释义
Sanger, Frederick (1918–2013)

Chemistry
  • who was educated at Cambridge University and spent most of his career there. Using what came to be known as Sanger’s reagent, he was able to work out the sequence of amino acids in insulin by 1953. He was awarded the 1958 Nobel Prize for chemistry for this achievement. In the late 1950s he turned his attention to finding the sequence of nucleotides in DNA and RNA. By the late 1970s Sanger and his colleagues had succeeded in this endeavour, resulting in Sanger being awarded a share in the 1980 Nobel Prize for chemistry. He thus became the only person to win the chemistry prize twice.


Biology
  • who worked at Cambridge University and the Medical Research Council. He was awarded two Nobel Prizes for chemistry. The first was for his discovery of the amino-acid sequence in bovine insulin, which enabled insulin to be synthesized. His second Nobel Prize was for discovering the sequence of 5400 nucleotides in a strand of viral DNA. His technique for sequencing nucleotides has been widely applied (see DNA sequencing). The Sanger Institute, Cambridge, was founded in 1992 and named in his honour. It is one of the world’s leading genomics research establishments.
