (US), Patricia Joo (US), James L. Anderson
(US), and Mortimer M. Bortin (US) performed a partially successful allogeneic
bone marrow engraftment in a child with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (58).
C. Wayne
Smith (US), Armond S. Goldman (US), Sylvia S. Crago (US), Shirley J. Prince
(US), Thomas G. Pretlow (US), Jerry R. McGhee (US), and Jiri Mestecky (US)
demonstrated that human milk contains several cell types including neutrophils,
macrophages, and lymphocytes (362; 1556).
C. Wayne
Smith (US), Armond S. Goldman (US), and Robert D. Yates (US) found that many
milk leukocytes are living, motile, and interactive (1556-1558).
Graham F.
Mitchell (AU) and Jacques Francis Albert Pierre Miller (AU) found that
antibody-secreting cells are derived from precursors in bone marrow and not in
the thymus (1174).
Vance Tucker
(US) was the first to measure an identifiable relationship between flight speed
and the metabolic power required. He obtained these results by training two
budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulates)
to fly at different speeds, while wearing a light weight acetate mask designed
to capture the birds expired gases. Tucker found that his birds required high
rates of energy release at both fast and slow flight speeds but at intermediate
speeds flight costs were more economical (1702).
Colin James
Pennycuick (GB-KE) obtained similar results using the pigeon Columba livia (1321).
Subsequent
studies of flight metabolism in other species generated essentially flat
metabolic power curves, suggesting that some birds require little change in
metabolic power to fly across a wide range of speeds.
Sulo
Toivonen (FI) and Lauri Saxén (FI) proposed a double gradient hypothesis to explain how the dorsal lip of the
blastopore, when transplanted to the ventral side of a host embryo, could
induce the host tissues to form a second embryo around the transplant. They
suggested that there were two inducers, and that each inducer was setting up a
gradient of inducing agent, and that the interactions between the two gradients
allowed for the full induction of structures (1683).
David R.
Nalin (US), Richard A. Cash (US) Rafigul Islam (BD), Majid Molla (BD), and
Robert Allan Phillips (US) introduced an oral solution containing glucose,
sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium chloride or citrate as
maintenance therapy for acute cholera. In comparison with control patients who
received only intravenous replacement of their stool losses, the patients who
received the oral solution required 80% less intravenous fluids for cure (1215). The English medical journal, The
Lancet calls oral replacement therapy (ORT) “potentially the most important
medical advance of this century."
Clarence
Joseph Gibbs, Jr. (US), Daniel Carleton Gajdusek (US), David M. Asher (US),
Michael P. Alpers (AU), Elizabeth Beck (GB), Peter M. Daniel (GB), and W. Bryan
Matthews (GB) determined that Creutzfeldt-Jakob
disease is transmissible with the long incubation period characteristic of
slow infections (619).
Yuet Wai Kan
(CN-US) and David Gordon Nathan (US) developed a way to detect beta-thalassemia
trait at birth (893).
David Negus (GB), Donald J.P. Pinto (US), Leslie Philip Le Quesne (GB),
Nathaniel F. Brown (US), and Mark Jonathan Chapman (US) reported that
ninety-three post-operative patients were investigated by intravenous
125I-labelled fibrinogen and leg scanning. A 93% correlation with phlebography
was observed in 26 legs with deep-vein thrombosis, and 100% correlation in
normal veins. Most thrombi were detected within 48 hours of operation, and
physical signs were present in only a few (1221).
Robert L.
Baehner (US) and David G. Nathan (US) first described the Nitroblue Tetrazolium
Test to determine the oxidation capacities of blood polymorphonuclear
leukocytes from children and adults in a wide assortment of disease states.
Several slide tests were adapted to assess NBT reduction by individual cells
and to establish the diagnosis of chronic
granulomatous disease prenatally (62). The test is now standard in
many clinical and research
laboratories throughout the world.
Brigette
Royer-Pokora (US), Louis M. Kunkel (US), Anthony P. Monaco (US), Sabra C. Goff
(US), Peter E. Newburger (US), Robert L. Baehner (US), F. Sessions Cole (US),
John T. Curnutte (US), and Stuart H. Orkin (US) used “reverse genetics” to
identify the defect in chronic granulomatous disease (1441; 1442). Note: “Reverse genetics” is an approach
to discover the function of a gene by analyzing the phenotypic effects of
specific engineered gene sequences. This investigative process proceeds in the
opposite direction of so-called forward genetic
screens of classical genetics.
Etienne-Emile
Baulieu (FR), Ilse Lasnitzki (FR), and Paul Robel (FR) found that rat prostate
explants in organ culture were able to metabolize tritiated-testosterone to
dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and other 5 alpha-reduced metabolites. DHT, not
testosterone (T), accumulated in cell nuclei. DHT stimulated cell proliferation
to a greater extent than (T). Hence, (T) was a prohormone converted in situ to active metabolite(s) (99; 100).
Alton I.
Sutnick (US), W. Thomas London (US), Betty Jane S. Gerstley (US), Malcolm M.
Cronlund (US), and Baruch S. Blumberg (US) searched for a reason that the
frequency of anicteric hepatitis associated with Australia antigen is
high in patients with Down's syndrome in large institutions (27.7%) and is low
in patients without this syndrome in the same institutions (3.2%). It is rare
in patients with Down's syndrome in small institutions (1.5%) and absent in
newborn patients and those who are not institutionalized. They concluded that
findings are best explained by the operation of an environmental factor,
probably infectious, present in the large institutions, and a host
susceptibility factor present in association with Down's syndrome (1630).
Gail Lorenz Miller (US) and Jean E. Wilson
(US) developed tumor-specific cytotoxic heterologous antiserum against human
cancer cells (1162).
James Edward
Cleaver (GB-US) observed that xeroderma
pigmentosum cells are defective in unscheduled DNA synthesis and in repair
synthesis of UV-irradiated DNA (311).
Tomisaku
Kawasaki (JP) saw his first case of Kawasaki
disease in January 1961 and published his first report in Japanese in 1967 (921). Note: Kawasaki disease is a condition that
causes inflammation in the walls of medium-sized arteries throughout the body,
including the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart muscle. Kawasaki disease is also called mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome
because it also affects lymph nodes, skin, and the mucous membranes inside the
mouth, nose and throat. It is an autoimmune disease suspiciously like infantile
polyarteritis of which the specific cause is unknown.
Jean Berger
(FR) and Nicole Hinglais (FR) described a renal syndrome prevalent in males,
characterized by glomerulonephritis associated with hematuria, extensive
mesangial IgA deposits (the characteristic pathologic feature), and a variety
of glomerular lesions. It is believed to be the most common form of primary
glomerular disease throughout the world (125). It is
often called Berger’s disease.
Robert Ho
Man Kwok (CN-US) described dizziness and the sensation of burning in the face
and chest due to monosodium glutamate used in food (Chinese restaurant
syndrome) (981).
Max Samter
(DE-US) and Ray F. Beers, Jr. (US) reported, “The clinical triad of nasal
polyposis, bronchial asthma, and life-threatening reactions to acetylsalicylic
acid is a disease entity, not a chance cluster of allergic symptoms and
represents, in fact, the prototype of a syndrome that has not been previously
described and deserves recognition.” This is referred to as aspirin idiosyncrasy syndrome (1464).
Douglas W.
Wilmore (US) and Stanley J. Dudrick (US) oversaw the feeding of all nutrients
to an infant exclusively by vein for 44 days; normal growth and development
occurred (1818).
A modern
technique of using an open skull flap in prefrontal leucotomy was used on patients
at the combined neurosurgical unit of King’s College, Guy’s Hospital, and
Maudsley Hospital in London.
John
Logothetis (GR) reported on the long-term evaluation of convulsive seizures
following prefrontal lobotomy (1062).
Henn Kutt
(US) and Fletcher McDowell (US) explained management of epilepsy with
diphenylhydantoin sodium along with dosage regulation for problem patients (980).
Bruce Sherman
McEwen (US), Jay M. Weiss (US), and Leslie S. Schwartz (US) reported that when
rats were given intraperitoneal injections of radioactive corticosterone there
was a higher uptake and longer retention of the corticosterone by the septum
and hippocampus regions of the brain (1130).
Donald G.
Lawrence (CA-NL-CA) and Henricus G.J.M. Kuypers (NL-US-NL-GB) showed that the
capacity for independent movements of the digits was permanently lost after a
complete, bilateral lesion of the corticospinal system. These studies also
revealed that the brainstem pathways contribute to fundamentally different
aspects of motor control, with one set of pathways (the ventromedial system)
involved in the control of head, trunk and girdle movements, while the other,
lateral set of fibers control movements of the extremity such as reach and
grasp (1003; 1004).
John
Charnley (GB) and Joseph A. Dupont (GB) developed the technique for total hip
replacement and pioneered arthrodeses (fusing joint surfaces) for the knee and
hip (292; 474).
Frederick R.
Cobb (US), Sarah D. Blumenschein (US), Will Camp Sealy (US), John P. Boineau
(US), Galen S. Wagner (US), and Andrew G. Wallace (US)
developed the first successful surgical
treatment for cardiac arrhythmias (316; 357).
James C.
Hogg (CA), Peter T. Macklem (CA), and William M. Thurlbeck (CA) determined the
site and nature of airway obstruction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD). When
the resistance within the human lung's small airways (<2 mm in diameter) was tested at post mortem,
lungs with COPD exhibited a resistance 4- to 40-fold higher than that of normal
lungs. Bronchographic and histologic studies showed that the resistance was
increased because of mucus plugging, narrowing, and obliteration of the small
airways. They noted that most of the small airways could be damaged or
destroyed before symptoms occur and before any of the conventional tests of
lung function—measurements of airway resistance—show loss of function (786).
William Howard Wallace Inman (GB) and Martin P. Vessey (GB) performed a
study in which women who died from various types of thromboembolism in the
United Kingdom during 1966 were practice-matched with healthy women. It
revealed a significant excess of oral contraceptive use among those dying from
cerebral thrombosis or pulmonary embolism (832).
Philip E. Sartwell (US), AlfonseT. Masi (US), Federico G. Arthes (US),
Gerald R. Greene (US), and Helen
E. Smith (US) made a case-control study of 175 women aged 15-44,
hospitalized with idiopathic thromboembolism, and 175 matched hospital patients
as controls. By interview, the relative risk of thrombosis for users of oral
contraceptives within the month preceding onset was found to be 4.4 (1472).
Adrian
Kantrowitz (US), Steinar Tjonneland (US), Jesse C. Krakauer (US), Paul S. Freed
(US), Steven J. Phillips (US), Adrian N. Butner (US), William Z. Yahr (US),
Menachem Shapiro (US), Dov Jaron (US), and Jacques L. Sherman, Jr. (US)
pioneered the clinical use of intra-aortic balloon pumping (899; 900).
William K.
Hass (US), William S. Fields (US), Richard R. North (US), Irvin I. Kricheff
(US), Norman E. Chase (US), and Raymond B. Bauer (US) made complete four-vessel
examinations of 80% of their 4,748 patients with cerebrovascular insufficiency.
Although the primary purpose was localization of surgically accessible
extracranial lesions, intracranial studies were also obtained in a high
percentage of cases. The overall grave complication rate was 1.2%. A test of
interinstitutional comparability of x-ray interpretation revealed greatest
agreement when lesions compromised more than 50% of the arterial lumen (724).
Theodor
Kolobow (US), Warren Myron Zapol (US), Jean Elizabeth Shaw Pierce (US), Ambrose
F. Keeley (US), Robert L. Replogle (US), and April Haller (US) achieved partial
extracorporeal gas-exchange in alert newborn lambs. They delivered premature
fetal lambs connected to an extracorporeal membrane oxygenator by umbilical
cord and placed in a tank of artificial amniotic fluid with a membrane
artificial lung, perfused via an A-V shunt for periods of up to 96 hours (964). This has
been called "artificial placentation."
James
Maxwell Glover Wilson (GB) and Gunner Jungner (SE) descrbed the principles of a
screening program that formed the basis of many medical diagnoses (1821).
M.Irene
Ferrer (US) found that certain clinical states can be grouped into a syndrome
resulting from a failing sinoatrial (SA) node. One or more of the following
symptoms appears: persistent, severe, and unexpected sinus bradycardia;
cessation of sinus rhythm for short intervals with other rhythms supervening;
long periods of sinus arrest without rescue rhythm, which produces cardiac
arrest; untreated chronic atrial fibrillation with slow ventricular rate; no
sinus rhythm after cardioversion; SA exit block. Symptoms spring from
hypoperfusion of vital organs (536).
Hugh H.
Bentall (GB) and Antony De Bono (MT) were the first to describe the
technique of composite graft replacement of the ascending
aorta and aortic valve, with reimplantation of the coronary
arteries (124).
John Brereton
Barlow (ZA), Paul Marchand (ZA), Wendy A. Pocock (ZA), Michael G.S. Denny (ZA),
Chris K. Bosman (ZA), and J.W. Craig Cochrane (ZA) reaffirmed that late
systolic murmurs and mid-systolic clicks are intracardiac in origin (86-90).
Norman
Geschwind (US) and Walter Levitsky (US) discovered that in most human brains,
the planum temporale is much larger
in the left hemisphere than in the right. This was in accord with previous
knowledge that the left hemisphere controls language (612).
Charles
Flanc (GB), Vijay Vir Kakkar (GB) and Martin B.T. Clarke (GB) investigated the
use of 125-iodine labeled fibrinogen as a diagnostic tool in established
thrombosis when the patients presented with suggestive symptoms and signs. The
validity of their findings was confirmed by phlebography (557).
Martin L.
Cody (US) showed that in grassland bird communities, ecological segregation
occurs by dint of species using different habitats, feeding at different
heights, or foraging in different ways with ± dissimilar morphologies. Although
the relative importance of one or another means of segregation differs with
vegetation structure, the species at different sites show comparable limiting
similarity in resource use. Since these patterns apply to bird communities over
a variety of habitats both within and between continents, they provide evidence
for convergent evolution and parallel selection, via resource competition, for
similar levels of ecological divergence within communities (318).
Susumu Ohno
(JP-US), Ulrich Wolf (DE), and Niels Atkin (GB) presented strong circumstantial
evidence to suggest that evolution from the fishes to the mammals was propelled
primarily by gene duplication (1274).
1969
“Science is
wonderfully equipped to answer the question ‘How?’ but it gets terribly
confused when you ask the question ‘Why?” Erwin Chargaff, Columbia Forum.
“Twelve days
ago, I reached the age conventionally regarded as the allotted span of human
life…. I am an old man and…in a certain sense I am immortal. Nearly seventy-one years ago a genetic programme came
into being in the zygote—the newly fertilized egg—from which there developed
that fantastic four-dimensional clone of cells in spacetime, which is, has
been, and always [will] be ME.” Frank Macfarlane Burnet (234).
"But, even for cancer, there is only one prime cause.
Summarized in a few words, the prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the
respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar. All
normal body cells meet their energy needs by respiration of oxygen, whereas
cancer cells meet their energy needs in great part by fermentation." Otto
Heinrich Warburg (1760).
"You
can't always get what you want. But if you try, sometimes you find, you get
what you need." lyrics by Keith Richards (GB) and Mick Jagger (GB)
Alfred Day
Hershey (US), Max Ludwig Henning Delbrück (DE-US) and Salvador Edward Luria
(IT-US) were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their
discoveries concerning the replication mechanism and the genetic structure of
viruses.
Klaus Weber
(DE) and Mary Jane Osborn (US) popularized the reliable method of molecular
weight determinations by dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1774).
Ulrich K.
Laemmli (CH) improved this technique, which has now become a very popular
method for polypeptide analysis and characterization (987).
H. Russel Hulett (US), William A.
Bonner (US), Janet Barrett (US), and Leonard A. Herzenberg (US) developed a
system for high-speed sorting of fluorescent cells with which they were able to
sort mouse spleen cells from Chinese hamster ovarian cells after development of
fluorochromasia. Highly fluorescent fractions separated after similar treatment
from mouse spleen cells immunized to sheep erythrocytes were enriched in
antibody-producing cells by factors of 4 to 10 (819).
Michael H. Julius (US), Tohru
Masuda (US), and Leonard A. Herzenberg (US) obtained viable and functional
populations of antigen-binding cells enriched up to 500-fold from primed
spleen-cell suspensions by fluorescent labeling and by a new electronic cell
sorter that sorts viable cells according to fluorescence. Concomitantly, populations
largely depleted of antigen-binding cells were obtained. While neither
population alone is capable of a full adoptive secondary response when injected
into irradiated recipients, a reconstituted mixture restores the full response
of the unfractionated spleen cells (881).
