Extractions: My grandfather milked several cows twice a day and supplied the neighbours with dairy products. He liked to go visiting around the county on Saturdays and he also enjoyed the neighbours when they came by once a week with their empty milk jars. He walked them out to their cars and hung over the driver's side window until they drove off. The road was two tire tracks on well mown grass between barbed wire fences, cows off to the right, alfalfa or sometimes corn to the left. I remember mostly the summers. My mother and aunts presided out on the big screened back porch shelling peas, stringing beans, peeling apples, pears, and peaches. The peaches were peeled with a special machine that had a hand crank and left a spiraling groove on what was left of the peach. The peels went to the pigs. Everything else went into steaming Mason jars which would go down into the earthen floored cellar. Down there in the dark, and it was always a little moist, were spiders in abundance and magnificent biodiversity. My brothers, and my cousins, and I ventured into the cellar once in a while to inspect the sweet potatoes and the hibernating jars. No one wanted to stay there alone ever, and mostly we played in the woods, the swamp, the orchards, the barn, the granary, which had wasps, and the woodshed, which also had wasps and, like the barn, allegedly, snakes.

Dedication Book Excerpt By Dr. Kary Mullis Penthouse Sept. 1998 Dr. Mullis was awarded the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This article is excerpted from his forthcoming book, Dancing Naked in the Mind Field , to be published by Pantheon. When I first heard in 1984 that Luc Montagnier of France's Pasteur Institute and Robert Gallo of America's National Institutes of Health had independently discovered that the retrovirus H.I.V. human immunodeficiency virus caused AIDS, I accepted it as just another scientific fact. It was a little out of my field of biochemistry, and these men were specialists in retroviruses. Four years later I was working as a consultant at Specialty Labs in Santa Monica. Specialty was trying to develop a means of using P.C.R. [polymerase chain reaction, a D.N.A.-amplification method conceived by Mullis] to detect retroviruses in the thousands of blood donations received per day by the Red Cross. I was writing a report on our progress for the project sponsor, and I began by stating, "H.I.V. is the probable cause of AIDS."

Extractions: (RU 9577) Background The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique, invented in 1985 by Kary B. Mullis, allowed scientists to make millions of copies of a scarce sample of DNA. The technique has revolutionized many aspects of current research, including the diagnosis of genetic defects and the detection of the AIDS virus in human cells. The technique is also used by criminologists to link specific persons to samples of blood or hair via DNA comparison. PCR also affected evolutionary studies because large quantities of DNA can be manufactured from fossils containing but trace amounts. Kary Mullis invented the PCR technique in 1985 while working as a chemist at the Cetus Corporation, a biotechnology firm in Emeryville, California. The procedure requires placing a small amount of the DNA containing the desired gene into a test tube. A large batch of loose nucleotides, which link into exact copies of the original gene, is also added to the tube. A pair of synthesized short DNA segments, that match segments on each side of the desired gene, is added. These "primers" find the right portion of the DNA, and serve as starting points for DNA copying. When the enzyme Thermus aquaticus (Taq) is added, the loose nucleotides lock into a DNA sequence dictated by the sequence of that target gene located between the two primers. The test tube is heated, and the DNA's double helix separates into two strands. The DNA sequence of each strand of the helix is thus exposed and as the temperature is lowered the primers automatically bind to their complementary portions of the DNA sample. At the same time, the enzyme links the loose nucleotides to the primer and to each of the separated DNA strands in the appropriate sequence. The complete reaction, which takes approximately five minutes, results in two double helices containing the desired portion of the original. The heating and cooling is repeated, doubling the number of DNA copies. After thirty to forty cycles are completed a single copy of a piece of DNA can be multiplied to hundreds of millions.

