Principles that govern the folding of protein chains.
@article{Anfinsen1973PrinciplesTG, title={Principles that govern the folding of protein chains.}, author={C. Anfinsen}, journal={Science}, year={1973}, volume={181 4096}, pages={ 223-30 } }
Stanford Moore, William Stein, and Anfinsen were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1972 for "their contribution
to the understanding of the connection between chemical structure and catalytic activity of the active center of the ribonuclease
molecule." In his Nobel Lecture, Anfinsen provided a sketch of the rich history of research that provided the foundation
for his work on protein folding and the "Thermodynamic Hypothesis," and outlined potential avenues of current and
future… CONTINUE READING
