21. James Watson - Biography

    Extractions: James Dewey Watson was born in Chicago, Ill., on April 6th, 1928, as the only son of James D. Watson, a businessman, and Jean Mitchell. His father's ancestors were originally of English descent and had lived in the midwest for several generations. His mother's father was a Scottish-born taylor married to a daughter of Irish immigrants who arrived in the United States about 1840. Young Watson's entire boyhood was spent in Chicago where he attended for eight years Horace Mann Grammar School and for two years South Shore High School. He then received a tuition scholarship to the University of Chicago , and in the summer of 1943 entered their experimental four-year college. In 1947, he received a B.Sc. degree in Zoology. During these years his boyhood interest in bird-watching had matured into a serious desire to learn genetics. This became possible when he received a Fellowship for graduate study in Zoology at Indiana University in Bloomington, where he received his Ph.D. degree in Zoology in 1950. At Indiana, he was deeply influenced both by the geneticists H. J. Muller

Watson is best known for his discovery of the structure of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), for which he shared with Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They proposed that the DNA molecule takes the shape of a double helix, an elegantly simple structure that resembles a gently twisted ladder. The rails of the ladder are made of alternating units of phosphate and the sugar deoxyribose; the rungs are each composed of a pair of nitrogen-containing nucleotides. This research emphasized a concept central to the emerging field of molecular biology: understanding the structure of a molecule can give clues about how it functions. Because each nucleotide within a rung of the DNA ladder is always paired with the same complementary nucleotide, one half of the molecule can serve as a template for the construction of the other half. This complementary pairing explains how identical copies of parental DNA can be passed on to two daughter cells. During cell division, the DNA helix "unzips," and two new molecules are formed from the half-ladder templates. Later research showed that the precise sequence of nucleotide rungs of the DNA ladder directs the manufacture of proteins and determines the identity of a living organism. Research on DNA-protein interactions launched a revolution in biology that led to modern recombinant DNA techniques.

From 1951 to 1953, he did postgraduate research with the British biophysicist Francis Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge. Based on work done at the laboratory of the British biophysicist Maurice Wilkins , Watson and Crick worked out the double helix structure of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule, a substance that transmits the genetic characteristics from one generation to the next. Experimental proof for their model was later provided by the American biochemist Arthur Kornberg . For their work on the DNA molecule, Watson, Crick , and Wilkins shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. In 1968, Watson became director of the Cold Springs Harbor Laboratory of Quantitative Biology, in New York State. Watson wrote

    Extractions: Jochen Kumm James Watson, one of the most influential researchers in the short history of the field of genetics, was born on April 6, 1928, in Chicago. A precocious student, he entered the University of Chicago at the age of 15 and graduated in 1947. Both Harvard and CalTech turned him down for graduate studies, apparently unappreciative of his extensive background in the classics and his passion for bird watching. So Watson ended up at Indiana, where he gathered up his Ph.D. in genetics, setting out on the "search for the gene." In 1950, Watson joined the Cavendish laboratories at a time when Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins, Rosalind Franklin , and Linus Pauling were racing to determine the structure of DNA. The X-ray crystallography experiments of Franklin and Wilkins provided much information about DNA - in particular that DNA was a molecule in which two "strands" formed a tightly linked pair. Crick and Watson made the intuitive leap: in 1953, they proposed that the structure of DNA was a winding helix in which pairs of bases (adenine paired with thymine and guanine paired with cytosine) held the two strands together. The Watson-Crick model of the DNA double helix provided enormous impetus for research in the emerging fields of molecular genetics and biochemistry, and Crick, Watson, and Wilkins were awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962. In subsequent decades, Watson taught at Harvard and CalTech, and he became director of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York. He has made considerable contributions to the understanding of the genetic code, in which triplets of DNA base pairs identify amino acids and thereby control protein synthesis facilitated by DNA templates.

    Extractions: James Dewey Watson, one of the most important researchers in the field of genetics, was born on April 6, 1928, in Chicago, Illinois. Being a very good student, he enrolled at the University of Chicago when he was only 15 years old and graduated in 1947. However, both Cal. Tech and Harvard University turned him down for their graduate programs. So he ended up in Indiana, where he finished a Ph. D. in Genetics, and received a National Research Fellowship to spend a year in Copenhagen. At a conference held at the Zoological Station in Naples, he met Maurice Wilkins, whose work convinced him to direct his research towards the structure of nucleic acids and proteins. In 1950, Watson joined Cavendish Laboratories where many other important people involved in archeology, such as Francis Crick , Maurice Wilkins, and Rosalind Franklin were trying to determine the makeup of DNA. They had already determined that DNA was a molecule with two "strands" that formed a tight pair. It was Crick and Watson who made the next big discovery. They proposed that DNA was a winding helix in which pairs of bases held the strands together. This model of the DNA double helix became an important item of research in the areas of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics. In 1968, Watson published his DNA discovery and entitled it

April 6, 1928, Chicago, Ill., U.S.), American geneticist and biophysicist who played a crucial role in the discovery of the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA ), the substance that is the basis of heredity. For this accomplishment he was awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine with Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins Watson enrolled at the University of Chicago when only 15 and graduated in 1947. From his virus research at Indiana University (Ph.D., 1950), and from the experiments of microbiologist Oswald Avery, which proved that DNA affects hereditary traits, Watson became convinced that the gene could be understood only after something was known about nucleic acid molecules. He learned that scientists working in the Cavendish Laboratories at the University of Cambridge were using photographic patterns made by X rays that had been shot through protein crystals to study the structure of protein molecules.

    Extractions: Watson was born in Chicago and studied there and at Indiana. He initially specialized in viruses but shifted to molecular biology and in 1951 he went to the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University, where he performed the work on DNA with Crick. In 1953 Watson returned to the USA. He became professor at Harvard 1961 and director of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory of Quantitative Biology 1968, and was head of the US government's Human Genome Project 1989-92. Crick and Watson envisaged DNA replication occurring by a parting of the two strands of the double helix, each organic base thus exposed linking with a nucleotide (from the free nucleotides within a cell) bearing the complementary base. Thus two complete DNA molecules would eventually be formed by this step-by-step linking of nucleotides, with each of the new DNA molecules comprising one strand from the original DNA and one new strand.