Edgar Haber (US), Theresa Koerner (US), Lot B. Page (US), Bernard Kliman
(US), and André Purnode (BE) applied radioimmunoassay, with a highly specific
antiserum to angiotensin I, to the determination of the plasma enzyme renin. Plasma renin activity was shown to vary in normal individuals with sodium
intake, posture, and the administration of diuretics. The values of renin activity obtained by immunoassay
of angiotensin I correspond closely to those observed by bioassay in similar
metabolic studies but provide an advantage of relative simplicity, specificity,
and reproducibility (691).
Mark R.
Haussler (US) and Anthony W. Norman (US) provided evidence for the existence of
an acidic protein(s) or protein portion of a more complex molecule which has a
high affinity for binding non-covalently a biologically active metabolite of
vitamin D. Characterization of the crude receptor fraction showed that it
contains significant amounts of RNA and that it may exist in multiple forms,
i.e., a 50,000-70,000 and a >200,000 molecular weight species. The binding
capacity of the receptor fraction for the metabolite is saturated after
administration of a physiological dose of the parent vitamin D (730).
Norman G.
Anderson (US) presented a new microanalytical system that employs a rotor
containing 15 cuvets spinning past a beam of light. The signal is displayed on
an oscilloscope, and a peak is observed continuously for each cuvet. Standards,
samples, and reagents are placed in a central loading disc, and all solutions
moved out into the cuvets by centrifugal force. Minimum volume to fill the
cuvets is 200 λ. By using the Weichselbaum biuret reagent for proteins, 15
analyses may be completed in as little as 30 secs after the rotor is started.
The data are obtained photographically (34).
Stan
Sajdera (US) and Vincent C. Hascall, Jr. (US) developed a method for the
extraction and purification of proteoglycans from cartilage. They showed that
cartilage proteoglycans in the dissociative extracts reformed aggregates (722; 1457). They did not know that hyaluronan was
present and necessary for reformation.
Dick
K. Heinegard (SE) and Vincent C. Hascall, Jr. (US) defined the role of
hyaluronan and the link protein in forming the cartilage proteoglycan
(aggrecan) aggregates. They showed that two proteins were bound to hyaluronan.
One protein was the link protein, and the other was derived from a domain of
the core protein of aggrecan, now referred to as the G1 domain. These results
led to a model for the proteoglycan aggregates in which the link protein and
the G1 domain were bound to each other as well as to hyaluronan (736).
Thomas H.
Jukes (US) and Charles R. Cantor (US) discovered a way to examine molecular
evolution by comparing the polypeptide chains of homologous proteins. Cantor
devised a computer program to calculate the mean number of nucleotide
substitutions that has occurred in a nucleotide sequence over time. The
mathematical equation upon which the program relies assumes that all single
base changes (nucleotide substitutions) are equally probable and that the
frequencies of all four bases in DNA are the same.
The two
genes containing the sequences to produce alpha hemoglobin and beta hemaglobin
diverged from a common ancestor at least 400 million years ago. Humans carry in
every red blood cell the evidence that we are in a line of descent from an
ancestor who lived 400 million years ago (878).
Meir Lahav
(IL), Ted H. Chiu (US), Charles J. Waechter (US), John J. Lucas (US), and
William Joseph Lennarz (US), based on their investigations, reasoned that in
eukaryotic systems, as in bacterial systems, activated lipid-linked sugars
mediate the synthesis of glycose-containing macromolecules that are associated
with the membranous components of the cell (990; 1737).
Bernd Gutte
(US), and Robert Bruce Merrifield (US), Ralph Hirshmann (US), Ruth F. Nutt
(US), Daniel F. Veber (US), Ronald A. Vitali (US), Sandor L. Varga (US),
Theodore A. Jacob (US), Frederick W. Holly (US), and Robert G. Denkewalter (US)
accomplished the in vitro synthesis
of ribonuclease A (687; 688; 774).
Elias James
Corey (US) Ned M. Weinshenker (US), Thomas K. Schaaf (US), Willy Huber (US),
Urs Koelliker (US), Ryoji Noyori (JP), and Xue-Min Cheng (US)
developed a methodology for the synthesis of the hormones prostaglandin F2a
(PGF2a) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (349-353).
Norio Aimi
(JP), Minoru Inaba (JP), Minroe Watanabe (JP), Shoji Shibata (US), Miyuki
Kaneda (JP), and Yoichi Iitaka (JP) determined that the root of the Chinese
peony, Paeonia lactiflora, is the
source of paeoniflorin (15; 896).
Weici Wang
(US), and Gerhard Eisenbrand (DE) reported that paeoniflorin exhibits sedative,
anticoagulant, and anti-inflammatory activity (1759).
Takuro
Kisaki (JP) and Nathan Edward Tolbert (US) contributed to the discovery of
photorespiration by tracing the pathway into peroxisomes. They found that
glycolate is converted to glyoxylate in peroxisomes by the action of glycolate oxidase, which consumes oxygen
and releases hydrogen peroxide. Catalase
recycles the hydrogen peroxide (951).
Joe M.
McCord (US) and Irwin Fridovich (US) isolated superoxide dismutase (SOD) from bovine erythrocytes (1125).
Bernard B.
Keele, Jr. (US), Joe M. McCord (US), and Irwin Fridovich (US) isolated superoxide dismutase (SOD) from Escherichia coli (923).
All the
eukaryotic SODs contained copper and zinc whereas the prokaryotic SODs
contained manganese.
Joe M.
McCord (US), Bernard B. Keele, Jr. (US), and Irwin Fridovich (US) surveyed
microorganisms and found that aerobes contain abundant superoxide dismutase (SOD), whereas obligate anaerobes contain
little or none. They suggested that SOD might have evolved to prevent unwanted
oxidations within the cell (1126).
Richard A.
Weisiger (US) and Irwin Fridovich (US) isolated superoxide dismutase from mitochondria. While looking at the SOD of
chicken liver, they noticed that it contained two types of SOD, one localized
to the mitochondria and the other to the cytosol. Surprisingly, the
mitochondrial SOD contained manganese. The differences between the two
dismutases and their purification are discussed (1785). The
similarity between mitochondrial and bacterial SODs suggested that mitochondria
evolved from aerobic prokaryotes, which entered an endocellular symbiotic
relationship with a prokaryote.
Fred J.
Yost, Jr. (US) and Irwin Fridovich (US) isolated an iron containing SOD from Escherichia coli (1861).
Howard M.
Steinman (US) and Robert L. Hill (US) determined the amino acid sequence of the
first 29 residues from the amino terminus of the mitochondrial manganese
dismutase, the bacterial manganese dismutase, and the bacterial iron dismutase (1594). The high degree of sequence
identity among the bacterial and mitochondrial dismutases served as further
support for the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria.
Howard M.
Steinman (US), Vishweshwar R. Naik
(US), John L. Abernathy (US), and Robert L. Hill (US) determined the complete
amino acid sequence of the CuZn dismutase (1595).
Hosni M.
Hassan (EG-US) and Irwin Fridovich (US) showed that the herbicide paraquat
(methyl viologen) caused a marked increase in the rate of biosynthesis of
Mn-SOD. The cells that had augmented levels of Mn-SOD also showed an increase
in resistance to the toxicities of oxygen and the quinone streptonigrin (725).
Thomas W.
Kirby (US), Jack R. Lancaster (US), and Irwin Fridovich (US) isolated and
characterized the iron-containing superoxide
dismutase of Methanobacterium
bryantii (949).
Choh Hao Li
(CN-US), Jonathan S. Dixon (US), and Wan-Kyng Liu (US) determined the primary
structure of human growth hormone
(HGH) from the pituitary (1036).
John W.
Olney (US) showed that glutamate, when administered subcutaneously to infant
mice, destroys neurons in certain regions of the brain, including the endocrine
hypothalamus, and that this caused animals to grow up with obesity and multiple
endocrine abnormalities (1282).
Denton A.
Cooley (US), Domingo Liotta (AR), Grady L. Hallman (US), Robert D. Bloodwell
(US), Robert D. Leachman (US), and John D. Milam (US) implanted a total
artificial heart designed by Domingo Liotta into a human. The device served as
a "bridge" for cardiac transplantation until a donor heart was found,
64 hours. The cardiac transplant functioned for an additional 32 hours until
the patient died of pneumonia (337).
Robert J.
DeLange (US), Douglas M. Fambrough (US), Emil L. Smith (US), and James
Frederick Bonner (US) showed that histone IVs from peas and cows have
essentially the same amino acid sequence. This finding suggested that the
sequence of histone IV has been conserved from a time before plants and animals
diverged, possibly close to a billion years (417; 418).
Gerald
Maurice Edelman (US), Bruce A. Cunningham (US), W. Einar Gall (US), Paul D.
Gottlieb (US), Urs Rutishauser (US), and Myron J. Waxdal (US) determined the
complete amino acid sequence of the immunoglobulin gamma (IgG) molecule (482).
Donald
Metcalf (AU) discovered colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) (1151).
Antony W.
Burgess (AU), James Camakaris (AU), and Donald Metcalf (AU) purified
colony-stimulating factor, which specifically stimulates mouse bone marrow
cells to proliferate in vitro and
generate colonies of granulocytes, or macrophages, or both. Analysis indicated
that there was a single protein component. All the colony-stimulating activity
was coincident with the protein band. At high concentrations (>20 ng/ml) the
factor stimulated the formation of granulocytic, macrophage, and mixed colonies
from C57BL mouse bone marrow cells. As the concentration of purified
colony-stimulating factor was decreased, the frequency of colonies containing
granulocytes also decreased. At low concentrations of colony-stimulating factor
(~70 pg/ml) only macrophage colonies were stimulated (229).
Antony W.
Burgess (AU) and Donald Metcalf (AU) and identified granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor
(GM-CSF) (230).
They
identified granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and macrophage colony
stimulating factor (231).
Donald
Metcalf (AU) and Nicos A. Nicola (AU) discovered multi-colony stimulating
factor (Multi-CSF) (1152). These
agents are used to treat patients with cancer and diseases of blood cell
formation.
Graham C.
Brophy (AU), Janardanan Mohandas
(AU), Michael B. Slaytor (AU), Sever Sternhell (AU), Thomas R. Watson (AU), and
L.A. Wilson (AU) determined the structure of carpanone, a lignin found in the carpano tree (204).
Koiti Titani
(JP), Tomotaka Shinoda (JP), and Frank William Putnam (US) determined the amino
acid sequence and location of the disulfide bridges in human kappa Bence-Jones
protein Ag. They determined the 214-amino acid sequence by analyzing the
sequences of tryptic and chymotryptic peptides from the carboxymethylated
protein, the aminoethylated protein, and the disulfide bridge peptides.
Comparing this sequence to those of other known human kappa Bence-Jones
proteins, they discovered that, “these proteins differ in many positions in the
amino-terminal or variable half of the molecule but appear to have an identical
sequence in the carboxy-terminal or constant half except for a substitution at
position 191 that is correlated with the Inv genetic factor" (1680).
Koiti Titani
(JP), Maurice Wikler (US), Tomotaka Shinoda (JP), and Frank William Putnam (US)
determined the sequence and location of the disulfide bridges in the human lambda Bence-Jones
protein Sh. They then compared this sequence to the sequences of other human lambda Bence-Jones proteins and confirmed their earlier observations with
the kappa proteins.
Namely, that the amino-terminal half of the protein has great variation in
sequence while the carboxyl-terminal portion of the molecule has a constant
sequence. They also noted that Sh is homologous to both the human and mouse kappa chains,
indicating a common ancestral gene (1681).
Susan E.
Lowey (US), Henry S. Slater (US), Alan G. Weeds (GB), Herman M. Baker (US),
Gerhard Frank (CH), Harry Baker (GB), and Dennis Risby (US) characterized the myosin molecule (1069; 1070; 1778).
Ivan Rayment (US) and Hazel M. Holden (US) determined the
three-dimensional structure of myosin,
a protein critical to generating force and motion in nearly all living things (1390).
Mark R. Adelman (US) and Edwin William Taylor (US) isolated actin and myosin from a non-muscle source, the slime mold Physarum (7; 8).
Bruce S.
Hudson (US), William B. Upholt (US), Joseph Devinny (US), and Jerome R.
Vinograd (US) discovered that bacterial F factor DNA is circular. This was made
possible by the simultaneous discovery that ethidium will intercalate into
linear DNA but not into circular DNA. If ethidium is added to a solution
containing both linear and circular DNA molecules of the same overall base
composition, and hence of the same intrinsic buoyant density, the density of
the linear molecules will be reduced much more than that of the circular
molecules. Linear and circular DNA molecules of equal intrinsic density can be
separated by centrifuging their mixture in a CsCl density-gradient solution
containing an excess of ethidium. Vinograd realized that, during the normal
procedures for extracting DNA from Escherichia
coli, the smaller circular plasmid DNA remains circular, whereas the larger
circular bacterial chromosome is sheared into several linear fragments (815).
R. Bruce
Nicklas (US) and Carol A. Koch (US) found that kinetochore reorientation is the
critical process ensuring normal chromosome distribution. Mal-oriented kinetochore-to-pole
connections are corrected in a tension-dependent mechanism. They showed that
the kinetochore-to-pole connection of a ‘maternal’ chromosome is stabilized by
using a micro-needle to pull on the ‘paternal’ chromosome attached to it (1235).
Raymond E. Lockard (US) and Jerry B. Lingrel (US) isolated a 9 S
RNA from rabbit reticulocytes and deduced
it to be the mRNA for globin. This was the first
identification of a eukaryotic mRNA
(1061).
John Bertrand Gurdon (GB), Charles D. Lane (GB), Hugh R. Woodland
(GB), and Gerard Marbaix (BE) injected globin mRNA into the cytoplasm of Xenopus laevis
oocytes and demonstrated the synthesis of rabbit globin (685).
Richard A.
Finkelstein (US) and Joseph J. LoSpalluto (US) isolated, purified, tested and
named choleragen, the exotoxin of Vibrio cholerae (541).
Monsanto
Chemical Company introduced the herbicide alachlor,
an acetanilide, useful in cotton (Gossypium
spp.), soybeans (Glycine max), and
peanuts (Arachis hypogaea). ref
Hildegard
Michalke (US) and Hans Bremer (US) exposed Escherichia
coli strain B cells to ultraviolet light ranging from 500 to 10,000 erg/mm2.
They found that: (1) a synthesis of RNA molecules is terminated, and RNA polymerase molecules are liberated
at the site of ultraviolet lesions on the DNA. (2) A dose of 1000 erg/mm2
produced about one transcription-terminating lesion per 1000 DNA bases. (3)
Within 45 minutes after irradiation (dose greater than 1000 erg/mm2)
the RNA synthesis rate is not significantly increased by photo- or dark repair.
(4) With increasing doses of ultraviolet the rate of RNA chain initiation is
reduced. (5) Most fragments and some complete molecules of ribosomal RNA
synthesized after ultraviolet irradiation are broken down within 45 minutes
after synthesis (1156).
Roman B.
Khesin (RU), Zhosefine M. Gorlenko (RU), Michael F. Shemyakin (RU), Sergey L.
Stvolinsky (RU), Sophia Z. Mindlin (RU), and Tamilla S. Ilyina (RU) found
evidence that the catalytic site of RNA
polymerase and its ability to bind DNA both reside in its large component.
The small subunit is believed to have a regulatory function and activate the
large component (940).
Richard R.
Burgess (US), Andrew A. Travers (US), John J. Dunn (US), Ekkehard K.F. Bautz
(US), William C. Summers (US), and Ruth B. Siegel (US) purified
Escherichia coli RNA polymerase on a phosphocellulose column and asked which
combination of fractions, and then which factor, conferred transcriptional
activity to the core enzyme on T4 phage DNA. They identified that the selective
fraction was a protein (they named it sigma) and discovered
that some bacteriophages, including T-even and T7 coliphages, alter the sigma
factor of RNA polymerase in such a
way that instead of recognizing host DNA it recognizes viral DNA (232; 1621).
Andrew A.
Travers (US) and Richard R. Burgess (US) found that once initiation of RNA
synthesis occurs the sigma factor, which is required for the initiation of RNA
synthesis, is released from the RNA
polymerase to be re-used in another initiation event (1694).
Andrew A.
Travers (US) showed that some of the products of viral early genes helped endow RNA
polymerase with specificity for viral genes (1693).
Joan Weliky
Conaway (US), Jeanene P. Hanley (US), Karla Pfeil Garrett (US), and Ronald C.
