A fundamental breakthrough in biological science occurred in 1977, and most biologists did not notice: a paper by Professor of Microbiology Carl Woese that compared sequence snippets derived from small subunit rRNAs of different organisms.
A fundamental breakthrough in biological science occurred in 1977, and most biologists did not notice: a paper by Professor of Microbiology Carl Woese that compared sequence snippets derived from small subunit rRNAs of different organisms.
A robust retrospective of the 1977 paper in PNAS explores the accomplishments of Woese, including the research that led up to it, and its significant consequences in the biological sciences.
