When working as a guest at the famous Salk Institute for Biomedical Research in La Jolla (California), Eschenmoser (now a professor emeritus) was able to study a series of sugar derivatives as possible candidates for pre-RNA models. It turned out that five atoms in the nucleic acid chain suffice, if they are present in an optimal extended form. This was shown using a polymer containing (L)-a-threofuranosyl-(3 2 )-oligonucleotides (TNA) (Fig. 6.18) (Schoning et al., 2000). 

L. Weber, then at the Salk Institute in San Diego, was able to form high-energy thioesters from glycerinealdehyde and A-acetylcysteine. The reaction occurred under anaerobic conditions, at pH 7, in an aqueous solution of sodium phosphate. Of the aldehyde, 0.3% was converted to the lactoyl thioester per day of reaction (Weber, 1984).

Vaccines There are two IND (investigative new drug) human unlicensed VEE vaccines available. The first, named TC-83, developed in the 1960s is a live, attenuated cell-culture-propagated vaccine produced by the Salk Institute, and is not effective against all the serotypes in the VEE complex. It is used in a single subcutaneous dose of 0.5 mL.

At Stanford, Berg has been Willson Professor of Biochemistry, chairman of the Department of Biochemistry, Fellow of the Salk Institute, Robert W. and Vivian K. Cahill Professor of Cancer Research, Emeritus, and director and director emeritus of the Beckman Center for Molecular and Genetic Medicine. The focus of much Berg s research in the last three decades has been the mechanisms by which cells repair damage to their DNA. 

The original polio vaccine was developed by Jonas Salk (for whom the Salk Institute in LaJolla is named). It is a "killed" virus. However, over the years it was found that this did not always impart a complete immunity. The Sabin vaccine contains an attenuated virus. It is interesting to note that the Sabin vaccine can cause an active infection in a rare number of cases. 

In later years, Dr. Crick became u research professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in California and at age 84, was still researching. He has written several books on the implications of the new findings in biochemistry.

Although the reviewers listed above have provided many constructive comments and suggestions, they were not asked to endorse the conclusions or recommendations, nor did they see the final draft of the report before its release. The review of this report was overseen by Leslie Orgel, Salk Institute for Biological Studies. Appointed by the National Research Council, he was responsible for making certain that an independent examination of this report was carried out in accordance with institutional procedures and that all review comments were carefully considered. Responsibility for the final content of this report rests entirely with the authoring committee and the institution.