Conaway (US) fractionated rat liver and identified five distinct enzyme
fractions that were essential for specific transcription: alpha, beta gamma,
delta, epsilon and tau. Four of these could be replaced by purified proteins
from rat liver: TFIIB (alpha), TFIIF (beta gamma), TFIIE (epsilon) and TFIIH
(delta). With the purification of the final factor, TFIIE, and having in hand
purified pol II, TFIIB, TFIIF and TFIIH, as well as recombinant TATA-binding
protein (TBP), it was possible to show that promoter-specific transcription
could be reconstituted in vitro with
purified factors. With the purification of the final factor, TFIIE, and having
in hand purified pol II, TFIIB, TFIIF and TFIIH, as well as recombinant
TATA-binding protein (TBP), it was possible to show that promoter-specific
transcription could be reconstituted in
vitro with purified factors. Crucially, this allowed the definition of the
minimal transcriptional machinery required for promoter-specific transcription
in eukaryotes by pol II (328; 329).
Brian David Dynlacht (US), Timothy Hoey (US), and Robert Tjian
(US) showed that Drosophila cells
contain a complex of proteins, which they termed co-activators, that associate with the TATA-binding protein and are
important for activation in vitro by
specific transcription factors, such as Sp1 and NTF1 (479).
Young-Joon
Kim (US), Stefan Bjorklund (US), Yang Li (US), Michael H. Sayre (US), and Roger
David Kornberg (US) purified the Mediator complex from yeast. They were able to reconstitute
activated transcription in vitro with
purified components, finally demonstrating the elusive Mediator activity. They found that the Mediator is a huge complex of about 20 subunits that associates
with RNA polymerase II. Suppressors
of RNA polymerase B (SRB) proteins
are components of the Mediator complex (942).
Richard Marc
Losick (US) and Abraham L. Sonenshein (US) found that as Bacillus subtilis enters sporulation a sigma-like factor is altered
such that RNA polymerase is endowed
with increased affinity for genes of sporulation
(1067).
Don J.
Brenner (US), George R. Fanning (US), Karl E. Johnson (US), Ronald V. Citarella
(US), and Stanley Falkow (US) determined DNA relatedness by reacting denatured,
labeled DNA fragments of one organism with similarly prepared unlabeled
fragments of another (189). Later, the
definition of a species was made based on ≥70% DNA-DNA relatedness and a
change in melting temperature ≤5°C. This process now allows an ideal
taxonomy, i.e., one based on bacterial phylogeny.
Wallace L.
McKeehan (US) and Boyd Hardesty (US) purified and partially characterized aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid binding
enzyme. It catalyzes the guanosine triphosphate-dependent binding of
phenylalanyl transfer RNA to ribosomes in the sequence of polyuridylic acid,
has activity as a ribosome and aminoacyl
transfer RNA-dependent guanosine triphosphatase, and is required for the
synthesis of peptides from aminoacyl transfer RNA (1133).
James A. Shapiro (US), Lorne A.
MacHattie (US), Larry Eron (US), Garret Ihler (US), Karin Ippen (US), Jonathan
Roger Beckwith (US), Rita Arditti (US), William S. Reznikoff (US), and Ronnie
MacGillivray (US) using an electron microscope became the first to see a
gene—the lacZ gene (1512).
Takashi
Kasai (US) and Ekkehard K.F. Bautz (US), using T4 bacteriophage and Escherichia coli strain BB, found that
the synthesis of endolysin messenger RNA is under the control of an initiation
site at or near the N-terminus of the endolysin
gene (904).
Joan Elaine Argetsinger Steitz (US), Karen S. Jakes (US), and Deborah A.
Steege (US) showed
how during polypeptide synthesis the ribosomal RNA is used to initiate
translation at the start site of mRNA (1596-1598).
Izuru
Yamamoto (JP), Ella C. Kimmel (US), and John Edward Casida (US) reported insect
resistance to pyrethrin as due to an oxidation, occurring at the transmethyl
group of the isobutenyl side-chain of the chrysanthemic acid (1853).
John B.
Sprague (CA) recommends the advantageous methods for toxicity tests with fish,
following a review. Fisheries biologists should adopt a combination of existing
techniques including pharmacological ones. Investigators should use thresholds
of effect, probit analysis, confidence limits, and tests for significant
differences (1579).
Gerald M.
Edelman (US), Bruce A. Cunningham (US), W. Einar Gall (US), Paul D. Gottlieb
(US), Urs Rutishauser (US), and Myron J. Waxdal (US) determined the complete
amino acid sequence of a human gamma G1 immunoglobulin (Eu) and the arrangement
of all of the disulfide bonds has been established (482).
J. Michael
Kehoe (US) and Michel Fougereau (US) suggested that the constant heavy 2 (CH2)
region of the antibody molecule could bind complement (925).
Viktor A.
Bokisch (US), Hans Joachim Müller-Eberhard (DE-US-DE), and Charles G. Cochrane
(US) isolated a fragment (C3a) of the third component of human complement
containing anaphylatoxin and chemotactic activity and described an anaphylatoxin
inactivator of human serum. This was the first time that a specific protein in
the complement cascade was purified (157).
Jack A. Lucy
(GB), Quet Fah Ahkong (CA), F.C. Cramp (GB), Derek Fisher (GB), and J. Isobel
Howell (GB) pioneered in methods to induce cell fusion and the formation of
hybrid cells (12; 368; 806; 1076).
Peter
Perlmann (SE), Hedvig Perlmann (SE), Hans Joachim Müller-Eberhard (DE-US-DE),
and Jorge A. Manni (AR) noted that cytotoxic effects of leukocytes could be
triggered by complement bound to target cells (1327).
Ivan Maurice
Roitt (GB), Melvyn Francis Greaves (US), Giorgio Torrigiani (GB), Jonathan
Brostoff (GB), and John H.L. Playfair (GB) coined the terms B cells and T
cells. B stood for bursa, and T for thymus. B cells soon came to mean bone
marrow-derived cells (1424).
Kevin John
Lafferty (AU) and Michael A. Jones (AU) in their studies of the graft versus
host reaction concluded that the ability
of an animal to distinguish between "self" and "not-self"
components may operate at two distinct levels; one involves the recognition of
foreign antigens, and the other the recognition of cells derived from
genetically related but not identical animals (988).
Martin C. Raff (CA-GB) determined that theta isoantigen can be used as a
marker of thymus-derived lymphocytes in mice. To establish that theta is such a
marker in man, it is necessary to demonstrate that there is a discrete
population of peripheral lymphocytes which carry the antigen and that these
cells are thymus-dependent (1376).
Pieter D.
Nieuwkoop (NL) and Elze C. Boterenbrood (NL) demonstrated that the mesoderm is
induced from ectoderm, under instructions from endoderm. By excising different
portions of Ambystoma mexicanum
(axolotl) blastulae, and culturing them alone or in combination with other
portions, Nieuwkoop concluded that the mesoderm develops from the ectodermal
(animal) part of the embryo, but requires contact with the endodermal (vegetal)
part to do so (166; 1237).
Jonathan M.
W. Slack (GB), Barry G. Darlington (GB), Joan K. Heath (AU), and Susan F.
Godsave (NL) published the results of testing various growth factors on
ectoderm explants from Xenopus
blastulae. They found that, at low concentrations, basic fibroblast growth
factor (bFGF) could induce mesoderm, as judged by histological criteria (1553).
David
Kimelman (US) and Marc Kirschner (US) published the results of similar
experiments. These authors used a different indicator of mesoderm induction —
the levels of mRNA encoding cardiac actin
— but they, too, found that bFGF can induce mesoderm. They also discovered that
transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is required to boost cardiac actin expression to the level seen
normally in embryos. Moreover, they found that FGF mRNA is present in early
embryos (943).
James C.
Smith (GB), Brenda M.J. Price (GB), Kristien van Nimmen (BE), and Danny
Huylebroeck (BE) discovered that in mammals, a likely mesoderm inducer is
activin A — a protein that was best known until then for its roles in adult
organisms, but which was now shown to have a similar sequence and activity to a
member of the Xenopus TGF-β
family that can induce mesoderm (1561).
David L.
Barker (US) and William P. Jencks (US) proposed that in enzyme catalyzed
reactions it might be possible to produce antibodies specific for the configuration
of the substrate in its transition state (84; 849).
Henry C.P.
Wu (US), Winfried Boos (DE), and Herman Moritz Kalckar (DK-US) isolated and
characterized a specific galactose-binding protein used to transport galactose
into Escherichia coli (1844).
Herman
Moritz Kalckar (DK-US), Thomas J. Silhavy (US), and Winfried Boos (DE) showed
that the galactose-binding protein is not only needed in transport but is also
needed in the chemotaxis of galactose (892).
Peter Eric
Braun (US), Norman S. Radin (US), Pierre J. Stoffyn (BE-US), Jordi Folch-Pi (ES-US),
David H. MacLennan (CA), Cecil C. Yip (CA), G.H. Iles (CA), and Philip Seeman
(CA) determined that eukaryotes (Eucarya) normally possess proteins containing
covalently bound long chain fatty acids (184; 1088; 1609).
Mutsuko
Nishihara (US), Norman Friedman (US), and H. Vasken-Aposhian (US) reported that
a group of bacteriophages, including Øe, contains 5-hydroxymethyluracil instead
of thymine in their DNA and that following infection they alter the pathway of
DNA production from host type to viral type (571; 1241).
Ruth Arnon
(IL) and Michael Sela (IL) demonstrated that conformation of a molecule could
be important to its antigenicity (46; 47).
Susumu Ito
(US) reported that one of the constant features of intestinal microvilli is the
so-called fuzz, glycocalyx, or surface coat,
which is composed of glycoprotein (837).
Marco
Baggiolini (CH), James Gerald Hirsch (US), Christian Rene de Duve (GB-BE-US),
Pierre L. Masson (BE), Joseph Felix Heremans (BE), Marilyn Gist Farquhar (US),
and Dorothy Ford Bainton (US) characterized the two types of granules present
in neutrophil polymorphonuclear leukocytes (63-65; 530).
H.C. Jones
(US), Ivan L. Roth (US), Walter M. Sanders III (US), Ian W. Sutherland (GB),
William D. Grant (GB), and John F. Wilkinson (GB) demonstrated carbohydrate
fibers as part of the capsule or slime layers of aquatic bacteria (662; 872). This layer
is now referred to as the glycocalyx.
Joseph
Grafton Gall (US) and Mary Lou Pardue (US) were the first to localize a
specific gene to a specific site on a chromosome. They used DNA-RNA
hybridization to locate the gene for producing rRNA in Xenopus laevis. These experiments represent the first application
of highly radioactive nucleic acid probes (RNA) to locate a complementary
region (DNA) along a chromosome (595; 1307). The Giemsa banding technique
also stained the regions to which the DNA probes annealed selectively. See, above.
Mary Lou
Pardue (US), Larry H. Kedes (US), Eric S. Weinberg (US), and Max Luciano
Birnstiel (CH), using Drosophila melanogaster polytene chromosomes,
visualized the location of histone genes on individual chromosomes (1308).
ElizabethB.
Robson (GB), Paul Emanuel Polani (IT-AT-GB), S.J. Dart (GB), Pete A. Jacobs
(GB), and James H. Renwick (GB) provided evidence for the probable assignment
of the alpha locus of haptoglobin to chromome 16 in man (1418).
Renato
Dulbecco (IT-US) described what he called topoinhibition,
the in vitro inhibition of DNA
synthesis seen in cells, which had established extensive contacts with each
other. The inhibition was released when a confluent layer was wounded (469; 470).
J. Isobel
Howell (GB) and Jack A. Lucy (GB) were the first to fuse plant protoplasts
using a chemical, lysolecithin, to promote the union (806).
Robin A.
Weiss (US) suggested the existence of an integrated retrovirus in normal chick
embryo cells (1791; 1792).
Robert
Joseph Huebner (US) and George Joseph Todaro (US) presented their hypothesis on
latent retroviruses and coined the term 'oncogene' (816).
Susan M.
Astrin (US), Harriet L. Robinson (US), Lyman B. Crittenden (US), Edward G. Buss
(US), Jim Wyban (US), and William S. Hayward (US) determined that numerous
separately integrated endogenous proviruses are present in the chicken genome (50).
Catherine D.
O'Connell (US) and Maurice Cohen (US) discovered that the human genome contains
endogenous retrovirus genes (1263).
Masao Ono
(US) determined that the haploid human genome contains approximately 50 copies
of the human endogenous retrovirus genes (HERV-K)
(1284).
Cristophe
Fraser (CA), R. Keith Humphries (CA), and Dixie L. Mager (CA) analyzed the chromosomal
distribution of a large family of human endogenous retrovirus-like sequences
termed RTVL-H. In situ hybridizations
suggested that these sequences are found on all human chromosomes (573).
Renato
Mariani-Costantini (IT), Toby M. Horn (US), and Robert Callahan (US) suggested
that the ancestral HERVII retrovirus(es) entered the genomes of Old World
anthropoids by infection after the divergence of New World monkeys
(platyrrhines) but before the evolutionary radiation of large hominoids (1110).
Roswitha
Lower (DE), Johannes Lower (DE), and Reinhard Kurth (DE) proposed that human
endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are very likely footprints of ancient germ-cell
infections. HERV sequences encompass about 1% of the human genome. HERVs have
retained the potential of other retroelements to retrotranspose and thus to
change genomic structure and function. The genomes of almost all HERV families
are highly defective (1068).
David J.
Griffiths (GB), Palle Villesen (DK), Lars Aagaard (DK), Carsten Wiuf (DK), and
Finn Skou Pedersen (DK) reported that approximately 8% of human DNA represents
fossil retroviral genomes. This does not include the LINE elements and other
retrotransposons scattered throughout the genome (673; 1730).
Charles A.
Mebus (US), Norman R. Underdahl (US), Marvin B. Rhodes (US), and Marvin J.
Twiehaus (US) discovered bovine rotavirus, the most common cause of neonatal
diarrhoea in calves (scours) (1138).
Eugene B.
Buynak (US), Robert E. Weibel (US), James E. Whitman (US), Joseph Stokes, Jr.
(US), and Maurice Ralph Hilleman (US) presented their combined live measles,
mumps, and rubella virus vaccines (246).
Charles
Novotny (US), Judith Carnahan (US), and Charles C. Brinton, Jr. (US) discovered
that F+ and Hfr bacteria possess a superficial filamentous
appendage, the F pilus, which is
absent from F- cells. Because Brinton found that removal of its F pilus by physical or chemical means
destroys the fertility of the donor cell until a new pilus has been generated,
he proposed that the F pilus serves
as a conjugation bridge (1258).
Oscar L.
Miller, Jr. (US) and Barbara R. Beatty (US) state that he presence of
extrachromosomal nucleoli in amphibian oocytes has permitted isolation and
electron microscopic observation of the genes coding for ribosomal RNA
precursor molecules. Visualization of these genes is possible because many
precursor molecules are simultaneously synthesized on each gene. Individual
genes are separated by stretches of DNA that apparently are not transcribed at
the time of synthesis of precursor rRNA in the extrachromosomal nucleoli (1167).
Gabriella
Augusti-Tocco (IT) and Gordon Hisashi Sato (US) adapted a mouse nerve cell
tumor (neuroblastoma) to tissue culture and isolated clones that were
electrically excitable and that extended nerve processes. This was the first
differentiated cell line to be isolated (53).
S. Ronald
Smithers (GB), Roland J. Terry (GB), and David J. Hockley (GB) demonstrated
that schistosomes absorb host antigens and, thus disguised, protect themselves
against immune attack (1567).
Jean P.
Nitsch (FR), Colette Nitsch (FR), and Brigit S. Norreel (FR) developed a
technique that made it possible to culture microspores of Nicotiana and Datura, to
double the chromosome number of their microspores, and to collect seeds from
the homozygous diploid plants within a 5-month period (1244-1247).
Simon H.P.
Maddrell (US) helped to establish the field of insect osmoregulation with his
elegant studies on the Malpighian tubules of Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera) (1090).
Scott Murphy
(US) and Frank H. Gardner (US) demonstrated the feasibility of storing blood
platelets at room temperature, revolutionizing platelet transfusion therapy (1213).
David G. Ashbaugh (US), Thomas L. Petty (US), D. Boyd Bigelow (US) and
Timothy M. Harris (US) defined the clinical syndrome of acute respiratory
distress in the adult both physiologically and pathologically. The use of
continuous positive-pressure breathing in treatment of these patients resulted
in a dramatic improvement in morbidity and mortality (49).
