Emperor of Enzymes: A Biography of
Arthur Kornberg, Biochemist and Nobel Laureate
The famous Nobel Laureate
Arthur Kornberg had once stated and I quote: "Much has been said about the future impact of biotechnology on industrial development, but this does not yet apply to the less developed countries that lack this infrastructure and industrial strength.
Prof Brown has set up a biotech company building on the work of the late Nobel Laureate Dr
Arthur Kornberg, with whom he worked at Stanford University in the US looking for compounds which upset the enzyme structure of disease-causing cells.
Written by Nobel prize winner
Arthur Kornberg, "To all, young and old, who adore 'the little beasties.'" As a father of three sons, Kornberg told his boys bedtime stories about germs.
The National Library of Medicine, a constituent institute of the National Institutes of Health, in collaboration with the Stanford University Archives, announces the release of an extensive selection from the papers of biochemist
Arthur Kornberg (1918 - 2007), who received the 1959 Nobel Prize for his synthesis of DNA, on the Library's Profiles in Science Web site.
For his father,
Arthur Kornberg, the prize in 1959 should have been in chemistry.

Throughout the 1950s and '60s, advances in describing DNA structure and the genetic code catalyzed numerous basic scientific insights, such as
Arthur Kornberg's discovery in 1957 of DNA polymerase, the enzyme system that synthesizes DNA during cell replication.
Soon afterward the American biochemist
Arthur Kornberg (b.
Think about Walter Mondale in the 1968 hearings with
Arthur Kornberg. Kornberg telling him: You're wasting my time.
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Severo Ochoa of NYU College of Medicine and
Arthur Kornberg of Stanford University Medical School for their joint work on the chemistry of heredity.
This finding, says
Arthur Kornberg and coworker Deog Su Hwang, can shed light on embryonic development, mutations, and diseases such as cancer and AIDS.
