Walter Gilbert
Walter Gilbert was the Carl M. Loeb University Professor at Harvard University and is now Chairman of the Harvard Society of Fellows. In 1980, he won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work on DNA sequencing.
- Before Jacob and Monod, people thought the amount of protein in a cell was constant and proteins turned themselves off.
- Jacob and Monod discovered that genes control the amount of protein in a cell.
- Where did the idea of negative control come from?
- How Jacob and Monod showed the existence of the inhibitor (what Gilbert calls the repressor).
- Jacob and Monod never identified the inhibitor, but Gilbert found it.
- What we know about gene regulation today.
- To explain their data, Jacob and Monod had to hypothesize the existence of mRNA.