The Nocturnal Oxygen Therapy Trial Group (US) used continuous or
nocturnal oxygen therapy in hypoxemic
chronic obstructive lung disease: a clinical trial. They concluded that in hypoxemic chronic obstructive lung disease,
continuous oxygen therapy is associated with a lower mortality than is
nocturnal oxygen therapy (675).
James A.
Miller (US) and Elizabeth Cavert Miller (US) were the first to demonstrate that
normal metabolism can convert some harmless chemicals into cancer inducing
chemicals (1163).
Priscilla J.
Piper (GB) and John Robert Vane (GB) demonstrated the first association between
prostaglandin production and the actions of aspirin-like drugs (1345).
John Robert
Vane (GB) proposed that the mechanism of action of aspirin and the aspirin-like
drugs or non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is through their
inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis (1727).
William L.
Smith, Jr. (US) and William E.M. Lands (US) found that aspirin and indomethacin
blocks arachidonic acid-induced O2 uptake and concluded that these
drugs were blocking oxygenase activity. They also observed that the two drugs
act in a time-dependent manner, suggesting that they cause a chemical
modification of their target (1566).
Gerald J.
Roth (US), Nancy Stanford (US), and Philip W. Majerus (US) showed that the
acetyl group of aspirin is incorporated into a protein (1438).
Martin
Hemler (US), William E.M. Lands (US), and William L. Smith, Jr. (US) purified
the protein now known as prostaglandin
endoperoxide H synthase-1 (PGHS-1) or cyclooxygenase-1
(COX-1) (745).
David L. DeWitt (US), El-Harith A.
El-Harith (SA), Stacey A. Kraemer (US), Martha J. Andrews (US), Eveline F. Yao
(US), Robert L. Armstrong (US), and William L. Smith, Jr. (US) showed that
substitution of Ser-530 with alanine rendered the protein refractory toward
aspirin but had relatively little effect on the kinetic properties of the cyclooxygenase. They concluded that the
Ser-O-acetyl protrudes into the cyclooxygenase
active site thereby interfering with arachidonic acid binding (432). There is now general acceptance of the concept that these drugs
work by inhibition of the enzyme cyclooxygenase
(COX) or prostaglandin H2 synthase,
now known to have two isoforms, COX-l and COX-2.
Hans
Henriksen Ussing (DK), Cornelis L. Voûte (DK), R. Dirix (DK), Robert Nielsen
(DK), Kjeld Mollgard (DK), Karen Eskesen (DK), and Jong J. Lim (DK) made
important contributions to renal and electrolyte physiology and performed
ingenious studies on the transport and hormonal regulation of sodium and water
across isolated frog skin. This led to a new understanding of the transport
processes that are basic to the functioning of the human kidney (515-518; 1716-1718; 1734-1736).
Emil C.
Gotschlich (US), Irving Goldschneider (US), Teh Y. Liu (US), and Malcolm S.
Artenstein (US) developed a vaccine against Neisseria
meningitidi (635; 655; 656).
Maurice
Ralph Hilleman (US) and his colleagues rushed to manufacture a vaccine from the
new flu strain Type A2, Hong Kong. In four months, Merck had manufactured more
than nine million doses of vaccine (769).
David V.
Reynolds (US) described the analgesic effect produced by electrical stimulation
of the periaqueductal gray area (1405).
Gabor Szasz
(DE) developed a clinical method for determining the serum level of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. The
method is clinically valuable because some kidney and liver diseases cause
abnormal serum levels of this enzyme (57).
Robert
Joseph Huebner (US) and George Joseph Todaro (US) proposed the oncogene hypothesis to explain how RNA
viruses can cause human cancer. According to this model, infection of cells by
type C RNA viruses occurred millions of years ago during evolution. Every cell
is assumed to contain an oncogene, a
region of DNA that is normally repressed (prevented from functioning). When the
oncogene becomes derepressed,
possibly by a virus, by a chemical carcinogen, or by radiation, it expresses
itself by bringing about the formation of a transforming protein. A
transforming protein of this type could change a normal cell into a malignant
one even though no viruses could be recovered from it. They coined the term oncogene (816).
Jay M.
Goldberg (US), Paul B. Brown (US), Tom C.T. Yin (US), and Joseph Chan (KR)
provided important information on the binaural functioning of the medial
superior olive (634; 1859).
Paul Bessou
(FR) and Edward R. Perl (US) described two populations of unmyelinated primary
afferents that respond to noxious stimulation: polymodal nociceptors and
high-threshold mechanoreceptors. The polymodal nociceptors were named such
because they respond to mechanical, thermal (both hot and cold) and chemical
(weak acids) stimuli, but only in the noxious range. Bessou and Perl further
showed that polymodal nociceptors are sensitized by heat applied to the
receptive field (132).
Burgess N.
Christensen (US) and Edward R. Perl (US) examined dorsal horn units receiving
input from slowly conducting afferents. They demonstrate that cells in the
superficial dorsal horn, principally in lamina I, respond to unmyelinated and
lightly myelinated primary afferents. They described cells that respond only to
noxious mechanical stimulation, those that respond to noxious mechanical and
thermal stimuli and those that respond to innocuous thermal changes,
principally in the cooling direction (301).
Lewis
Wolpert (GB) proposed the French flag model as a conceptual definition of a
morphogen. The French flag is used to represent the effect of a morphogen on
cell differentiation. A morphogen affects cell states based on its
concentration, with these states represented by the different colors of the
French flag. High concentrations activate a "blue" gene; lower
concentrations activate a "white" gene, while "red" serves
as the default state in cells below the necessary concentration threshold (1829; 1830). Well-known morphogens include:
Decapentaplegic /Transforming growth factor beta, Hedgehog /Sonic hedgehog,
Wingless /Wnt, Epidermal growth factor, and Fibrobalst growth factor. See, Christiane Jani Nüsslein-Volhard,
1980.
Flemming
Kissmeyer-Nielsen (DK), Arne Svejgaard (DK), Steen Ahrons (DK), and Lene Staub
Nielsen (DK) were the first to describe a crossover between HLA-A and HLA-B,
proving that HLA identified a chromosomal region and not a single locus (953).
Hugh O’Neill
McDevitt (US) and Allen Chinitz (US) found in inbred mice that the immune
responses to a related series of three synthetic polypeptide antigens are
genetically controlled traits, which are closely correlated with the genotype
for the major histocompatibility (H-2) locus (1128).
Roy Y. Calne
(GB), Robert A. Sells (GB), João Rodrigues Pena, Jr. (GB), Duane R. Davis (GB),
Peter R. Millard (GB), Basil M. Herbertson (GB), Richard M. Binns (GB), and
David Allen L. Davis (GB) showed that spontaneously tolerant pig liver
recipients were also tolerant to skin and kidney allografts from the same donor (250).
Martin G.
Lewis (US), Ruscho L. Ikonopisov (BG), Rodney C. Nairn (GB), Terry M. Phillips (GB),
Gordon Hamilton Fairley (GB), Dennis C. Bodenham (GB), and Peter Alexander (GB)
discovered tumor specific antibodies in patients with melanomas (1029).
Theodore
Pincus (US), Peter H. Schur (US), James A. Rose (US), John L. Decker (US), and
Norman Talal (US) applied the Farr,
ammonium sulfate technique to measure antibodies to double-stranded DNA found
in patients with systemic lupus
erythematosus (SLE). This method provides an easily performed specific
clinical test for diagnosis and
management of SLE (1344).
Thomas W.
Smith (US), Vincent P. Butler, Jr. (US), and Edgar Haber (US) presented a rapid, sensitive, and specific
radioimmunoassay for the cardiac glycoside digoxin. Concepts arising
from this work were the recognition that antibody populations of sufficient
specificity and affinity allow the measurement of minute concentrations of
drugs and endogenous substances in biological fluids without prior separation
procedures. Also, of importance has been the recognition that antibody
populations directed against a non-antigenic drug molecule coupled as a hapten
to a carrier macromolecule frequently achieve affinity constants of 1010 M-1 or
greater (1565).
Geoffrey M.
Collins (US), Maria Bravo-Sugarman (US), and Paul I. Terasaki (US)
described a method for kidney preservation by which the organ could be stored
in ice for up to 30 hours with minimal damage. The main departure from
previously used methods was in the composition of the flush solution, which was
formulated to resemble the intracellular rather than the extracellular ionic
content (326).
Frederick P.
Li (US) and Joseph F. Fraumeni, Jr. (US) studied children with rhabdomyosarcoma
who had relatives who developed other organ-site cancers at an early age. This
led to the identification of a familial cancer syndrome later shown to be
primarily influenced by inherited mutations in p53 (1037).
Jørgen
Rygaard (DK) and Carl O. Povlsen (DK) achieved heterotransplantation of a human malignant tumor to athymic
"nude" mice (1450).
Howard A. Pearson (US), Richard P. Spencer (US), and Eugene A. Cornelius
(US) designated decreased splenic reticuloendothelial uptake of radiocolloid
(99mTc) in young children with sickle cell anemia who had clinical
splertomegaly as “functional asplenia.” This defect is the probable basis for
the high mortality from pneumococcal sepsis that these children experience in
the first years of life (1316).
Natalie
Hurwitz (GB) reported that there are significantly more adverse drug reactions
in elderly patients than in young patients and more in women than in men (824).
Edward D.
Freis (US) demonstrated the life-saving effectiveness of the use of drugs in
the treatment of moderate hypertension, and the dramatic reduction of deaths
from stroke and congestive heart failure, which can be realized when blood
pressure is kept within normal limits (580-586).
Juan Rosai
(IT-AR-US) and Ronald F. Dorfman (US) described sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (Rosai-Dorfman syndrome). It is characterized
by abundant histiocytes in the lymph nodes throughout the body (1427).
Richard C.
Lillehei (US), Yasuo Idezuki (JP), William D. Kelly (US), Frederick K. Merkel
(US), Richard L. Simmons (US), John S. Najarian (US), Richard Weil (US),
Hisanori Uchida (JP), José Octavio Ruiz (MX), Carl M. Kjellstrand (US),
Frederick C. Goetz (US), and Carlos J. Aquino () were the first to perform the
successful allotransplantation of a pancreas (1050-1052).
William H.
Harris (US) described treatment of traumatic arthritis of the hip after
dislocation and acetabular fractures by mold arthroplasty. He included an
end-result study using a new method of result evaluation—Harris Hip Score (715).
Colin James
Pennycuick (GB) discovered that many migratory birds have minimal energy
reserves and must stop to feed at regular intervals. The destruction of the
intermediate feeding places of these birds could lead to their extinction, even
if their summer and winter quarters are conserved (1322; 1323).
Eugene
Pleasants Odum (US) stated that ecological succession is regarded as orderly
and directional, and therefore predictable, because of modifications of the
physical environment by the community itself (1271).
Warren P.
Porter (US) and David M. Gates (US) emphasized that animals must be in a
thermodynamic equilibrium with their environment (1358).
Michael F.
Land (GB) discovered in jumping spiders (Salticids) that the
principal-eye retina is organized into four tiers of receptors, with light
passing first through Layer 4 and then successively through Layer 3 and 2
before finally reaching Layer 1. In fact, what Land gave us, derived from
serial 10μ m thick wax sections along the anterior–posterior and
dorsal–ventral axes, was a remarkably detailed 3-dimensional understanding of
the internal structure of the principal eye and he also showed that primary
neural fibers from the receptors of each layer of the retina terminated in
layer-specific areas in the part of the brain to which the optic nerve is
attached.
Land
hypothesized that the tiered retina functions in color vision. Land's other
hypothesis was that, owing to each layer receiving in-focus images from objects
at different distances in front of the eye, layering might function to expand
the eye's depth of focus (991).
Land
discovered that the principle eyes engage in four types of eye movement: 1)
spontaneous, 2) saccades, 3) tracking, and 4) scanning. Scanning consists of a
regular pattern of periodic horizontal movement simultaneous with slower
rotational movement and may be unique (992).
David S.
Williams (AU) and Peter McIntyre (AU) demonstrated that a pit at the rear of
the principal-eye tube functions as a lens, turning the salticid principal eye
into a Galilean telescope (1815).
Robert S.
Schwab (US), Albert C. England Jr. (US), David C. Poskanzer (US), and Robert R.
Young (US) reported that sixty-six percent of a group of 163 patients with Parkinson's
disease exhibited subjective or objective improvement of their akinesia,
rigidity, and tremor while receiving amantadine hydrochloride (1496).
Eddy D.
Palmer (US) found that diagnostic management of 1,400 patients with severe,
active upper-gastrointestinal tract hemorrhage by immediate esophagogastroscopy
and contrast roentgenography provided confident identification of the bleeding
lesion in 93%. Preexamination ice-water lavage of the stomach by Ewald tube and
syringe proved remarkably effective for control of active hemorrhage (1300).
Wallace H.
Clark, Jr. (US), Lynn From (US), Evelina A. Bernardino (US), and Martin C. Mihm
(US) developed a
five-part scale, based on the depth of penetration of the lesion from the
epidermis into the dermis and down to the subcutaneous tissue, which can be
used to predict the likely progression of malignant melanomas and the prognosis
for the patient (310). Note: Clark and his colleagues also made seminal
observations on the importance of mitotic rate and tumor infiltrating
lymphocytes in primary melanomas as important prognostic variables.
Benton J.
Underwood (US) proposed that a memory is a collection of attributes. These
serve to discriminate one memory from another and to act as retrieval
mechanisms. The attributes identified are temporal frequency, modality,
orthographic, associative nonverbal, and associative verbal (1714).
Fergus I.M.
Craik (GB-CA) and Robert S. Lockhart (AU-CA) postulated that human memory be
viewed as the record of mental operations carried out primarily for the
purposes of perception and comprehension. The operations are performed at
various levels of processing, where ‘deeper’ levels involve greater semantic
analysis and are associated with longer-lasting memory traces (366).
John Robert
Anderson (US) and Gordon H. Bower (US) described an associative theory of human
memory, embodied in a computer simulation that made a wide range of predictions
about sentence memory and other verbal learning phenomena. The theory dealt
successfully with organizational phenomena thought to disconfirm associative
theories (32).
Paul Ralph Ehrlich (US), and Peter
Hamilton Raven (US) suggested that many, if not most, species are not
evolutionary units, except in the sense that they (like genera, families, and
so forth) are products of evolution. They argue that selection is both the
primary cohesive and disruptive force in evolution, and that the selective
regime itself determines what influence gene flow (or isolation) will have.
They present evidence to support their thesis (497).
Jürgen Haffer (DE) reasons that in
the temperate regions, as well as in the tropics, climatic fluctuations caused
pronounced changes in the vegetation cover and led to the isolation of
comparatively small populations in refuge areas. The presumably small niche
size (and lower population density) of tropical relative to temperate-zone
forest animals and the correspondingly higher rate of speciation in the tropics
under conditions of large-scale climatic fluctuations may explain the rapid
differentiation of topical forest faunas during the Pleistocene (696).
Margaret B.
Davis (US), by identifying and counting pollen grains at Rogers Lake in
Connecticut, was able to construct a plant history of this area from 8,000 to
14,000 years ago (397).
Chester
Gorman (US) found evidence to support Carl Ortwin Sauer’s (US) hypothesis of
plant domestication by the Hoabinhian people. They lived at Spirit Cave in
Northern Thailand and grew domesticated beans, peas, gourds and water chestnuts
around 6000-9000 BCE (652-654; 1473).
John Harold
Ostrom (US) described the carnivorous dinosaur Deinonychus
as an agile, active warm-blooded theropod who may have hunted in packs (1291).
Robert T.
Bakker (US) strongly argues that dinosaurs were warm-blooded and that many were
very agile runners (69-71).
F. Clark
Howell (US), Lynn S. Fichter (US), Gerald G. Eck (US), and Bernard A. Wood (US)
found fossil remains of Australopithecus
africanus, Australopithecus boisei,
Homo habilis, and Homo erectus in the lower basin of the
Omo River, Southwest Ethiopia (802-805).
Michael H.
Day (GB) discovered fossil Homo sapiens
in the lower basin of the Omo River, Southwest Ethiopia (402). It was
dated at c.a 130K BP
Robert H.
Whittaker (US) proposed that each living creature can be conveniently and
logically placed in one of five kingdoms: Plantae, Animalia, Protista, Fungi,
or Monera (prokaryotes), i.e., Whittaker's five kingdoms taxonomic scheme (1801).
John Hogg
(GB) coined the word Protoctista (Gr. first created beings) to describe any
organisms that were neither plant nor animal. Protista is a modification of
this term (785).
Ernst Heinrich
Philipp August Haeckel (Häckel) (Heckel) (DE) suggested that bacteria deserved
to be placed in a separate kingdom, which he named Monera (694; 695).
