(1920-1958)
Woman in science . Her work
in structures enabled Watson & Crick
“Double Helix” Discovery in 50’s

4. In 1951, both Sir
William Lawrence
Bragg and Linus
Pauling wanted to
find the structure of
the master molecule
of life, the gene. But
both were focused
on proteins (NOT
DNA ! ) Sir William L. Bragg
(1890-1971)
Nobel 1915, Physics
(Director, Cavendish Lab,
Cambridge University)
Linus Pauling
(1901-1994

Leader)

5. Microbiologist Avery led the
team that showed that DNA is
the unit of inheritance. His
work inspired Watson and
Crick to seek DNA's structure.

15. “The Dark Horse Team “ of Watson & Crick

16. Answer:
“structure” often points to
“function”. The extraordinary
feature of the DNA molecule is
its ability to replicate itself.
Question:
“Why was the determination
of the double helix structure
such an important discovery?”
