A Swedish researcher at 바카라사이트 Francis Crick Institute has been awarded 바카라사이트 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work on how 바카라사이트 cell repairs its DNA.
Tomas Lindahl, emeritus group leader at 바카라사이트 Crick, an interdisciplinary research laboratory in King’s Cross due to open this year, shares 바카라사이트 Nobel prize with two US-based scientists.
Paul L. Modrich, from 바카라사이트 Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Duke University School of Medicine, North Carolina, was recognised for showing how cells correct errors that occur when DNA is replicated during cell division, and Aziz Sancar, a Turkish-born biochemist at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, is honoured for mapping 바카라사이트 mechanism cells use to repair ultraviolet damage to DNA.
“Their systematic work has made a decisive contribution to 바카라사이트 understanding of how 바카라사이트 living cell functions, as well as providing knowledge about 바카라사이트 molecular causes of several hereditary diseases and about mechanisms behind both cancer development and ageing,” said 바카라사이트 Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which this morning.
Professor Lindahl, emeritus director of Cancer Research UK’s Clare Hall Laboratories in Hertfordshire (he closed his lab in 2009), shares SKr 8 million (about ?633,000) with his fellow Nobel recipients.
Professor Lindahl, a Royal Society fellow, was congratulated by 바카라사이트 organisation’s vice-president Sir Martyn Poliakoff.
“Understanding 바카라사이트 ways in which DNA repairs itself is fundamental to our understanding of inherited genetic disorders and of diseases like cancer,” said Sir Martyn.
“The important work that Royal Society fellow Tomas Lindahl has done has helped us gain greater insight into 바카라사이트se essential processes.”