1970
“The idea of
man as a dominant animal of the earth whose whole behavior tends to be
dominated by his own desire for dominance gripped me. It seemed to explain
almost everything.” Frank Macfarlane Burnet (235).
“Freedom to
inquire into the nature of things is a rewarding privilege granted to a few by
a permissive society.” Sterling Brown Hendricks, The Passing Scene.
“Within each
cell a cybernetic network … guarantees the functional coherence of
intracellular machinery … and in this system the elementary control operations
are handled by specialized proteins (the allosteric proteins) acting as
detectors and transducers of chemical information.” Jacques Lucien Monod (1189).
"We
live in a world where unfortunately the distinction between true and false
appears to become increasingly blurred by manipulation of facts, by
exploitation of uncritical minds, and by the pollution of the language." Arne

Luis
Federico Leloir (AR) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery
of sugar nucleotides and their role in the biosynthesis of carbohydrates.
Bernard Katz
(DE-GB), Ulf Svante Hansson von Euler-Chelpin (SE) and Julius Axelrod (US) were
awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries
concerning the humoral transmitters in the nerve terminals and the mechanism
for their storage, release and inactivation.
Susan N.
Meloan (US), Linda S. Valentine (US), and Holde Puchtler (US) established the
structure of carmine and its Ca++ and Al+++ lakes (1142).
Paul J.
Crutzen (NL) wrote an article explaining that nitrogen oxides can promote
decomposition of atmospheric ozone (378).
Witold
Mechlinski (US), Carl P. Schaffner (US), Paolo Ganis (IT), and Gustavo
Avitabile (IT) established the structure of amphotericin B by x-ray
crystallographic analysis (597; 1139).
Amphotericin B is a widely used antifungal agent produced by Streptomyces nodosus. It is a member of
a family of clinically important molecules called the polyene macrolides.
Ralph C.
Dougherty (US), Harold H. Strain (US), Walter A. Svec (US), Robert A. Uphaus
(US), and Joseph J. Katz (US) determined the chemical structure of chlorophyll
c (460).
Jean-Pierre
Changeux (FR), Michiki Kasai (FR), Monique Huchel (FR), and Jean-Claude Meunier
(FR) isolated the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of the eel electric organ,
the first ever isolated membrane pharmacological receptor (291).
Ricardo
Miledi (GB), Perry Molinoff (GB), and Lincoln T. Potter (GB) also reported the
isolation of the cholinergic receptor (1160).
Anne
Devillers-Thiéry (FR), Jerome Giraudet (FR), Martine Bentaboulet (FR),
Jean-Pierre Changeux (FR), Masaharu Noda (JP), Hideo Takahashi (JP), Tsutomu
Tanabe (JP), Mitsuyoshi Toyosato (JP), Yasuji Furutani (JP), Tadaaki Hirose
(JP), Michiko Asai (JP), Seiichi Inayama (JP), Takashi Miyata (JP), Shosaku
Numa (JP), Marc Ballivet (US), James Patrick (US), James Lee (US), and Stephen
F. Heinemann (US) elucidated the primary structure of the subunits of the
cholinergic receptor (75; 428; 429; 1249).
Mohammed
Salah El Din Balegh (US) and Orlin Biddulph (US) showed that leaves do absorb
and use much green light in photosynthesis, despite the common misconception
that they reflect all green light (73).
Saul B.
Needleman (US) and Christian D. Wunsch (US) provided a computer adaptable
method for finding similarities in the amino acid sequences of two proteins (1220).
Temple Smith (US) and Michael
Waterman (US) extended this dynamic programming approach to solve the local
alignment problem. These exact solutions placed sequence comparisons on a firm
mathematical grounding and formed the basis for the early alignment search
algorithms (1564).
William R.
Pearson (US) and David J. Lipman (US) devised a successful heuristic algorithm
to enable efficient searching of large databases, FASTA. This simplified the
problem by searching for short regions of exact match and then extending them (1317).
Stephen Altschul
(US), Warren Gish (US), Webb Miller (US), Eugene W. Myers (US), and David J.
Lipman (US) presented the basic local alignment search tool (BLAST), which
instead searched for all short matches above a given scoring threshold and
showed that this improved speed. In addition, Altschul developed a statistical
framework for sequence alignment that provided a conceptual basis for
understanding similarity measures, and a method for assessing the statistical
significance of a given alignment. BLAST indexes the query sequence and scans
against a database (24; 25).
W. James
Kent (US) showed how the reverse could increase speed (at tolerably reduced
sensitivity), with the BLAST-like alignment tool (BLAT) (936).
Arthur L.
Delcher (US), Simon Kasif (US), Robert D. Fleischmann (US), Jeremy Peterson
(US), Owen White (US), and Steven L. Salzberg
(US) invented a new system for aligning whole genome sequences. Using an
efficient data structure called a suffix tree, the system is able to rapidly
align sequences containing millions of nucleotides (419).
Scott
Schwartz (US), W. James Kent (US), Arian Smit (US), Zheng Zhang (US), Robert
Baertsch (US), Ross C. Hardison (US), David Haussler (US), and Webb Miller (US)
followed with 'BLASTZ' (an independent implementation of the Gapped BLAST
algorithm) which is useful for cross-species comparisons, allowing alignment
and searching of mammalian chromosome-length sequences. BLASTZ was subsequently
modified, both to attain efficiency adequate for aligning entire mammalian
genomes and to increase its sensitivity (1497).
Thomas A.
Bewley (US), Choh Hao Li (CN-US), and Jonathan S. Dixon (US) performed a
comparison of amino acid sequences in human pituitary growth hormone, human
chorionic somatomammotropin and ovine pituitary lactogenic hormone (137-139).
San-pin Wang (CN-US) and J. Thomas Grayston (US) developed the
Micro-Immunofluorescence (micro-IF) Test (1758).
Sergei E.
Severin (RU), Alexander A. Boldyrev (RU), Vladimir B. Petukhov (RU), Alexander
M. Dupin (RU), and Evgenia V. Pindel (RU) discovered that carnosine, found in
the muscle, directly interacts with peroxides formed in the tissue that
deteriorate the structure and function of membranes. Thus, carnosine
participates in maintaining the muscle in a functionally active state. The
ascorbate-dependent peroxidation of lipid components of biological membranes is
inhibited by the natural histidine-containing dipeptides, carnosine and
anserine (158; 1506; 1507).
David H.
MacLennan (CA) purified ATPase from
sarcoplasmic reticulum via fractionation. Based on several observations,
including the fact that the enzyme has sites for both Mg2 and Ca2, the enzyme
carries out partial reactions of Ca2 transport, and the enzyme contains
phospholipid and can form in membranes, MacLennan concluded that the ATPase is also the calcium transporter (1087).
Peter H.
Duesberg (US) and Peter K. Vogt (US) noted that the 60–70S RNAs of several
transforming and nontransforming avian tumor viruses have different
electrophoretic mobilities. The RNA of transforming viruses contains two
electrophoretically separable subunit classes: a and b. The
relative concentrations of these subunits vary with the virus strain. Avian
leukosis viruses and nontransforming derivatives of a sarcoma virus lack
subunits of class a. It is suggested that the presence of the class asubunit
is related to the transforming ability for fibroblasts of the virus (468). Note: This is one of the
firt articles in molecular cancer research.
Shiro
Kakiuchi (JP), Reiko Yamazaki (JP), and Hideki Nakajima (JP) were examining
properties of a heat stable phosphodiesterase
activating factor isolated from brain extract and Wai Yiu Cheung (CN-US) was
examining the necessity of a calcium binding activator for cyclic 3', 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase when they discovered calmodulin (295; 890).
Wai Yiu
Cheung (CN-US), Thomas J. Lynch (US), and Robert W. Wallace (US) named it calmodulin (296; 297).
Rajendra K.
Sharma (CA), Rekha Desai (CA), David M. Waisman (CA), and Jerry H.C. Wang
(TW-CA) isolated calmodulin and was able to show that its function is calcium- dependent.
He also isolated calcineurin as the major calmodulin-binding protein of the central
nervous system and several isoforms of cyclonucleotide phosphodiesterases (1513).
D. Martin
Watterson (US), Farida Sharief (US), and Thomas C. Vanaman (US) determined the
primary amino acid structure of calmodulin (1770).
June L.
Biedler (US) and Hansjørg Riehm (DE) performed investigations which support the
hypothesis that the development of resistance to Actinomycin D in Chinese
hamster cells is due to qualitative difference in cell membrane, resulting in
decreased permeability to Actinomycin D and other compounds. Actinomycin
D-resistant cells were cross-resistant, in decreasing order, to mithramycin,
vinblastine, vincristine, puromycin, daunomycin, demecolcine, and mitomycin C (141). Note: Identifying drug transporters in the cell membranes that
control entry of drugs in and out of the cell is very important for the
pharmacokinetics of drug action.
Michael B.
Jackson (GB) and Daphne J. Osborne (GB) showed that “natural” leaf fall is triggered by increased ethylene production in
senescing cells close to abscission zones (840).
Irene Ridge
(GB) and Daphne J. Osborne (GB) found that towards the end of cell elongation
in Pisum sativum there is a large rise in peroxidases and
hydroxyproline-rich protein components and thereafter a continuing slow rise
which is associated with increasing age of tissue. Ethylene at concentrations
of 0.1 ppm or more increases both peroxidase activity and hydroxyproline levels
in the walls, the greatest response occurring in immature tissue including the
apical hook. Growth of these tissues is highly sensitive to ethylene which
causes an inhibition of elongation in extending cells and an enhanced lateral
cell expansion. They suggested that the effects of ethylene on wall-bound
peroxidase and hydroxyproline are implicated in the ethylene regulation of cell
growth (1409).
Tai Te Wu
(CN-US) and Elvin Abraham Kabat (US) found that the three hypervariable
segments of the variable regions of light and of the heavy chains of human and
mouse immunoglobulins have been delineated from a statistical examination of
sequences aligned for maximum homology and postulated to be the complementarity
determining residues of antibody combining sites (882; 1845).
Celso Bianco
(BR), Richard Patrick (US), and Victor Nussenzweig (US) divided lymphocytes
into two subpopulations: those carrying a complement receptor on their surface
(CRL) and those not carrying a complement receptor on their surface (non-CRL).
The two populations were physically separated using rosette formation and
density gradient centrifugation. CRL cells carry immunoglobulin and adhere to
nylon wool (140). Later, CRL
cells became known a B-lymphocytes and non-CRL cells as T lymphocytes.
Martin C.
Raff (CA-GB) described how to identify murine B-lymphocytes by the presence of
immunoglobulin (Ig) in their surface membrane. It was apparent that this simple
method could be directly applied to human cells (1377; 1378).
Benvenuto
Pernis (IT), Luciana Forni (IT), and Luisa Amante (IT) used immunofluorescence
to show immunoglobulins on the membrane of bone marrow and not thymus
lymphocytes. About one-half of lymphoid cells in blood and spleen have membrane
immunoglobulins. The molecules show allelic exclusion, are oriented with the
Fab toward the outside, and can bind antigens (1329).
Alan C.
Aisenberg (US) and Kurt J. Bloch (US) found
that the neoplastic lymphocytes of nearly all of 25 patients with chronic
lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) carried surface immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules of a
single heavy (mu) and light chain (either kappa or lambda) type. B-lymphocytes
show a similar restriction of their surface Ig to a single heavy and light
chain type. Thus, the observations in CLL provided evidence for the clonal origin of the neoplastic cells and
established their B-cell lineage (17).
John D.
Crossland (GB), M.D. Pepper (GB), Carolyn M. Giles (GB), and Elizabeth W. Ikin
(GB) discovered the MV blood antigen (376).
Carolyn M.
Giles (GB), J. Darnborough (GB), Peter Aspinall (GB), and M.W. Fletton (GB)
identified the Cob blood antigen (626).
Kan L.
Agarwal (US), Henry Büchi (US), Marvin Harry Caruthers (US), Neera K. Gupta
(US), Har Gobind Khorana (IN-US), Kjell Kleppe (NO), Ashok Kumar (IN), Eiko
Ohtsuka (US), Uttam L. Rajbhandary (US), J. Hans Van deSande (DE-CA), Vittorio
Sgaramella (IT), Hans Weber (US), and Tesshi Yamada (US) carried out the total
synthesis of the gene for alanine transfer ribonucleic acid from yeast (9).
Gertrudis
DelaFuente (ES), Rosario Legunas (ES) and Alberto Sols (ES) used experiments
with hexokinase to confirm the theory
that enzyme catalysis depends on the enzyme being flexible (415; 416).
Takashi
Murachi (JP) demonstrated that trypsin exhibits similar behavior (1209).
Thomas
Kornberg (US), Malcolm L. Gefter (US), Robb E. Moses (US), Charles Clifton
Richardson (US), and Rolf Knippers (DE) discovered DNA polymerase II (second polymerase recognized) of Escherichia coli (957; 967; 1200; 1201).
Harvey A.
Eisen (US), Philippe Brachet (FR), Luiz H. Pereira da Silva (BR), Francois
Jacob (FR), using the lambda virus,
were the first to define a genetic oscillatory system, cI and cro (499).
David
Baltimore (US), Alice S. Huang (US), and Martha Stampfer (US) found that there
exists a large class of viruses, now called negative
strand viruses, that carry a strand of RNA complementary to the messenger
RNA as their genome and that carry an RNA
polymerase able to copy the genome RNA to form multiple messenger RNAs (77; 1092).
Masayasu
Nomura (JP-US) and Volker A. Erdmann (DE) were the first to reconstitute the
50S ribosomal subunit. Their material was from Bacillus stearothermophilus (1250).
Robert
Wesley Morris (US) and Edward Herbert (US) purified and characterized yeast nucleotidyl transferase. They
investigated its role in the enzyme-transfer ribonucleic acid complex formation (1198).
John Michael Bishop (US), Warren E. Levinson (US), Nancy A.
Quintrell (US), Drew Sullivan (US), Lois Fanshier (US), Jean Jackson (US),
Thomas A. Walker (US), Norman Richard Pace, Jr. (US), Raymond L. Erikson (US)
and F. Behr (US) associated signal recognition (SRP) RNA (then called 7S RNA)
with retrovirus genomic RNA (144; 1748).
Graham
Warren (US) and Bernhard Dobberstein (DE) first noticed that a signal recognition
particle (SRP) was operating when they realized that it restored the
translocation activity of salt-extracted microsomes in vitro (1764).
Peter Walter
(US), Reid Gilmore (US), and Günter Klaus-Joachim Blobel (DE-US) isolated a
signal recognition particle (SRP) which is used to attach protein-secreting
ribosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum (628; 1752; 1754).
Peter Walter
(US) and Günter Klaus-Joachim Blobel (DE-US) found that the signal recognition
particle (SRP) contains RNA essential to its function (SRP 7S scRNA) (1753).
Peter Walter
(US), Reid Gilmore (US), and Günter Klaus-Joachim Blobel (DE-US) proposed a
model that described the molecular mechanism of protein targeting to and
translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane (1755). “According
to this model, signal sequences are recognized as they emerge as part of a
nascent protein chain from the ribosome by the signal recognition particle
(SRP), which binds to them in a direct protein-protein interaction. This
recognition event occurs in intimate association with the ribosome, and,
indeed, SRP can directly talk to the ribosome and slow the rate at which the
polypeptide chain is elongated. This elongation
arrest activity most likely serves to maintain the nascent chain as short
as possible prior to its targeting to the membrane. Thus, a targeting complex
consisting of the ribosome with its signal-bearing nascent chain and the
engaged SRP is formed, which next interacts with the SRP receptor, a membrane
protein that is localized specifically to the ER. The ribosome-nascent chain is
then released from SRP and the SRP receptor and, concomitantly, is handed over
to a translocation complex, or translocon, in the membrane. Upon binding to the
ribosome, the translocon opens an aqueous pore that allows the passage of the
nascent protein across the hydrophobic core of the lipid bilayer. The ribosome
thus stays attached to the ER membrane to complete the synthesis of the protein
that it initiated in the cytosol, and it is these membrane-bound ribosomes that
give the rough ER its characteristic appearance when viewed in the electron
microscope” (1751).
Davis T.W.
Ng (US), Jeremy D. Brown (GB), and Peter Walter (US) discovered an
SRP-independent targeting to the ER membrane (1232).
Laust Østergaard (DK), Niels Larsen (DK), Henrik Leffers (DK),
Jørgen Kjems (DK), Roger A. Garrett (DK), Elizabeth Suzanne Haas (US), James W.
