Dr. Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin: Chemist, Crystallographer, Humanitarian In 1932 Dorothy Crowfoot graduated from Somerville College at Oxford with a degree in chemistry (her interest in chemistry and crystals began when she was young and was encouraged by her parents and their associates to develop this interest). While studying in the department of mineralogy and crystallography, she employed the physical science of X-ray crystallography (first developed by W. L. Bragg) to aid her in determining the structural arrangement of the atoms in simple salts and minerals such as thallium dialkyl halides. This was the first of what would be many X-ray studies. Dr. Hodgkin discovered that crystals are a solid composed of atoms arranged in a regular and repeated pattern. She later took this method one step further and used it to analyze more complex molecules.
In 1933 Dr. Hodgkin began working with J. D. Bernal on her doctorate degree. Bernal strengthened her lifelong interest in structural biology. She felt that the scientific world had ceased to know any boundaries while conducting her research with him. Dr. Hodgkin stated in a published paper regarding her work with Bernal, "…we explored the crystallography of a wide variety of natural products, the structure of liquids and particularly water, Rochelle salt, isomorphous replacement and phase determination, metal and pepsin crystals, and speculated about muscular contraction."
It was during this time that Dr. Hodgkin, along with Bernal, recorded the first X-ray diffraction pattern of a globular protein. These photographs were obtained from crystals of pepsin grown by John Philpot in Uppsala. These protein crystals were extremely difficult and tedious to work with in the early 1930s because of the lack of technology. Proteins are polymers, long chains of repeating units, that are larger and more complicated than other biological molecules. They perform their biological functions by folding over on themselves and assuming specific three-dimensional shapes.

In 1934, with J. D. Bernal in Cambridge, photographed for the first time single crystals of a protein - pepsin. First to determine the three-dimensional structure of a complex bio-organic molecule.
She determined the structure of cholesteryl iodide by x-ray diffraction in 1941-42 (published in 1945) in complete three-dimensional detail, at a time when no one else was determining complex structures in three dimensions because of the formidable calculations involved. Determined the structure of penicillin in 1944 (published in 1949), again in three-dimensional detail. Before her work there was only fragmentary and conflicting evidence on the structure, from chemical analysis, of this rather unstable molecule, which was of immense importance as an antibiotic during and immediately after World War II. Determined the structure of vitamin B-12 in 1956, using one of the first high-speed digital computers. This was by far the most complex molecule whose three-dimensional architecture had been established, and some of its unusual structural features were quite unanticipated.

    Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin
    Pharmaceutical Achiever
    by Mary Ellen Bowden Dorothy Hodgkin
    On the morning in May 1940 that the results of injecting four of eight infected mice with penicillin became known, an excited Ernst Chain encountered Dorothy Hodgkin on Parks Road in Oxford. He knew the brilliant young X-ray crystallographer from her Cambridge days, and as she later recalled, he had promised: “Some day we will have some crystals for you to work on.”
    Dorothy Crowfoot was born in Cairo, Egypt, to English parents. Although her formal schooling took place in England, she spent a significant part of her youth in the Middle East and North Africa, where her father was a school inspector. Both her parents were authorities in archaeology, and she almost followed the family vocation; but from childhood she was fascinated by minerals and crystals. She enjoyed using a portable mineral analysis kit given to her when she became interested in analyzing pebbles she and her sister found in the stream that ran through the Crowfoots' garden in Khartoum, Sudan.
    When she was fifteen, her mother gave her

Hodgkin, Dorothy Crowfoot
English biochemist who analysed the structure of penicillin, insulin, and vitamin B12. Hodgkin was the first to use a computer to analyse the molecular structure of complex chemicals, and this enabled her to produce three-dimensional models. Nobel Prize for Chemistry 1964.
Crowfoot was born in Cairo and educated at Oxford. At Cambridge 1932-34 she developed the technique of X-ray investigation to the point at which it became a very useful analytical method; she then returned to Oxford until 1970, when she became chancellor of Bristol University.
Hodgkin studied the structures of calciferol (vitamin D2), lumisterol, and cholesterol iodide, the first complex organic molecule to be determined completely by X-ray crystallography.

Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin a British biochemist and crystallographer, won the 1964 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for "her determination by x-ray techniques of the structures of biologically important molecules." In other words she used x-rays to find the structural layouts of atoms and the overall molecular shape of over 100 molecules including: penicillin, vitamin B-12, vitamin D, and insulin. Hodgkin's improvements using x-ray crystallography elevated the technique to an important analytical tool. (Crystallography is a combination of physics, math, and chemistry.) Dorothy was born on May 10, 1910 in Cairo, Egypt. She obtained degrees from Oxford and Cambridge Universities. By 1934, Hodgkin correctly analyzed the molecules for cholesterol iodide. Several years later she confirmed the structure of vitamin B-12, with the help of one of the first electronic computers. Understanding the molecular structure of vitamin B-12 has helped scientists to understand how the human body uses B-12 to build red blood cells and prevent some types of anemia. Dorothy's discovery of the molecular layout of penicillin helped lead scientists to develop other antibiotics. As her discovery happened during World War II, this information aided scientists in helping to develop the antibiotics necessary to treat war injuries.

    Dorothy Crowfoot (-Hodgkin)
    Biochemikerin Dorothy Crowfoot * 12. Mai 1910 in Kairo Dorothy Crowfoot forschte über die Eigenschaften und Verhalten von Cholesterinen, Insulin, Penicilline und Vitamine und erhielt dafür im Jahre 1964 als dritte Frau überhaupt, den Nobelpreis für Chemie "für ihre Analyse der Struktur des Vitamins B12". Schon vor ihrer Nobelpreisehrung war sie durch den von ihr erstmals initiierten Einsatz der Röntgenstrukturanalyse bei der Strukturbestimmung von Makromolekülen bekannt geworden. 1937 heiratete Dorothy Crowfoot den Historiker Thomas Hodgkin. 1938 erkrankte sie kurz nach der Geburt ihres ersten Kindes an entzündlichem und unheilbarem Gelenkrheuma. Trotz der Verwachsungen ihrer Gelenke, und ungeachtet der schweren, schmerzhaften und entstellenden Krankheit blieb sie ihrer Arbeit und der Wissenschaft treu: "Trotz ihrer schrecklich verkrüppelten Finger und Handgelenke war sie so gut wie jeder im Labor und besser als die meisten", beschrieb einer ihrer Teamkollegen ihre Arbeit stolz. Überhaupt setzte sie sich für ihre Mitarbeiter ein, und immer wieder engagierte sie Frauen in ihre Arbeitsgruppe. Daneben war sie eine familienbewusste gute Mutter und Ehefrau.
