Gerty Radnitz Cori was the first American woman to win a Nobel Prize in Science. She was born in Prague, Czechoslovakia on August 15, 1896. At the age of 18, she entered medical school at the Carl Ferdinand University of Prague. Here she became fascinated with biochemistry because it applied chemistry to solve biological problems. In 1920 she married Carl Cori, whom she had known since the beginning of medical school. Unstable political and economic conditions in Europe forced them to emigrate. In 1922, Carl Cori took a position at the New York State Institute for the Study of Malignant Diseases in Buffalo. Gerty arrived six months later, after Carl had found her a position as an assistant pathologist at the Institute. They became U.S. citizens in 1931.

After they joined the Washington University School of Medicine in 1931, their discovery of the mechanism for blood glucose regulation earned them the Nobel Prize in 1947. Gerty Cori was the first American woman to be so honored. In addition, six eventual Nobel laureates received training in their laboratory. Carl Cori said of their remarkable collaboration: "Our efforts have been largely complementary, and one without the other would not have gone so far..."

Dezember 1896 in Prag State Institute for Study of Malignant Diseases Obwohl sie immer gemeinsam forschten, wurde vor allem Carl Cori bekannt. Eine Professur erhielt Gerty Cori erst 1947, in dem Jahr, als sie auch den Nobelpreis erhielt. Zehn Jahre später starb sie - anerkannt und hoch geehrt - an Myelofibrose, einer seltenen Erkrankung mit bindegewebiger Verödung des Knochenmarks. Obwohl die letzten Jahre von der Krankheit gezeichnet, war sie ihrer Lebensphilosophie immer treu geblieben: "Ich glaube, dass die Wunder des menschlichen Geistes in Kunst und Wissenschaft zum Ausdruck kommen, und ich sehe zwischen beiden keinen Gegensatz. Ehrlichkeit, vor allem intellektuelle Integrität, Mut und Freundlichkeit sind noch immer die Tugenden, die ich bewundere. Die Liebe zu meiner Arbeit und die Hingabe an sie sind für mich die Grundlage des Glücks."

In 1947 she was named professor of biochemistry at Washington University, a post she held for the rest of her life. From 1950 she sat on the board of directors of the National Science Foundation. The Coris' subsequent work led to the complete elucidation of the molecular structure of glycogen in 1952. Gerty Cori also contributed greatly to the understanding of glycogen storage diseases of children. She died in St. Louis, Missouri, on October 26, 1957

Extractions: American biochemists, husband-and-wife team whose discovery of a phosphate-containing form of the simple sugar glucose, and its universal importance to carbohydrate metabolism, led to an understanding of hormonal influence on the interconversion of sugars and starches in the animal organism. Their discoveries earned them (with Bernardo Houssay) the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1947. They met while students at the German University of Prague and were married in 1920, receiving their medical degrees the same year. Emigrating to the United States in 1922, they joined the staff of the Institute for the Study of Malignant Disease, Buffalo, N.Y. (1922-31). As faculty members of the Washington University medical school, St. Louis (from 1931), they discovered (1936) the activated intermediate, glucose 1-phosphate (phosphate bound to a specific carbon atom on the glucose molecule), known as the "Cori ester." They demonstrated that it represents the first step in the conversion into glucose of the animal storage carbohydrate glycogen, large quantities of which are found in the liver, andbecause the reaction is reversiblein some cases the last step in the conversion of blood glucose to glycogen. Six years later they isolated and purified the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the glycogen-Cori ester reaction, and with it they achieved the test-tube synthesis of glycogen in 1943. Proof of the interconversion allowed them to formulate the "Cori cycle," postulating that liver glycogen is converted to blood glucose that is reconverted to glycogen in muscle, where its breakdown to lactic acid provides the energy utilized in muscle contraction. The lactic acid is used to re-form glycogen in the liver. Studying the way in which hormones affect carbohydrate metabolism in animals, the Coris showed that epinephrine induces the formation of a type of phosphorylase enzyme favouring conversion of glycogen to activated glucose and that insulin causes the removal of sugar from the blood by promoting the addition of phosphate to glucose.
