The famous 1953 paper of Watson and Crick in Nature: We wish to suggest a structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.) |
Did Nature forget about its most famous scientific publication of all times? I could not find it on the Nature website today: the 70th Anniversary of the discovery of the structure of DNA!
The discovery of Watson and Crick lay the foundation not only of
molecular genetics and molecular biology, but of biology and evolution in
general.

The theory of evolution and the discovery of DNA are two of the most important mile-stones of the science of the living world. This blog is about DNA and evolution. I have now 59 blogposts labeled 'DNA'. I created an overview of the most important blogposts about DNA on this blog Page:
A selection of important posts about DNA (2012 - 2023).
Have a Nice DNA Day!
Postscript 27 Apr 2023
This morning I discovered a paper dated 25 April in Nature by Matthew Cobb and Nathaniel Comfort: What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure, but when I checked Nature website on 25 April and I found nothing about DNA!
Further, I discovered a Nature editorial dated 25 April 2023:
How Rosalind Franklin was let down by DNA’s dysfunctional team
