- Description
- Ribosomes, translation offices and protein factories in cells, have been the research focus of Ada Yonath (Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel), the first “Nobel guest” at TU Dresden in 2019. Since the middle of the 20th century, it has been known that the molecular complex reads out genetic information from RNA and builds proteins based on this protein blueprint. Yet, the atomic masterpiece of how it does that had been a puzzle for scientists for a long time, its decryption was a mile stone in biochemical research for which the Isreali structural biologist was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2009, together with Thomas Steitz and Venkatraman Ramakrishnan.
