Erwin Chargaff

Front

the percentage of the 4 types of nucleotides is different in different organisms; percent of adenine nucleotides is the same as the percent of thymine nucleotides; percent of cytosine nucleotides is the same as percent of guanine nucleotides

Back

Maurice Wilkins

Front

operated a lab where X-ray crystallography was conducted to analyze molecules

Back

Hershey and Chase

Front

used bacteriophages to isolate that the DNA from the phage transforms the bacterial host

Back

Rosalind Franklin

Front

took the first X-ray picture of DNA

Back

Frederick Griffith

Front

transformation of genetic material is possible through use of two pneumonia strains

Back

Linus Pauling

Front

DNA strand model; triple helix idea was later disproven

Back

Oswald Avery

Front

repeated Griffith's experiments to find that the transforming agent was DNA

Back

Meselson and Stahl

Front

used isotopes of nitrogen to demonstrate that DNA replication could not be conservative or dispersive; evidence that DNA replication is semi-conservative

Back

Watson and Crick

Front

proposed the double-helix model of DNA based on contributions of earlier scientist; proposed semi-conservative model of replication, but lacked supportive evidence
