Skou, Jens C., in full JENS CHRISTIAN SKOU (b. Oct. 8, 1918, Lemvig, Denmark), Danish biophysicist who (with Paul D. Boyer and John E. Walker ) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1997 for his discovery of the enzyme called sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na -K ATPase), which is found in the plasma membrane of animal cells and acts as a pump that exchanges sodium (Na ) for potassium (K Skou studied medicine at the University of Copenhagen and in 1954 earned a doctorate degree at Aarhus University, where he later taught. His research on ion-carrying enzymes was based on the work of Sir Alan Hodgkin and Richard Keynes, who followed the movements of sodium and potassium in a nerve cell following stimulation. The English scientists discovered that upon activation of the neuron, sodium ions flood the cell. The sodium concentration level is restored when ions are transported back across the membrane. This process requires energy, since transport occurs against a concentration gradient (from an area of low concentration to high concentration) and so was believed to require energy in the form of the energy-carrying molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) In the late 1950s Skou proposed that an enzyme is responsible for the transport of molecules through a cell's membrane. His work with the membranes of nerve cells from crabs led to the discovery of Na

The 1997 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Professor Jens Christian Skou The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded the 1997 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with one half to Professor Jens Christian Skou , University of Aarhus, Denmark for the first discovery of an ion-transporting enzyme, the Na ,K -ATPase. This enzyme maintains the balance of sodium and potassium ions in the living cell. The other half is shared by Professor Paul D. Boyer, University of California, Los Angeles, USA, and Dr. John E. Walker, Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom for their elucidation of the enzymatic mechanism underlying the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Professor Skou made his pioneer work at the Department of Physiology, University of Aarhus, where Professor Skou was employed as an assistant professor in 1947 and from 1963 as a full professor until he in 1978 was nominated to become the professor of biophysics at this university without advertising the post. Professor Skou published the discovery of the Na ,K -ATPase in 1957 in Biochimica et Biophysica Acta vol. 23, pp. 394-401:

Nobel Prize Winning Chemists Jens C. Skou The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1997 Jens C. Skou was born on October 8, 1918 into a wealthy family in Lemvig, a town in the western part of Denmark. His father Magnus Martinus Skou together with his brother Peter Skou were timber and coal merchants. They were four children, he was the oldest with a one year younger brother, a sister 4 years younger and another brother 7 years younger. When he was 12 years old his father died from pneumonia. When he was 15, he went to a boarding school. After three years he got his exam, it was in 1937. He told his mother that he would study medicine, and started two days later at the University of Copenhagen. He followed the plan and got his medical degree in the summer of 1944. In May and June 1944, they managed to get their exams. In 1947, he stopped clinical training, and got a position at the Institute for Medical Physiology at Aarhus University in order to write the planned doctoral thesis on the anaesthetic and toxic mechanism of action of local anaesthetics. During his time in Hjorring he met a very beautiful probationer, Ellen Margrethe Nielsen, with whome he fell in love. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1997 "for the first discoveryof an ion-transporting enzyme, Na

Vol. 26 No. 2 March-April 2004 Role Models in Chemistry: Jens Christian Skou by Balazs Hargittai and István Hargittai Jens Christian Skou Photo by I. Hargittai, Aarhus, 2003. Jens Christian Skou (b. 1918 in Lemvig, Denmark) is professor emeritus at the Department of Biophysics of the University of Aarhus, Denmark. He received half of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1997 "for the first discovery of an ion-transporting enzyme, Na ,K -ATPase." His story tells how scientific curiosity, persistent work, and international interactions bring a medical doctor working in a rather isolated place to a major discovery in biochemistry. Skou—who was training as a surgeon—wanted to understand the action mechanism of local anesthetics. His studies eventually led to the problems of transport of ions across cell membranes. This is an area of research, which is at the interface of chemistry and biology and has implications for the medical sciences. After graduation, Skou started his internship at a hospital in the northern part of Denmark. In the surgical ward the head of the department had escaped from the Gestapo to Sweden. The next in line in the department was anxious to teach him how to operate, which was unusual for someone who had just started his internship. Eventually Skou realized that the reason for this was that his superior surgeon was involved in receiving weapons from England delivered by plane at night. When they were on night duty together and the surgeon had to leave to receive weapons he wanted to be sure that Skou could take over. Skou also received his Doctor of Medical Sciences degree from the University of Copenhagen in 1954.

Letter from Chancellor Carnesale October 15, 1997 Professor Emeritus Paul D. Boyer Wins Nobel Prize in Chemistry Members of the Campus Community: I am extremely pleased to announce that Professor Emeritus Paul D. Boyer won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry today along with two other researchers for their work on how the body's cells use energy. Professor Boyer, founding director of UCLA's Molecular Biology Institute, joined the UCLA faculty in 1963. In 1968, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and in 1970 to membership in the National Academy of Sciences, the nation's most prestigious scientific organization. I was delighted to hear about Professor Boyer's Nobel prize. He is a humble, gracious and dedicated researcher and faculty member who has spent decades working on giving the world a greater understanding of energy storage in cells. Everyone at UCLA is extremely proud of Professor Boyer and this honor he so richly deserves. A distinguished biochemist whose work has focused on sorting out the intricate chemical steps our cells orchestrate to obtain energy from the food we eat, Professor Boyer has devoted his major research activities to the study of enzymes, particularly to the study of oxidative phosphorylation. This is the process by which the energy that we get from the combustion of foodstuffs is converted largely to a single compound, adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. ATP serves as the energy source for almost all other energy-requiring processes in a living organism. The mechanisms by which ATP is made are highly complex and have challenged scientists for decades. Professor Boyer's insights have helped illuminate the world's understanding of these processes.
