Page 93 Did You Know: One Man's Castle Is Another Man's Lab You can hear Miescher describe the process he used to isolate nuclein in an animation found by accessing the Nelson science Web site. DNA from the Beginning is a Web site that describes the major ideas surrounding DNA. Each idea is supported by animations, problems, biographies, etc. This portion of the site deals with the discovery of nuclein by Friedrich Miescher. The link for the animation is at the bottom of the Web page. The site is maintained by Dolan DNA Learning Center . Page 96 Web Activity: Canadian Achievers: Avery and MacLeod Canadian-born scientists Oswald Avery and Colin MacLeod spent their early years as scientists in Nova Scotia , where they were born. They met in New York , where, together with American scientist Maclyn McCarty, they painstakingly isolated components of pneumococci ( Streptococcus pneumoniae ) for over a decade before identifying DNA as the transforming principle. You can find more information on this classic experiment in an animation by accessing the Nelson science Web site. This page is a biography on the work of this scientist and physician, and has links to descriptions of his many important contributions. This page, from About.com, summarizes the work and life of Colin MacLeod. DNA from the Beginning DNA from the Beginning is a Web site that describes the major ideas surrounding DNA.

Page 99 Elementary, My Dear Crick Erwin Chargaff visited Watson and Crick in Cambridge in 1952. Crick's lack of knowledge with respect to nitrogenous bases did not impress Chargaff. By the following year, Watson and Crick had constructed their model of DNA. Enjoy Watson and Crick's deductive process in an animation found by accessing the Nelson Science Web site.
