Abstract:
Writing to congratulate Kornberg on receiving a Nobel Prize, Francis Crick also provided an update on the current work of his colleagues Max Perutz and John Kendrew. In 1962, Perutz and Kendrew would share the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work on the structures of proteins such as hemoglobin and myoglobin; Crick would share the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology with James Watson and Maurice Wilkins, for the discovery of the structure of DNA.
