Crick, Brenner et al. experiment
The Crick, Brenner et al. experiment (1961) was a scientific experiment performed by Francis Crick, Sydney Brenner, Leslie Barnett and R.J. Watts-Tobin. It was a key experiment in the development of what is now known as molecular biology and led to a publication entitled "The General Nature of the Genetic Code for Proteins" and according to the historian of Science Horace Judson is "regarded ...
A breakthrough from 60 years ago: "General nature of the genetic code
In 1961, Francis Crick and Sydney Brenner, together with two Cambridge colleagues, published an article in Nature that used simple genetic experiments to demonstrate that the genetic code was almost certainly based on groups of three nucleotides. Six decades later, this article continues to be an inspiration to scientists due to its elegant argumentation and its use of simple, powerful ...

In 1961, Crick, Barnett, Brenner, and Watts-Tobin (Crick et al., 1961) designed an elegant experimental strategy to determine the nature of the genetic code. Remarkably, they reached the correct conclusion despite the absence of technology to analyze and compare DNA and protein sequences. In this Essay, Charles Yanofsky discusses

The Genetic Code: Francis Crick's Legacy and Beyond
Finally, Brenner, Barnett, Eugene Katz, and Crick placed the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle of life by proving that UGA was a third stop codon . Thus, the genetic code was cracked, and it is the greatest legacy left behind by Francis Crick, along with the discovery of the double helical nature of DNA. As hallmarks of the foundation of ...

General Nature of the Genetic Code for Proteins
Abstract: In this paper Crick, Brenner, and their collaborators described a very elegant series of genetic experiments by which they proved that the genetic code for protein was a triplet code. They used an acridine dye, proflavin, to induce mutations in a specific, well-studied gene of a virus, a so-called bacteriophage, that attacked the ...
60 years ago, Francis Crick changed the logic of biology
Protein synthesis and the sequence hypothesis. Crick had been thinking at a very high level about the relation between DNA, RNA, and protein for several years, partly inspired by documents and letters that were exchanged between members of the 20-strong RNA Tie Club, a loose discussion group that included Brenner, Jim Watson, and a host of physicists and mathematicians, led by George Gamow [].
How the Code was Cracked
Such examples are James Watson, who in the club received the code PRO for the amino acid proline, Francis Crick (TYR for tyrosine) and Sydney Brenner (VAL for valine). Brenner was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine as recently as 2002, for his discoveries concerning genetic regulation of organ development and programmed cell death.

Who discovered messenger RNA?: Current Biology
As Crick explained, there had to be at least two kinds of RNA in the cytoplasm — what he called 'template RNA' located inside the ribosome, and 'metabolic' or 'soluble RNA', which he suspected was synthesised by each type of ribosome, and corresponded to the code on the template RNA. ...

A REVOLUTION AT 50; Watson and Crick, Both Aligned and Apart
Dr. Crick, Dr. Brenner and Dr. François Jacob realized in a conversation in 1960 that some intermediate must carry the coding information in DNA to the ribosomes, the cell's protein-making factories.
The RNA experiment :: CSHL DNA Learning Center
Sydney Brenner, François Jacob and Matt Meselson's experiment showed that RNA was a copy of the information in DNA. As a messenger, RNA transported the information from the nucleus to the protein-making machinery in the cell. 15330. Messenger RNA, Matthew Meselson. Matt Meselson also had a hand in Sydney Brenner's RNA experiment.

Crick and Brenner Experiment: The term genetic code represents the sequence of nucleotides (A, C, G, T) which further determine the sequence of amino acids for protein production.
