Description |
Photograph of Har Gobind Khorana - Har Gobind Khorana (1922- ) shared the 1968 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Marshall Nirenberg and Robert Holley. Khorana is from Raipur, a small town in what is now Pakistan. He attended Punjab University in Lahore, India, earning a B.S. degree in 1943 and a master's two years later. Khorana then left for England, where he obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Liverpool in 1948. After a postdoctoral fellowship in Zurich, Khorana worked in India, in Cambridge, England, and at the British Columbia Research Council before settling in at the Institute for Enzyme Research at the University of Wisconsin in 1960. It was there that he did the genetic research that won him the Nobel Prize. In 1970 Khorana moved on to become professor of biology and chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where his group was the first to synthesize a biologically active gene and where he determined the exact order of the nucleotides in the codon triplets.
