Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Oversize hardcover: name and stamp on front free endpaper, otherwise text clean and solid; light wear to dust jacket; NOTE: additional postage necessary for international shipping; 1.32 x 10.41 x 7.78 Inches; 619 pages; The first two chapters of this invaluable book trace the developments of the chemistry and macromolecular structures, respectively, of proteins and nuclei acids. Similarly, the introductions to the succeeding chapters review, step by step, the historical landmarks in the topics covered. These include discoveries of biological phosphate esters, nucleotides and nucleotide coenzymes (important in intermediary metabolism), the nature of the genetic material and biological synthesis of proteins, formulation of the problem of the genetic code, and perspectives on bioenergetics. The selected papers illustrate the developments of the chemical synthesis of nucleotides and nucleotide coenzymes of ribo- and deoxy-ribo-polynucleotides (RNA, DNA), of the total synthesis of genes in the laboratory, and principles for gene amplification (PCR). Another major section covers studies of enzymes that degrade nucleic acids, the structure of transfer RNA and its role in protein synthesis, and the author's work on the elucidation of the genetic code. Finally, there are descriptions of the studies on biological membranes and the membrane protein bacteriorhodopsin, a biological proton pump. These studies elucidated the mechanism of proton translocation, which is central to bioenergetics.

Book First Edition Signed
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Pp. 79-105. Original printed wrappers. Stapled as issued. Near Fine. First Edition. SIGNED BY GOBIND KHORANA: "Best wishes/ Gobind Khorana". Harvey Lecture delivered November 17, 1966. Khorana shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1968 with Robert W. Holley and Marshall W. Nirenberg "for their interpretation of the genetic code and its function in protein synthesis." Khorana published three papers with the same title "Polynucleotide Synthesis and the Genetic Code". The first was in 1965: H. G. Khorana, "Polynucleotide Synthesis and the Genetic Code", Federation Proceedings, Vol. 24, 1965, pp. 1473-1487. The second was the multi-authored paper from the Cold Spring Harbor "Genetic Code" Symposium in June 1966, Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, Vol. 31, 1966, pp. 39-49. The last was the paper offered here, which was Khorana's Harvey Lecture delivered on November 17, 1966. "Khorana made one of the most consequential advances in molecular biology by using a hybrid approach that employed organic chemistry to synthesize short sequence of a few nucleotides followed by the use of a copying enzyme to generate long DNA molecules with many repeating copies of the short sequence. Khorana's molecules with a repeating sequence were the keys to cracking the genetic code. A few years earlier, the complex process of translation was reconstituted in the test tube and was dependent on messenger RNA added from the outside. By using synthetic messenger RNAs to instruct the synthesis of proteins by the ribosome, Khorana's group was able to work out rules for how specific sequences of three nucleotides in RNA are translated into the 20 possible amino acids" (Chris Kaiser, "Gobind Khorana and the Rise of Molecular Biology", which can be read online for free).