Brown (US), Charles J. Daniels (US), and John N. Reeve (US) found that in the
archaebacteria Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum
and Methanothermus fervidus
the single signal recognition particle (SRP) RNA gene resides
together with a 5S rRNA gene and two tRNA genes within one of
the organism's rRNA operons (690; 1290).
Peter Walter
(US) and Alexander E. Johnson (US) described the signal recognition particle (SRP)—the
ribonucleoprotein machine that facilitates topologically
correct protein synthesis into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)—as containing a small RNA
and six bound proteins (1756).
Virginia M. Tennyson (US) noted the presence of ribosomes in the
early embryonic axons suggesting that protein synthesis may continue in these
segments at a considerable distance from the perikaryon (1658).
Douglas S.
Campbell (GB) and Christine E. Holt (GB) have documented ribosomes, mRNA,
translational initiation proteins, and protein synthesis in axons and growth
cones (253).
Prafullachandra
Vishnu Sane (IN), David J. Goodchild (US), and Roderic B. Park (US) proposed a
model for chloroplast membrane structure. One large membrane is folded into
stacked and unstacked interconnecting regions. While photosystem I and small
freeze fracture particles exist in both regions, photosystem II and large
particles are restricted to the stacked regions (1309; 1465).
Adelaide
T.C. Carpenter (US) discovered recombination nodules within the synaptonemal
complex of Drosophila. This nodule is
believed to be the location for recombination events. These nodules have not
been found in organisms, which do not exhibit recombination (262-264).
Ruth Sager
(US) and Zenta Ramanis (US) produced a genetic map of non-Mendelian
(chloroplast) genes in Chlamydomonas (1456).
Andrzej
Krzysztof Tarkowski (PL), Anna Witkowska (PL), and Jolanta Nowicka (PL) showed for the first
time in history that parthenogenetically activated mouse oocytes are able of
developing until mid-gestation (1649).
Potu N. Rao
(US) and Robert T. Johnson (US) merged mammalian cells in the S phase with
cells in the G1 phase and found that the nuclei of the G1 cells began to make
DNA long before they would normally have done so. This result clearly
demonstrated that a cell in the S phase contains something that triggers DNA
synthesis, whereas this something is absent from a cell that has not completed
its G1 phase (1386). These
results were the first indication in mammalian cells that the sequential and
unidirectional phases of the cell cycle are controlled by a series of chemical
signals that can diffuse freely between the nucleus and cytoplasm.
Leland
Harrison Hartwell (US), Joseph Culotti (US), Marilyn Culotti (US), Brian J.
Reid (US), John R. Pringle (US), and Robert K. Mortimer (US) pioneered genetic
and molecular studies that revealed the universal machinery—cell
division cycle or cdc genes— for
regulating cell division in all eukaryotic organisms, from yeasts to frogs to
human beings (379; 716-721). Note: This work laid the groundwork for
the discovery of checkpoint proteins and how cancer cells derail checkpoints.
Yoshio Masui
(CA) and Clement L. Markert (CA) discovered, but did not purify, a cytoplasmic
factor, which had the power to arrest Xenopus
eggs at meiotic metaphase II. Cytostatic
factor (CSF) was the name they gave it. It later became known as
maturation-promoting factor (MPF), then mitosis-promoting factor (1115). MPF was
later identified as cyclin B-CDC2. See
below.
Paul Maxime
Nurse (GB), Pierre Thuriaux (GB), and Kim Nasmyth (GB), in the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, “defined 14
unlinked genes which are involved in DNA synthesis, nuclear division and cell
plate formation. The products from most of these genes complete their function
just before the cell cycle event in which they are involved. Physiological
characterization of the mutants has shown that DNA synthesis and nuclear
division form a cycle of mutually dependent events which can operate in the
absence of cell plate formation. Cell plate formation itself is usually
dependent upon the completion of nuclear division” (1260).
Paul Maxime
Nurse (GB) and Pierre Thuriaux (GB) found the first unambiguous evidence for
the existence of a gene whose role is to trigger the Gap2-to-M- phase
transition during mitosis in Schizosaccharomyces
pombe (1259).
John C.
Gerhart (US), Mike Wu (US), and Marc Wallace Kirschner (US) extracted MPF from Xenopus laevis eggs and oocytes and
determined that this factor appears early during the cell cycle and then
rapidly disappears during the first meiotic cycle. MPF then appears during the
second meiotic cycle and disappears when maturation arrests. Therefore, MPF
activity cycles throughout meiosis (609).
John W.
Newport (US) and Marc Wallace Kirschner (US) discovered the maturation promoting factor (MPF) which
could be considered as part of a molecular clock in Xenopus; controlling its cleavage divisions (1231). MPF now
means mitosis promoting factor
because it was shown to be a mitotic inducer in most, if not all, eukaryotic
cell types. MPF consists of two polypeptides, which are the products of the
cdc2 gene discovered in yeasts (869).
Tom Evans
(GB), Eric T. Rosenthal (US), James Youngblom (US), Dan Distel (US), and Tim
Hunt; Richard Timothy Hunt (GB) discovered and named cyclin from sea urchin eggs. It is identical to the larger
polypeptide (523).
Robert T.
Johnson (US) and Potu N. Rao (US) identified a soluble factor, which promotes
condensation of chromosomes (868). It now
seems likely that the condensation factor
and mitosis promoting factor (MPF)
are one and the same.
Manfred J.
Lohka (US), Marianne K. Hayes (US), and James L. Maller (US) purified MPF from
unfertilized Xenopus oocytes and
postulated that it is composed of two components
(1063).
Jean-Claude
Labbé (FR), Melanie G. Lee (GB), Paul Maxime Nurse (GB), André Picard (FR),
Marcel Dorée (FR), Jean-Paul Capony (FR), Daniel Caput (FR), Jean-Claude
Cavadore (FR), Jean Derancourt (FR), Mourad Kaghad (FR) and Jean-Michel Lelias
(FR) showed that in starfish oocytes MPF is a heterodimer consisting of cyclin-dependent kinase (cdc2) and
cyclin B (982; 983).
Noriyuki
Sagata (JP), Nobumoto Watanabe (JP), George F. Vande Woude (US), and Yoji Ikawa
(JP) discovered that the c-mos proto-oncogene
product, pp39mos is the cytostatic factor
(CSF), long known as an endogenous meiotic inhibitor in vertebrate eggs (1454).
Arthur Beck
Pardee (US) proposed that cells go into a Gap 0 (G0) state, and that this is an
equivalent state irrespective of how it is induced. He showed that cells
re-enter the cell cycle by transiting a 'restriction point' - after which they
are committed to the cell cycle - and argued that this switch is defective in
cancer cells. He proposed that the ‘restriction point’ allows normal cells to
retain viability by a shift to minimal metabolism upon differentiation... when
conditions are suboptimal for growth (1305; 1306).
Anders
Zetterberg (SE) and Olle Larsson (SE) showed that a variable
growth-factor-dependent phase preceded a growth-factor-independent phase (1869).
Viesturs
Simanis (CH) and Paul Maxime Nurse (GB) found that the cell cycle control gene cdc2+ of fission yeast encodes a protein kinase potentially regulated by
phosphorylation (1532).
Paul Russell
(GB) and Paul Maxime Nurse (GB) found that in the fission yeast S. pombe the cdc25+ gene function is required to initiate mitosis. They
demonstrated that cdc25+ functions as
a dosage-dependent inducer in mitotic control, the first such mitotic control
element to be specifically identified (1448).
Paul Russell
(GB) and Paul Maxime Nurse (GB) found that wee1+ functions as a dose-dependent
inhibitor of mitosis, the first such element to be specifically identified and
cloned (1449).
Melanie G.
Lee (GB) and Paul Maxime Nurse (GB) showed that the human gene encoding a cell
cycle protein kinase (Cdc2) when expressed in yeast permitted the otherwise
defective yeast strain to complete cell division. These data indicate that
elements of the mechanism by which the cell cycle is controlled are likely to
be conserved between yeast and humans (1013).
Ted A.
Weinert (US) and Leland Harrison Hartwell (US) discovered that the RAD9 gene product in Saccharomyces cerevisiae arrests—acts as
a checkpoint—the cells in G2 thus improving their opportunity to repair damage
to DNA (1782).
Melanie G.
Lee (GB), Christopher J. Norbury (GB), Nigel K. Spurr (GB), and Paul Maxime
Nurse (GB) proposed that phosphorylation of p34CDC2, the protein product of the
CDC2 gene in mammals, serves as a
regulatory mechanism generally in eukaryotic cells, while transcriptional
control of the CDC2 gene in higher
eukaryotes may be relevant to long term processes such as senescence and
differentiation (1012).
Jean-Claude
Labbé (FR), Melanie G. Lee (GB), Paul Maxime Nurse (GB), André Picard (FR), and
Marcel Dorée (FR) proposed that entry into meiotic and mitotic nuclear
divisions involves activation of the protein
kinase encoded by a homologue of cdc2+ (983).
Kathleen L.
Gould (GB) and Paul Maxime Nurse (GB) confirmed that cyclin-dependent kinase (cdc2) is, regulated by phosphorylation.
Phosphorylation is lost as cells enter mitosis. These results indicate that
cdc2 is negatively regulated by phosphorylation and that dephosphorylation is
required for entry into mitosis (658).
Biochemical evidence later proved definitively that wee1 is the kinase and cdc25 is the phosphatase in question.
Bruce A.
Edgar (US) and Pat H. O'Farrell (US) identified the cell-cycle regulator sting (stg) in Drosophila and
found that stg mRNA is expressed in a
dynamic pattern that, importantly, anticipates the patterns of mitosis (485; 486). These
studies gave insight into how cell-cycle regulation is carefully tuned and
coordinated with other simultaneous events such as cell-fate determination and
morphogenesis. The idea that the expression of a cell-cycle regulator, stg, might be regulated by the same
genes that control embryonic patterning, rather than cyclins, provided a molecular mechanism that could explain the
tight correlation between these two processes during development.
M. Andrew
Hoyt (US), Laura Totis (US), B. Tibor Roberts (US), Rong Li (US), and Andrew
Murray (US) identified the spindle checkpoint by showing the existence of a
feedback-control mechanism in Saccharomyces
cerevisiae that prevents cells from leaving mitosis if their mitotic
spindle has been incompletely assembled (808; 1042).
Sandra L.
Holloway (US), Michael Glotzer (US), Randall W. King (US), and Andrew W. Murray
(US) proposed "that chromosome segregation requires the ubiquitination and
degradation of a protein that is not cyclin
but is recognized by some of the same proteins that recognize cyclin and target its degradation" (796).
Randall W.
King (US), Jan-Michael Peters (AT), Stuart M. Tugendreich (US), Mark Rolfe
(US), Philip Hieter (CA), and Marc Wallace Kirschner (US) isolated and named
the anaphase-promoting complex (APC)
and found that it could reconstitute destruction of cyclin B in interphase extracts (948).
Valery
Sudakin (IL), Dvora Ganoth (IL), Aviva Dahan (IL), Hanna Heller (IL), Judith
Hershko (IL), Francis C. Luca (US), Joan V. Ruderman (US), and Avram Hershko
(HU-IL) also isolated a complex, which they called the cyclosome (C), from
their clam extracts (1616). We now
know that the APC and the cyclosome are one and the same (APC/C).
Hironori
Funabiki (JP), Hiroyuki Yamano (GB), Kazuki Kumada (JP), Koji Nagao (JP), Tim
Hunt; Richard Timothy Hunt (GB), and Mitsuhiro Yanagida (JP) presented evidence
that Pds1 might be a substrate of the APC/C when they found that destruction of
Cut2, the fission-yeast orthologue of Pds1, is necessary for anaphase to occur (593).
Chang Bai
(US), Partha Sen (US), Kay Hofmann (CH), Lei Ma (US), Mark G. Goebl (US), J.
Wade Harper (US), Stephen J. Elledge (US), Dorota Skowyra (US), Karen I. Craig
(US), Mike Tyers (US), R.M. Renny Feldman (US), Craig C. Correll (US), Kenneth
B. Kaplan (US), and Raymond J. Deshaies (US) shed considerable light on how
phosphorylation and proteolysis link together to regulate the cell cycle (67; 532; 1552).
Rafal Ciosk
(AT), Wolfgang Zachariae (AT), Christine Michaelis (AT), Andrej Shevchenko
(DE), Matthias Mann (DE), and Kim Nasmyth (AT) proposed that the APC promotes
sister separation not by destroying cohesins but instead by liberating the
"sister-separating" Esp1 protein from its inhibitor Pds1p (302).
Christine
Michaelis (AT), Rafal Ciosk (AT), Kim Nasmyth (AT), Vincent Guacci (US),
Douglas Koshland (US), Alexander Strunnikov (US), Ana Losada (US), Michiko
Hirano (US), Tatsuya Hirano (US), Frank Uhlmann (AT), and Friedrich Lottspeich
(AT) described how a cohesin complex—which includes Scc1—keeps chromatids
together as they are aligned at anaphase. During this time, separase (Esp1) is kept in check by
securin (Pds1). At the start of anaphase, securin (Pds1) is destroyed and
releases separase (Esp1), which goes
on to cleave Scc1 and allows sister chromatids to spring apart (679; 1066; 1155; 1710). C.
Michaelis and his colleagues coined the term cohesins.
Leland
Harrison Hartwell (US), Tim Hunt; Richard Timothy Hunt (GB), and Paul Maxime
Nurse (GB) were awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for
their discoveries of “key regulators of the cell cycle.”
Otto Götze
(US), Hans J. Müller-Eberhard (US), Peter J. Lachmann (GB), and Ronald A.
Thompson (GB) supplied information that identified the C5-C9 complement complex
as the actual attack unit responsible for forcing a hole in the cell membrane
and discovered that activation of this complex can occur in the absence of an
antigen-antibody reaction (657; 985).
Jonathan
William Uhr (US), Earl Wilbur Sutherland, III (US), Daniel H. Zimmerman (US),
and Milton Kern (US) determined that most of the newly synthesized heavy and
light chains of immunoglobulin molecules rapidly appear within the cisternae of
the endoplasmic reticulum, are assembled into covalently linked molecules, and
acquire carbohydrate (1627; 1711).
Paul M.
Knopf (US) and Jonathan William Uhr (US) found that most of the immunoglobulin
molecules are then secreted relatively rapidly. At the same time a small
percentage of the newly synthesized immunoglobulin is inserted into the plasma
membrane (958; 1711).
Matthew
Daniel Scharff (US) and Reuven Laskov (IL) discovered that the genes for the
heavy and light chains of the immunoglobulin molecule are not linked and are
translated onto separate messengers (1478).
Peter B.
Moore (GB), Hugh Esmor Huxley (GB-US), and David J. DeRosier (GB-US) showed how
myosin cross-bridges could interact
with actin filaments. They suggested
that myosin cross bridging supplied
the power source for muscle contraction (825; 1194).
Birdwell
Finlayson (US), Richard W. Lymn (US), Edwin William Taylor (US) and George Moll
(US), among others, worked out many of the biochemical details (542; 543; 1080; 1653).
Akira Endo
(JP), Kazuro Kakiki (JP), and Tomomasa Misato (JP) discovered that the
fungicide polyoxin D interfers with chitin synthesis in several fungi by
inhibiting chitin synthetase (508).
Larry D.
Frye (US), Michael Edidin (US) and Arthur Weiss (US) discovered that lipid
molecules move very freely within their one-half of the lipid bilayer of a cell
membrane (489-491; 592).
Alan
Bernheimer (US) proposed the terms cytotoxin
or cytolytic toxin to describe the
range of biological activity exhibited by the membrane-damaging toxins (129).
Johann
Stenflo (SE) showed that administration of the vitamin K antagonist dicumarol
leads to the biosynthesis of an abnormal prothrombin that is chemically like
prothrombin but is biologically inactive (1599). See, Harold A. Campbell, 1941, for the discovery of dicumarol.
Johann
Stenflo (SE), Per-Olov Garnot (SE), Gary L. Nelsestuen (US), and John W. Suttie
(US) showed that the two forms of prothrombin are similar in carbohydrate and
amino acid composition, molecular weight, and antibody-antigen reactions, but
the inactive prothrombin does not bind calcium to the same degree as the active
protein (1225; 1600; 1603).
Johan
Stenflo (SE), Gary L. Nelsestuen (US), Thomas H. Zytkovicz (US), James Bryant
Howard (US), Staffan Magnusson (SE), Lars Sottrup-Jensen (SE), Torben E.
