Abstract:
In this letter Linus Pauling, the world's preeminent physical chemist at the time, suggested a meeting with Heidelberger to discuss Pauling's ideas about the chemical structure of antibodies and the location of the sites at which they bind to antigens Pauling had developed. His hypothesis was published as "A Theory of the Structure and Process of Formation of Antibodies" in the Journal of the American Chemical Society 62 (1940), pp. 2643-2657.
