Darwin College: Academic Life - Darwin Lectures Professor sir aaron klug MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge.Biography Abstract Printable Version. The structure of the DNA double helix, http://www.dar.cam.ac.uk/lectures/2003/AaronKlugAbstract.shtml
Extractions: MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge The structure of the DNA double helix, with its complementary base pairing, is one of the greatest discoveries in biology in the 20th Century. It was also most dramatic, since, quite unexpectedly, the structure itself pointed to the way in which a DNA molecule might replicate itself, and hence revealed the "secret of life". The structure was solved in the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge by Francis Crick and James Watson, using X-ray diffraction data from fibres of DNA obtained by Rosalind Franklin at King's College, London. The lecture aims to tell the story of the origin of the research on DNA, the early experiments by Maurice Wilkins at King's College, the sorting out of the two forms of DNA by Franklin, the wrong paths taken, the interplay of old rivalries, and the final model-building by Watson and Crick to give the three dimensional structure. The initial, often hesitant, reception of the proposed structure, and its final confirmation by biochemistry and X-ray crystallography, will be described.

Extractions: MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge Aaron Klug was educated at the Universities of Witwatersrand, Cape Town and Cambridge. He began as a medical student, transferred to science, and his PhD at the Cavendish Laboratory was in Physics. He joined the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge in 1962, was the Director of the Laboratory from 1986 to 1996, and now continues as a member of staff, leading a research group on gene expression. He was a colleague of Rosalind Franklin at Birkbeck College in the 1950s soon after the time when her X-ray diffraction of DNA provided key information which allowed Watson and Crick to propose the double helical structure. His own work has been on the interactions of proteins and nucleic acids and on the elucidation of the structures of large biological molecules and assemblies, including simple viruses and chromatin, by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy and on the development of new methods for their study. The principle of his method of 3-D image reconstruction in electron microscopy from a series of 2-D tilted images later formed the basis of X-ray CT scanner. In 1982 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. His current research is on the structure of DNA and RNA binding proteins which regulate gene expression and in particular on the interaction with DNA and RNA of the zinc finger family of transcription factors which he discovered.

Now they are racing to discover the secret of life. It will be the find of the century. It's May 1, 1952, and what these scientists gathered at the Royal Society don't know is, at this very moment, close by in a London lab, an X-ray camera is clicking off a 100-hour exposure of something called "DNA." When developed, this photograph will reveal the structure of DNA and the key to understanding how the blueprint for all life on earth is passed down from generation to generation. Two of the most determined of the DNA detectives are Francis Crick and an American, James Watson. Also at the Royal Society is a 31 year-old British scientist named Rosalind Franklin. She is responsible for the crucial X-ray photo. As Watson, Crick and their colleague Maurice Wilkins, strive to solve the puzzle of DNA, Franklin's work will pave the way. Without her knowledge, they will gain access to her findings and her remarkable X-ray image of DNA. It will lead to one of the greatest discoveries in science, and, some believe, to one of its greatest injustices. Up next on NOVA, Rosalind Franklin and the

Extractions: Secret of Photo 51 homepage On April 25, 1953, the science journal Nature Fifty years later, "Secret of Photo 51" unravels the mystery behind the discovery of the double helix and investigates the seminal role that Rosalind Franklin and her remarkable X-ray photograph played in one of the greatest discoveries in the history of science. The program draws on extensive interviews with surviving major participants in the DNA drama, including Maurice Wilkins, deputy director of the lab where Franklin worked, who casually showed her crucial Photo 51 to Watson; Raymond Gosling, Franklin's PhD student with whom she made Photo 51; and Nobel Prize recipient Sir Aaron Klug, Franklin's last and closest collaborator, who inherited her notebooks. Klug analyzes Franklin's notebooks for NOVA to demonstrate just how close Franklin came to making the double helix discovery. Also appearing is award-winning biographer Brenda Maddox, author of Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA (HarperCollins, 2002), on which the film is partially based.

(Hobbes: Leviathan Cambridge and the MRC were also asked for copies of their institutional codes of practice with particular regard to the publication of false or misleading statements in the scientific literature. Both bodies reported that they have no such code or formal procedure for investigating complaints, simply leaving such matters to their respective senior officers. Later, a copy of an investigative procedure from the MRC was received via the British cabinet office, so it may subsequently have begun to develop a process for investigating complaints. No codification of proper practice, or definition of malpractice, has been received from either body. In other words, neither is willing to state explicitly that they prohibit falsification of the scientific literature.