Petersen (DK), Howard R. Morris (GB), and Anne Dell (GB) discovered
gamma-carboxyglutamic acid, a modified amino acid, while studying bovine
prothrombin (1091; 1226; 1601).
Johan
Stenflo (SE) showed that the differences in the two forms of prothrombin are
confined to two peptides, residues 4–10 and residues 12–44 (1601).
Johann
Stenflo (SE), Per Fernlund (SE), William Egan (SE), and Peter Roepstorff (DK)
discovered that the smaller peptide from normal prothrombin contains 2 residues
of glutamic acid modified to gamma-carboxyglutamic acid, a
previously unknown amino acid (1602).
Per Fernlund (SE), Johan Stenflo
(SE), Peter Roepstorff (DK), and Johannes Thomsen (DK) determined
the structure of the second peptide and identified the residues containing
modified glutamic acid. They found that the first 10 glutamic acid residues in
prothrombin are carboxylated to form gamma-carboxyglutamic acid and that
these gamma-carboxyglutamic acid residues constitute the entire vitamin
K-dependent modification of prothrombin (535). Stenflo’s work on prothrombin
and vitamin K was a major contribution to understanding the role of calcium and
the mechanism of prothrombin activation in blood clotting.
Peter S.
Carlson (US) developed in vitro
methods to select biochemical mutants in tobacco
(260).
David A.
Hungerford (US), William J. Mellman (US), Gloria B.
Balaban (US), Gundula U. LaBadie (US), Linda R. Messatzzia (US), and Gail
Haller (US) described how the trisomy mutation associated with Down syndrome developed
in meiosis (822).
David A.
Hungerford (US) reported that a prolonged hypotonic treatment (60 minutes)
spreads the pachytene bivalents enough for an analysis of the chromomere
pattern (821).
James W.
Truman (US) and Lynn Riddiford (US), using two species of silk moths which
eclose at different times of day showed that eclosion gating is governed by the
brain. By exchanging brains between the two species they `transplanted' the
timing of eclosion. These experiments provided compelling evidence that the
moth brain contains a photoreceptor mechanism, a clock and a neuroendocrine
output that are necessary and sufficient for the synchronization of eclosion
behavior with the environmental photoperiod (1699). Eclosion is the emergence of
the adult from its pupal cuticle.
Once it was
clear that ecdysis into the adult is controlled by the circadian clock, Truman
asked whether the same holds true for larval ecdyses. He reported on the
circadian organization of the endocrine events underlying the larval moulting
cycle. Using the tobacco hornworm, Manduca
sexta, Truman showed in this study that larval ecdyses in Manduca occur at
a specific time of day and that release of a major insect developmental
neurohormone is gated by the circadian clock. The insect moulting cycle starts
with the release of the prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH), which stimulates the
production of ecdysone by the prothoracic glands. Ecdysone initiates secretion
of a new cuticle and digestion of the old one, followed by the ecdysis
behavior. He showed that in contrast to adult eclosion, the synchrony of larval
ecdysis does not arise from circadian gating of the ecdysis behavior itself (1698). That the circadian clock gates
PTTH has been confirmed even in distantly related insect species.
John B. Power (GB), Sharon E. Cummins (GB), and Edward C. Cocking
(GB) took a first step towards in vitro
somatic hybridization in plants when they achieved the fusion of isolated
protoplasts (1361).
Patricia A.
Black-Cleworth (US) discovered that weakly electric fish use their electric
organs for social communication such as aggressiveness, submission, and
probably courtship (148).
Maurice E.
Shils (US), William L. Wright (US), Alan D. Turnbull (US), and Frank J. Brescia
(US) were the first to attempt home parenteral nutrition (HPN) with a patient.
The patient was a woman who had undergone massive small bowel resection for a
recurrent desmoid tumor invading the superior mesenteric artery (1518).
Workers in
Switzerland at Sandoz Ltd. while looking for new antifungal agents discovered
the cyclosporins. Crude extracts of two strains of fungi imperfecti (Cyclindrocapon lucidium Booth and Tolypocladium inflatum Gams) from the
soil of Norway's Hardaanger Fjord showed marginal antifungal activity in vitro but contained a compound that
would revolutionize transplant surgery.
Artur
Ruegger (CH), Max Kuhn (CH), Heinz Lichti (CH), Hans-Rudolf Loosli (CH), René
Huguenin (CH), Charles Quiquerez (CH), and Albert von Wartburg (CH) discovered
the antibiotic and immunosuppressive agent, cyclosporin
A that is produced by Trichoderma
polysporum (1446).
Jean-Francois
Borel (CH), Camille Feurer (FR), Hans Ulrich Gubler (CH), Hartmann R. Stahelin
(US), C. Magnée (), Robert M. Merion (US), David J.G. White (GB), Sathia Thiru
(GB), Douglas B. Evans (US), and Roy Y. Calne (GB) found that the substance,
called cyclosporin (cyclosporine), appeared to have exquisite
immuno-suppressant properties—controlling organ rejection without knocking out
all resistance to infection (161-163; 1145).
Ray L.
Powles (GB), A. John Barrett (US), Hugh M. Clink (GB), Humphrey E.M. Kay (GB),
John P. Sloane (GB), Timothy J. McElwain (GB), Roy Y. Calne (GB), David J.G.
White (GB), Sathia Thiru (GB), Douglas B. Evans (US), Paul McMaster (GB), David
C. Dunn (GB), Graham N. Craddock (GB), Barry D. Pentlow (GB), and Keith Rolles
(GB) confirmed that cyclosporin increased survival rate for both bone marrow
and organ transplantation without immunosuppression (251; 1363).
Cyclosporine was the first immunosuppressive medication powerful enough to
allow transplants to become life-saving treatments, rather than experimental
research.
Ronald M.
Wenger (CH) worked out the complete structural analysis and synthesis of
cyclosporin A and cyclosporin H (1795; 1796).
Elizabeth A.
Emmel (US), Cornelis L. Verweij (US), David B. Durand (US), Kay M. Higgins
(US), Elizabeth Lacy (US), and Gerald R. Crabtree (US) showed that cyclosporin
A either directly inhibits the function of nuclear proteins critical to T
lymphocyte activation or inhibits the action of a more proximal member of the
signal transmission cascade leading from the antigen receptor to the nucleus (507).
Peter A.
Bretscher (CA) and Melvin Cohn (US) proposed the two-signal theory of
lymphocyte activation. This theory states that for an effector lymphocyte to
become stimulated it must receive two signals, one from an antigen the other
from a helper T cell (192). This had
already been demonstrated by Henry Neumann Claman (US), Edward A. Chaperon
(US), and R. Fraser Triplett (US) (303; 304).
Richard K.
Gershon (GB) and Kazunari Kondo (JP) found that thymus dependent bone marrow
derived B cells are incapable of becoming tolerant unless they interact with
thymus dependent cells (T cells) (610).
Peter J.
McCullagh (AU), Richard K. Gershon (GB), and Kazunari Kondo (JP) discovered
suppressor T lymphocytes (611; 1127).
Harvey I.
Cantor (US) and Richard Marcy Asofsky (US) discovered that it is T cells, which
damage the host in the graft-versus-host response. The response was shown to
involve two populations of T cells interacting synergistically, one from thymus
tissue and the other from either spleen or lymph nodes (254).
Joseph H.
Coggin, Jr. (US), Kathleen R. Ambrose (US), and Norman G. Anderson (US)
discovered that when cells are transformed into cancer cells by simian virus 40
(SV40) there occurs a reexpression of cellular genes normally expressed in a
preceding state of differentiation, i.e., in fetal life (319).
Beatrice
Mintz (US), Karl Illmensee (US), Virginia E. Papaioannou (US), Michael W.
McBurney (CA), Richard L. Gardner (GB), and Martin John Evans (GB), working
with a teratoma (a tumor originating when cells from an early embryo are
transplanted to an adult environment) found that when this tumor is
transplanted back into a blastocyst, i.e., an early embryo, they return to
normal (1170; 1302). This is
sometimes referred to as the anachronistic origin of cancer.
Alice S.
Huang (US), David Baltimore (US), and Martha Stampfer (US) discovered that the
single stranded RNA genome of vesicular stomatitis virus behaves as a negative
strand, which generates positive strand mRNAs complementary to itself (810).
Thomas Dean
Pollard (US), Emma Shelton (US), Robert R. Weihing (US), and Edward David Korn
(US) showed that amoeba cytoplasm contains actin
filaments, which form the typical arrowheads when reacted with rabbit heavy meromyosin (1351).
David J.
DeRosier (GB-US), Peter B. Moore (US), Aaron Klug (ZA-GB), R. Anthony Crowther
(GB), Linda A. Amos (GB), and John T. Finch (GB) described techniques for the
reconstruction of three-dimensional structures from electron micrographs (377; 426; 1194).
Robert L.
Bennett (US), Michael H. Malamy (US), Harry Rosenberg (AU), Robert G. Gerdes
(AU), Kenneth P. Strickland (CA), Kaye Chegwidden (AU), Gail R. Willsky (US),
and Franklin M. Harold (US) discovered in studies of Escherichia coli a set of four phosphate transport systems, each of
which carried 32Pi into the cell (123; 608; 1434; 1435; 1817).
Hamilton
Othanel Smith (US) and Kent W. Wilcox (US) isolated a new restriction enzyme
from Haemophilus influenzae. The
restriction activity of this enzyme, named HindII,
differed from those previously discovered in two important ways. First, the
restriction activity is separate from the modification activity. Second, it
cleaves DNA predictably, cutting within its recognition sequence (1560).
Thomas J.
Kelly, Jr. (US), Hamilton Othanol Smith (US), and Kent W. Wilcox (US)
determined the base sequence recognized by the restriction endonuclease, Hind II (928; 1560).
Keith Robert
Yamamoto (US), Bruce Michael Alberts (US), Ronald M. Evans (US), Neal C.
Birnberg (US), Michael Geoffrey Rosenfeld (US), Bert W. O’Malley (US), Merry
Rubin Sherman (US), David O. Toft (US), Jean-Claude Courvalin (FR),
Marie-Madeleine Bouton (FR), Étienne Émile Baulieu (FR), Pierre Nuret (FR), and
Pierre M. Chambon (FR), Marilyn I. Evans (US), Lisa J. Hager (US), G. Stanley
McKnight (US), Eileen R. Mulvihill (US), Jean-Paul LePennec (FR), Alan W. Steggles
(US), Thomas C. Spelsberg (US), Pierre Pennequin (FR), and Robert Tod Schimke
(US) identified steroid hormone receptors and their functions. These hormones
plus their receptor represent an active complex which functions by interacting
with regulatory proteins, which share the following. All these proteins have at
least three binding sites. One binds the hormone recognized by the receptor.
Interacting with the hormone activates a second region on the protein, which
contains two zinc ions. This activated region binds the edges of bases exposed
in the DNA major grooves. The recognized major groove base sequence is a
control region. The third region directly or indirectly promotes initiation of
transcription by RNA polymerase II
or, in some cases, inhibits transcription (354; 521; 522; 1134; 1206; 1264; 1592; 1854-1856).
George H.
Sack, Jr. (US) and Daniel Nathans (US) were the first to use polyacrylamide gel
electrophoresis as a simple and rapid means of separating DNA restriction
fragments (1453).
Morton
Mandel (US) and Akiko High (JP) found that Escherichia
coli becomes markedly competent for transformation by foreign DNA when
cells are suspended in cold calcium chloride solution and subjected to a brief
heat shock at 42°C. They also found that cells in early to mid-log growth could
be rendered more competent than can cells in other stages of growth (762; 1102).
Kenneth H.
Nealson (US), Terry Platt (US) and John Woodland Hastings (US) postulated that
the enzyme luciferase is controlled
not by some mechanism inside each bacterial cell but by a molecular messenger
(autoinducer) that travels between cells as it accumulates in the growth medium (1219).
Anatol
Eberhard (US) found that the autoinducer does exist (480).
Choh Hao Li
(CN-US), David Chung (US), Waleed Danho (DE-US), Kalman Kovacs (HU), and
Yolande Kovacs-Petres (US) synthesized the pituitary human growth hormone
(HGH) or somatatropin, the
largest protein molecule yet put together in the laboratory (383; 384; 968; 1035).
Robert Huber
(DE) determined the atomic structure of insect hemoglobin (812).
Phillip
Periman (US) was the first to demonstrate that antibody production persisted
when a lymphoid cell was fused with an established cell line (1326).
Louis Lim
(GB), Evangelos S. Canellakis (GR-US), Mary Patricia Edmonds (US), Maurice H.
Vaughan, Jr. (US), Hiroshi Nakazato (US), Se Yong Lee (US), Jozef Mendecki
(US), and George Brawerman (US) discovered that in animal cells messenger RNA
is terminated and perhaps stabilized by the addition of polyadenylic acid
sequences (492; 1014; 1054).
Thomas W.
Keenan (US), Wayne N. Yunghans (US), D. James Morré (US), C.M. Huang (), Sally
E. Nyquist (US), and Rita Barr (US), William D. Merritt (US), and Carole A.
Lembi (US) showed that newly synthesized membrane lipids of plant and animal
cells are first inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum and may later appear in
the membranes of organelles such as mitochondria and the plasma membrane (924; 1196; 1197; 1262; 1863).
Paul
Greengard (US), Jacqueline F. Kuo (US), and Howard Schulman (US) identified
cGMP- and Ca2 -calmodulin-dependent kinases, which established that second
messengers other than cAMP were also involved in brain signaling mechanisms (670; 979; 1494; 1495).
Herbert Röller (US) and Karl H. Dahm (DE-US)
developed the methodology for in vitro
culture of insect endocrine glands. This facilitated the extraction of hormones (1425).
Geoffrey A.
Parker (GB) proposed that when a female mates with several partners rather than
with a single male, the potential exists for sperm competition to occur,
between the gametes of rival males, for access to her ova (1310).
Saimon
Gordon (US), Zanvil Alexander Cohn (US), and Carolyn S. Ripps (US) produced
high yields of mouse macrophage-melanocyte heterokaryons and
macrophage-macrophage homokaryons through the virus-induced fusion of cells
spread on a glass surface. These observations indicate that typical macrophage
properties cease to be expressed in heterokaryons, and melanocyte functions
presumably predominate in heterokaryons and hybrids (646; 647).
Behzad Mohit
(US) and Kang Fan (US) discovered that if two cells of the same general lineage
are fused they will both express genetic information (1184).
Sonja M.
Buckley (US) and Jordi Casals-Ariet (ES-US) isolated and characterized the Lassa fever virus
(named for the Nigerian town where it first appeared) (220). Lassa fever is an acute viral illness
that occurs in West Africa.
In 1973, biologists in Sierra Leone, aided by the Yale and Centers
for Disease Control (CDC) teams, determined that Lassa virus spread from wild
rats to humans (1188).
Bessel Kok
(NL-US), Bliss Forbush III (), and Marion P. McGloin (US) proposed that the
photolytic (water-splitting) reaction associated with photosystem 2 of
photosynthesis uses two molecules of water and proceeds in four steps, each
step liberating an electron; oxygen being a waste product (962).
Leendert C.
van Loon (NL) and Albert van Kammen (NL) discovered that additional proteins
associated with systemic acquired resistance (SAR) are induced in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants that react
hypersensitively to tobacco mosaic virus (1724). These are now well known as
pathogenesis-related proteins (PRs), novel proteins that are induced in
pathological or related situations.
Angela
Schlumbaum (CH), Felix Mauch (CH), Urs Vögeli (CH), and Thomas Boller (CH)
found that fungal attack, as well as ethylene, induced a chitinase in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) leaves that could
act as a potent inhibitor of fungal growth (1486).
Marianne B.
Sela-Buurlage (NL), Anne S. Ponstein (NL), Sandra A. Bres-Vloemans (NL), Leo S.
Melchers (NL), Peter J.M. van den Elzen (NL), and Ben J.C. Cornelissen (NL)
reported evidence that the pathogen-inducible, apoplastic PRs do not contribute
much to resistance against the inducer (but may still play a role in SAR
against subsequent attack), whereas the constitutive, vacuolar counterparts may
readily attack invading pathogens upon rupture of the tonoplast (1503).
Michel
Legrand (FR), Serge Kauffmann (FR), Pierrette Geoffroy (FR), and Bernard Fritig
(FR) found that some of the virus-induced tobacco PRs possess endochitinase activity (1018).
Serge
Kauffmann (FR), Michel Legrand (FR), Pierrette Geoffroy (FR), and Bernard
Fritig (FR) found that some of the virus-induced tobacco PRs possess endo-b-1,3-glucanase activity (918). Note: These results provided a first explanation for why SAR was
effective not only against viruses but also against other types of pathogens.
