2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry

10/07 

The 2020 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded jointly to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna for the development of a method for genome editing.

PDB structures help illustrate this process. Visit PDB-101 to learn more about Cascade and CRISPR at Molecule of the Month.

Browse PDB-101 to explore articles and resources that highlight many of the PDB structures and related experimental techniques associated with Nobel Prizes, including a timeline of awards made in Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, and Physics and corresponding Molecule of the Month articles.

PDB-101 features on the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine that was awarded jointly to Harvey J. Alter, Michael Houghton and Charles M. Rice for the discovery of Hepatitis C virus will be added in the future.
