S-strain bacteria could transform R-strain bacteria to kill a mice. (1928)
|
|
Oswald T. Avery
|
Isolated "transforming principle" from S-strain using alcohol precipitation. Determined that just the transforming principle along with R-Bacteria was sufficient for transformation. (1931)
|
|
Colin Macleod and Maclyn McCarty
|
Determined transforming principle was DNA. Achieved by fractionating the transforming principle and determined which macromolecule was responsible for transformation. (1944)
|
|
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase
|
DNA is the molecule responsible for viral replication. Worked with bacteriophages and radio-labeled proteins. Location of labeled components was the key point here! Sulfur only found in some amino acid r groups and Phosphorus only found in DNA and not Proteins. (1952)
|
|
Watson and Crick
|
Determined 3-D structure of DNA. (1953)
|
|
Meselson and Stahl
|
Confirmed semiconservative replication using heavier density Nitrogen and lighter density nitrogen in bacterial DNA replication.