Felix Mauch
(CH), Brigette Mauch-Mani (CH), and Thomas Boller (CH) reported that the
nonhost pathogen Fusarium solani f.
sp. phaseolicola induced both chitinase and glucanase activities in pea (Pisum sativum) pods and that
combinations of the purified chitinases and glucanases could fully explain the
inhibitory action of protein extracts from the pods on the in vitro growth of various pathogenic and saprophytic fungi (1121). Note: These data clearly indicated that pathogen-inducible
hydrolytic enzymes contribute to the inhibition of potential fungal pathogens
and the reduction of disease.
Martin G.
Weigert (US), Italo M. Cesari (VE), Shirlee J. Yonkovich (US), and Melvin Cohn
(US) discovered hypermutation in the lambda
light chain of mouse antibody DNA (1779).
Delia B.
Budzko (AR-US) and Hans Joachim Müller-Eberhard (DE-US-DE) reported the
cleavage of the fourth component of human complement (C4) by C1 esterase and isolation and
characteristics of the low molecular weight product (221).
Eleanor H.
Slifer (US) reviewed evidence for minute pores or openings that penetrate the
otherwise impermeable cuticle that covers insect chemoreceptors. It is through
these pores that odors pass to stimulate the sensory neurons (1554).
Tsuneo
Tomita (JP) showed that following the illumination of a retinal rod cell its
membrane became hyperpolarized due to a decrease in permeability to sodium ions (1685).
Julie L.
Schnapf (US), Robert N. McBurney (US), David R. Copenhagen (US), and Denis A.
Baylor (US) determined that this hyperpolarization traveled along the membrane
to the synaptic terminal at the other end of the cell where the nerve impulse
arises (1488-1490).
Kenneth M.
Yamada (US), Brian S. Spooner (US), and Norman K. Wessells (US) studied the 50
angstrom thin filament of the cell
and provided the necessary correlative link: only when there was 50 angstrom
filament structure was there also motile function (1578; 1851; 1852).
James A.
Spudich (US) and Shin Lin (US) showed that cytochalasin B (an alkaloid)
specifically binds to purified muscle actin, supporting the conclusion that the
thin filaments required for cell
movement are indeed actin-like proteins (1581).
Brian S.
Spooner (US), John F. Ash (US), Joan T. Wrenn (US), Robin B. Frater (US),
Norman K. Wessells (US), and Carter R. Holladay (US) confirmed the work of
Spudich and Lin (1576; 1577).
Bernard Katz
(RU-GB) and Ricardo Miledi (GB) determined that acetylcholine changes the
permeability on the receptor surface of the nerve synapse by opening ion gates (914).
Donald R.
Hoff (US), Michael H. Fisher (US), Richard J. Bochis (US), Aino Lusi (US),
Frank S. Waksmunski (US), John R. Egerton (US), Jerome J. Yakstis (US), Ashton
C. Cuckler (US), and William Cecil Campbell (IE-US) described a new broad-spectrum anthelmintic:
2-(4-thiazolyl)-5-isopropoxycarbonylamino-benzimidazole (780).
Albert Herz
(DE), Klaus Albus (US), Jan Metys (DE), Peter Muenchen Schubert (DE) and
Hansjörg Teschemacher (DE) found that microinjection of opioids into various brain
areas and application of opioids into separated parts of the cerebroventricular
system in rabbits revealed that complete antinociception can be obtained from
caudal parts of the periaqueductal grey and adjacent areas of the floor of the
fourth ventricle (757).
Aubrey E. Boyd III (US), Harold E. Lebovitz (US), and John B. Pfeiffer
(US) showed clearly that the administration of
L-dopa, a precursor of central
nervous system catecholamines, stimulated the release of growth hormone in man.
The data indicated that a dopaminergic mechanism in the median
eminence or norepinepheine sensitive
site in the hypothalamus was involved in human growth hormone regulation (174).
Derek A. Radcliffe (GB) discovered changes attributable to pesticides in
egg breakage frequency and eggshell thickness in some British birds (1388).
Walter
Plowright (GB), C.T. Perry (GB), and Mike A. Peirce (GB) confirmed transovarial
infection with African Swine Fever virus in the argasid tick, Ornithodoros
moubata porcinus, Walton (1348).
Leon Rosen
(US), Robert B. Tesh (US), Jih Ching Lien (US), and John H. Cross (US)
described transovarial transmission of Japanese encephalitis virus by
mosquitoes (1430).
Robert B.
Tesh (US) and Donald A. Shroyer (US) described the mechanism of arbovirus
transovarial transmission in mosquitoes: San Angelo virus in Aedes
albopictùs (1664).
Paul G.
Lendvay (AU) and Earl R. Owen (AU) pioneered microsurgery techniques when they
rejoined an amputated index finger (1025).
Robert Ellis
Shope (US), Frederick A. Murphy (US), Alyne Keiran Harrison (US), Ottis R.
Causey (US), Graham E. Kemp (US), D. I. H. Simpson (IE), and Dorothy L. Moore
(CA) reported that Lagos bat virus and an isolate from shrews (IbAn 27377),
both from Nigeria, were found to be bullet-shaped and to mature
intracytoplasmically in association with a distinct matrix. They were related
to, but readily distinguishable from, rabies virus and each other by complement
fixation and neutralization tests. The three viruses, including rabies, form a
subgrouping within the rhabdoviruses (1522).
Nils-Erik
Birger Andén (SE), Sherrel G. Butcher (SE), Hans R. Corrodi (SE), Kjell Fuxe
(SE), and Urban Ungerstedt (SE) reported that chlorpromazine and similar drugs
(neuroleptics) block dopamine (prolactin-inhibiting hormone) receptors but not
noradrenaline receptors (31).
Isaac
Djerassi (US), Jung Sun Kim (US), Chulee Mitrakul (US), Udom Suvansri (US), and
W. Ciesielka (US) invented leukocyte filtration (leukopheresis) and popularized
leukocyte transfusions (444; 445).
Isaac
Djerassi (US) and Jung Sun Kim (US) invented gravity leukopheresis (443).
Chester B.
Martin, Jr. (US) and Elizabeth Mapelsden Ramsey (US) reported that propelled by
the force of fetal blood pressure, fetal blood courses through the umbilical
arteries into the subdivisions which run laterally through the chorionic plate.
Finally, the vessels dip into the substance of the placenta and travel through
the arborizations of the fetal villous tree. They proceed in comparable
subdivisions to the terminal villi. There the fetal capillary bed, coming into
its closest proximity to maternal blood in the intervillous space, forms the
ultimate area of matemalfetal exchange. Oxygenated blood returns via vessels
running through the same villous stems to the umbilical vein and thence to the
fetal body (1114).
Thomas
Martin Barratt (GB), Peter N. McLaine (GB-CA), and James F. Soothill (GB)
developed a method by which a single voided urine sample could be used to
estimate quantitative proteinuria (91).
Jay M. Ginsberg
(US), Bruce S. Chang (US), Richard A. Matarese (US), and Serafino Garella (US)
also developed a technique for use of single voided urine samples to estimate
quantitative proteinuria (629).
Millard Bass
(US) investigated an epidemic of 110 sudden sniffing deaths without
plastic bag suffocation which occurred in American youths during the 1960's.
Volatile hydrocarbons most frequently involved were trichloroethane and
fluorinated refrigerants. Sudden sniffing death occurred in all socioeconomic
groups, with a preponderance in the suburban middle-income white family. Severe
cardiac arrhythmia, resulting from light plane anesthesia, and intensified by
hypercapnia or stress or activity or a combination of these, is the most likely
explanation for sniffing death (94).
Donald R.
Taves (US), Bill W. Fry (US), Richard B. Freeman (US), and Alastair J. Gillies
(US) measured the concentrations of inorganic fluoride and nonvolatile organic
fluoride in a patient with nephrotoxic effects following methoxyflurane
anesthesia. Concentrations of both were markedly elevated compared to two patients
who received methoxyflurane without subsequent nephrotoxic effects. Indirect
evidence suggests that the inorganic fluoride concentration was sufficient to
account for the nephrotoxic effects. The prolonged elevation of inorganic
fluoride observed can be explained on the basis of the breakdown of the
nonvolatile organic fluoride to inorganic fluoride and the poor renal clearance
of both types (1651).
Raymond J.
Shamberger (US) reported that in 5 of 6 nondietary tumor-promotion experiments,
sodium selenide significantly reduced the number of tumors in mice. In 2 of
these 6 experiments, vitamin E also significantly reduced the number of animals
with tumors. In all 6 experiments, both selenium and vitamin E decreased the
total number of papillomas. Another antioxidant and 2 lysosomal stabilizers
were ineffective. After 19 weeks of administration, sodium selenide did not
significantly lower the number of mice with 3-methylchol-anthrene-induced
papillomas nor after 30 weeks of administration did it reduce the number of
cancers. Nonetheless, the total number of papillomas and cancers were greatly
decreased. Torula yeast diets containing 1.0 part per million (ppm) sodium
selenite given to mice markedly decreased the number of skin tumors induced by
7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene plus croton oil and benzo[a]pyrene. Torula diets
containing 0.1 ppm sodium selenite and a commercial diet (Rockland) did not
decrease tumor incidence (1509).
C. Lowell
Edwards (US) and Raymond L. Hayes (US) reported that gallium has an affinity
for some human as well as animal neoplasms. Carrier-free gallium citrate Ga 67
administered intravenously is localized in a variety of malignant tumors that
can then be detected on scintiscans. Nonosseous as well as skeletal lesions can
be seen, including some that are not otherwise detectable. Gallium localization
is greatest in viable tumor, less in fibrotic or necrotic tumor, and diminished
by irradiation and effective chemotherapy (494).
Alexander
Breslow (US) found from a retrospective study of 98 cutaneous melanomas that both tumor
thickness and stage of invasion are of value in assessing prognosis. By
combining these two criteria it was possible to identify a group of 45 patients
only one of whom developed recurrent or metastatic disease. These criteria may
be of value in selecting patients for prophylactic lymph node dissection (191).
William S.
Fields (US), Valentina Maslenikov (UY), John Stirling Meyer (US), William K.
Hass (US), Richard D. Remington (US), and Mary Macdonald (US) provided a
progress report of prognosis following surgery or nonsurgical treatment for
transient cerebral ischemic attacks and cervical carotid artery lesions (539).
William B.
Kannel (US), Philip A. Wolf (US), Joel Verter (US), and Patricia M. McNamara
(US) found that control of hypertension, labile or fixed, systolic or
diastolic, at any age, in either sex appears to be central to prevention of
atherothrombotic brain infarction (ABI). Prospectively, hypertension proved the
most common and potent precursor of ABI's. Its contribution was direct and
could not be attributed to factors related both to stroke and hypertension.
Asymptomatic, causal "hypertension" was associated with a risk of ABI
about four times that of normotensives. The probability of occurrence of an ABI
was predicted no better with both blood pressure measurements or the mean
arterial pressure than with systolic alone. Since there was no diminishing
impact of systolic pressure with advancing age, the concept that systolic
elevations are, even in the aged, innocuous is premature. Comparing
normotensives and hypertensives in each sex, women did not tolerate
hypertension better than men (897).
Harold James
Charles Swan (US), William Ganz (US), James Forrester (US), Harold Marcus (US),
George Diamond (US), and David Chonette (US) developed a self-guiding flow-directed catheter, which permitted
catheterization of the right side of the heart and pulmonary artery without the use of fluoroscopy and with minimal
complications. The addition of multiple sensors has allowed for the quantitative measurement of cardiac function. This
development has permitted the application of quantitative cardiac
catheterization procedures to the management of the critically ill (1636).
Alex S.
Gallus (AU), John F. Cade (AU), John K. Clareborough (AU), Jack Hirsh (AU-CA),
John Hugh Nicholas Bett (AU), Peter A. Castaldi (AU), G.S. Hale (AU), James P.
Isbister (AU), K.H. McLean (AU), Edward F. O'Sullivan (AU), James C. Biggs
(AU), Colin N. Chesterman (AU), Jack Hirsh (AU), Iryna G. McDonald (AU), John
J. Morgan (AU), and Murray Rosenbaum (AU) did work on oral anticoagulants that
led to the development of the International Normalized Ratio, an advance in
laboratory diagnosis and to clinical trials that assessed the efficacy and
risk: benefit ratio of anticoagulants in a variety of clinical situations (133; 247; 596).
Hershel Jick
(US), Olli S. Miettinen (US), Samuel Shapiro (US), George P. Lewis (US), Victor
Siskind (US), and Dennis Slone (US)satisfied the urgent need for information
about clinical drug effects by utilizing a large-scale comprehensive drug surveillance
program designed to permit the detection of unsuspected side effects and drug
interactions, the quantitation of known effects, and the evaluation of the role
of influencing factors. Such a program, the Boston Collaborative Drug
Surveillance Program, now involving eight hospitals, is described (866).
Gene Elden
Likens (US), Frederick Herbert Bormann (US), Noye M. Johnson (US), Donald W. Fisher
(US), and Robert S. Pierce (US) undertook the large-scale manipulation of a
forest ecosystem at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in the White Mountains of
New Hampshire. This represents the first planned manipulations of an ecosystem
to ascertain the importance of vegetation in regulating biogeochemical cycles.
They concluded that vegetation is very important in influencing the processes
governing the retention of essential nutrients in forest ecosystems. The biotic
community is not simply a passive respondent to available abiotic resources,
but instead seems instrumental in regulating that availability (1048).
Thomas H.
Frazzetta (US) suggests that bolyerine snakes with their unusual anatomy may be
an example of what Richard Goldschmidt meant when he said that occasionally,
a macromutation might, by sheer good fortune, adapt an organism to a new mode
of life, a "hopeful monster" in his terminology. Bolyerines are distinct from all known
amniotes, both living and fossil, in that the maxillary bone is divided into
anterior and posterior sections by a movable joint. Such a modification has
mechanical characteristics adaptive for feeding (577).
Daniel H. Janzen () and Joseph H. Connell (US) independently proposed
that
the maintenance of tree species biodiversity in tropical rainforest is due to a
density- or distance-dependent factor in recruitment of seedlings from adults
of tropical tree species due to host-specific predators or pathogens. These
predators/pathogens that specifically target a species make the areas directly
surrounding that parent tree (the seed producing tree) inhospitable for the
survival of seedlings (332; 846). This is referred to as the
Janzen-Connell Hypothesis. Subsequent research has demonstrated the
applicability of the Janzen–Connell hypothesis in temperate settings as well.
Eric R.
Pianka (US) stated that natural selection in saturated environments (where
demand for resources approximates supply) is density dependent, favoring
competitive ability at the expense of slow growth and delayed reproduction. In
contrast, in competitive vacuums (resource supplies greatly exceed demand),
selection is independent of population density and favors rapid growth, early
reproduction, and short life spans. Concepts of r and K selection are
clarified, and their correlates listed (1343).
Robert C.
Bolles (US) starts with the assumption that animals have innate defensive
behaviors, such as freezing, fleeing and fighting. He proposes that if an
avoidance response is rapidly learned, then that response must necessarily be
one of the animal's species-specific defense reactions, or part of such a
reaction. Some reinforcement-produced learning does occur with more slowly
learned avoidance responses, but it is slow, uncertain, and not based on the
conventional mechanism (159).
Scott E.
Monroe (US), Linda E. Atkinson (US), and Ernst Knobil (US) performed a
systematic investigation of control of the menstrual cycle, with the rhesus
monkey, Macaca mulatta, as an
experimental animal (1191).
Jerram L.
Brown (US) and Gordon H. Orians (US) predicted “cost-benefit models for the evolution of space-related aggression point
to the importance of measuring the temporal and spatial distribution of resources, the costs of exclusion, and the rates of predation on clumped and spaced
individuals. Future studies will
concern themselves primarily with
measuring differences in fitness
of individuals of the same species
under different conditions and with
analyzing changes in spacing patterns in species which exploit a variety of
environments. Thus, the study of
spacing may rapidly develop into
a theoretically rigorous and more experimentally oriented science” (208).
James M.
Bowler (AU), Rhys Jones (AU), Harry Allen (AU), Alan G. Thorne (AU), and Mike
Barbetti (AU) reported Lake Mungo 1 (Mungo Lady) which was discovered in 1969
and is one of the world's oldest known cremations (81; 171; 172). Note: Lake Mungo is in New South Wales,
Australia.
J. Desmond
Clark (US) attributed the great success of Homo
sapiens sapiens over other hominids to the development of speech. “The
achievement of awareness and integration, as with the transmission of knowledge,
is in the main through speech” (309).