Extractions: Taq polymerase has higher accuracy at lower concentrations. Magnesium chloride (MgCl ) is also essential for dNTP incorporation. The optimum concentration range for MgCl is 1.0-1.5 mM; low Mg leads to low PCR yields and an excess results in nonspecific products. Finally, Taq DNA polymerase is needed to polymerize the new DNA. The annealing temperature will vary depending on how well the primers match the desired sequence - the more perfect the match the higher the temperature. A common equation used for the determination of annealing temperature is T m = 2(A + T) + 4(G + C), where A, T, G, and C represent the numbers of each nucleotide in the primer sequence.
Nobel Prize In Chemistry 1993 - Press Release Dr kary B. mullis, La Jolla, California, USA, for his invention of the polymerase The chemical methods that kary B. mullis and Michael Smith have each http://www.nyx.net/~mjensen/nobel93.html
Extractions: Professor Michael Smith , University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, for his fundamental contributions to the establishment of oligonucleotide-based, site-directed mutagenesis and its development for protein studies. The chemical methods that Kary B. Mullis and Michael Smith have each developed for studying the DNA molecules of genetic material have further hastened the rapid development of genetic engineering. The two methods have greatly stimulated basic biochemical research and opened the way for new applications in medicine and biotechnology. The applications of Mullis' PCR method are already many. It is for example possible using simple equipment to multiply a given DNA segment from a complicated genetic material millions of times in a few hours, which is of very great significance for biochemical and genetic research. The method offers new possibilities particularly in medical diagnostics, and is used, for example, for discovering HIV virus or faulty genes in hereditary diseases. Researchers can also produce DNA from animals that became extinct millions of years ago by using the PCR method on fossil material.

Extractions: Tech grad Kary Mullis selected Japan Prize Laureate D r. Kary B. Mullis, who developed one of the hottest techniques in biotechnology - the polymerase chain reaction - as been awarded the 1993 Japan Prize for Molecular and Cellular Technology in Medicine. A 1964 chemistry graduate of Georgia Tech, Mullis is a private consultant of nucleic acid chemistry. He will receive a cash award of $385,000 (50 million yen). The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has revolutionized molecular biology, medicine and many other related scientific fields. PCR allows scientists to produce a specific DNA sequence without resorting to cloning. It is a way of amplifying specific DNA sequences from small amounts of a complex template. The Japan Prize was created by The Science and Technology Foundation of Japan to commend scientists and technologists throughout the world for major scientific and technological achievements that advance global peace and prosperity. After graduating from Tech, Mullis received a doctorate in biochemistry from the University of California, Berkely. Mullis worked for Cetus Corp., Emeryville, Calif. where he developed PCR. From 1986 to 1988, he was director of molecular biology at Xytronyx Inc. in San Diego, and began working as a consultant in 1987. The multiplying uses of PCR have kept his services as a consultant in demand. PCR can be used to determine which viruses are present in organs for transplant, and could help in the development of DNA for use as a drug, Mullis said in an article in the Winter 1992

Mullis n. 1944 Premio Nobel per la chimica 1993 con Michael Smith Premio Nobel 1992 Premio Nobel 1994 Kary Banks Mullis, una scheda biografica Kary Banks Mullis nasce il 28 dicembre 1944 a Lenoir, nel North Carolina, da Cecil Banks Mullis e Bernice Barker Fredericks. Nel 1949 si trasferisce insieme ai genitori a Columbia, nel South Carolina. Nel 1962 si diploma alla Dreher High School di Columbia, dove è ben noto per il suo irriverente senso dellumorismo, quanto per il fatto di essere straordinariamente portato per le materie scientifiche: nellultimo anno ricopre lincarico di vicepresidente del corpo studentesco. Nel 1966 consegue il master in Chimica al Georgia Institute of Technology e si trasferisce alla University of California a Berkeley, dove nel 1972 ottiene il Ph.D. in Biochimica, materia che insegna fino allanno successivo. Nel 1973 ottiene una borsa di studio post-dottorato in cardiologia pediatrica alla University of Kansas Medical School, occupandosi in particolare di angiotensina e della fisiologia vascolare del polmone. Nel 1977 si trasferisce per due anni alla University of California a San Francisco, per occuparsi di chimica farmaceutica. Due anni più tardi, nel 1979, è assunto dalla Cetus Corporation di Emeryville, California, come chimico esperto di DNA. Durante i sette anni che vi trascorre, si dedica alla ricerca sulla sintesi degli oligonucleotidi, e inventa la reazione a catena della polimerasi (PCR), per la quale riceve nel 1993 il premio Nobel per la Chimica.

Extractions: The following important comments were made by Kary B. Mullis in his autobiography, "Dancing Naked in the Mind Field." Who is Kary Mullis? Mullis is the scientist and chemist that brought the world the gift of "all the DNA you wanted" by allowing copies to be made through "his invention of the polymerase chain reaction method." For that he was awarded 1/2 of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993 Mullis's comments have important ramifications for those of us involved in the scientific enterprise of investigating global warming by CO . Not only that we should be good enough to resist spreading unfounded fears (which is what I infer by merely browsing over what has been published over the last 10 years or so) of a globally warm Earth; but we better be sure that what we say and publish our scientific results are accurate and at least can be subjected to the minimal scientific standard of being reproducible.
