4. Stanley B. Prusiner - Autobiography
stanley B. prusiner – Autobiography. My history is not atypical sucha project has demanded. From Les Prix nobel 1997.
http://www.nobel.se/medicine/laureates/1997/prusiner-autobio.html
My history is not atypical of many Americans: born in the midwest, educated in the East, and now living in the West. My early years were shared between Des Moines, Iowa and Cincinnati, Ohio. Shortly after I was born on May 28, 1942 in Des Moines, my father, Lawrence, was drafted into the United States Navy. I was named for my father's younger brother who died of Hodgkin's disease at the age of 24. We moved to Boston briefly where my father enrolled in Naval officer training school before being sent to the south Pacific. He served as a communications officer for the remainder of World War II on an island called Eniwetok where the first hydrogen bomb was detonated a decade later.
During my father's absence, my mother, Miriam, and I lived in Cincinnati where her mother, Mollie Spigel, also lived. Prior to moving to Cincinnati, Mollie had lived in Norfolk, Virginia, where she raised three children after her husband Benjamin was killed at age 50 in a traffic accident. Besides many special memories of my maternal grandmother, I have many fond reminiscences of my paternal grandfather, Ben, who emigrated to the United States in 1896 as a young boy from Moscow. He grew up in Sioux City, Iowa, as did my father with many other Russian Jews. Shortly after the end of World War II, we returned to Des Moines where I attended primary school and my brother, Paul, was born. In 1952, we moved back to Cincinnati with the hope that my father would be able to find a much better job as an architect. In Cincinnati, he practiced architecture for the next 25 years, which enabled him to provide a very comfortable home for his family.

NOBEL PRIZE FOR PRUSINER Stanley B. Prusiner, MD, UCSF professor of neurology and biochemistry and biophysics, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine yesterday. Prusiner received the prize “for his pioneering discovery of an entirely new genre of disease-causing agents and the elucidation of the underlying principles of their mode of action," according to the Nobel committee in Stockholm, Sweden. Prusiner discovered an entirely new disease agent, called a prion, which is implicated in rare, slowly progressing brain diseases. Prion Protein Model (Andrew Wallace) High Resolution Image available (79K) This illustration compares a normal prion protein to a disease-causing form. The two structures exhibit two different, classic protein motifs, called "alpha helices," and "beta sheets." Alpha helices, seen here in the normal prion (left), consist of linked amino-acid building blocks that spiral around like a coiled spring. Beta sheets form when amino acid chains line up in a flat plane within the protein, as in the disease-causing protein shown here. Research discoveries by Stanley Prusiner, MD, Fred Cohen, MD, PhD, and their UCSF colleagues suggest that the propagation of infectious prions arises from a rearrangement of a normal prion protein into a disease-causing form, a process that can be spurred by the initial presence of the infectious protein.

Long-Time NIH Grantee Stanley B. Prusiner Wins Nobel Prize Stanley B. Prusiner, M.D., a long-time grantee of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is the recipient of the 1997 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for his discovery of an unusual class of infectious particles called prions. Prions are believed to be responsible for a group of diseases that include "mad cow" disease. Prusiner, who is professor of neurology, virology, and biochemistry at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), has received more than 56 million dollars in research grant support from NIH during the last three decades. "Dr. Prusiner is a pioneer in science and medicine. He introduced a truly new idea to the biology of disease... the idea that a protein can be an infectious agent," says Zach W. Hall, Ph.D., Director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), which has supported Dr. Prusiner since 1975. "His work has turned a once obscure corner of medicine into an important source of new ideas about fundamental biological mechanisms." Dr. Prusiner has received additional funding from the National Institute on Aging, the National Center for Research Resources, and the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, all of which are components of NIH. Dr. Prusiner led the work that uncovered the nature of prions (a term he coined from "

Prusiner, Stanley B.,
in full STANLEY BEN PRUSINER (b. May 28, 1942, Des Moines, Iowa, U.S.), American neurologist whose discovery of the disease-causing protein called prion in 1982 won him the 1997 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. When first published, the prion theory met with much criticism but became widely accepted by the mid-1990s. In 1996, when a new variant of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease emerged in the U.K., Prusiner's research was the focus of national attention. Fears abounded that the new variant of the disease might be linked to "mad cow" disease, a brain disorder that first appeared in British cattle a decade earlier. Some evidence suggested that the mad cow prion may have jumped species, infecting humans who consumed beef contaminated with the infectious agent. Because mad cow disease was believed to have been caused when the agent that causes scrapie in sheep was transmitted to cattle in feed, there was precedent for species-jumping events to occur. Prusiner's research also could have significant implications for such disorders as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, which seemed to share certain characteristics with the diseases caused by prions.

que puede ocasionar severas enfermedades en el cerebro como el Alzheimer
Por haber descubierto los priones, un nuevo principio biológico de infección que puede ocasionar severas enfermedades en el cerebro, el estadounidense de 55 años, Stanley B. Prusiner, del Departamento de Neurología de la Universidad de California, de Estados Unidos, fue laureado el pasado día 6 de octubre con el Premio Nobel 1997 en Fisiología o Medicina. El anuncio oficial fue hecho por el Comité Nobel del Instituto Karolinska, organismo designado por Alfred Nobel en su testamento para entregar este premio. Los descubrimientos de Prusiner, hacen de su hallazgo uno de los más importantes en el campo de la Medicina y la Fisiología. Los priones son una nueva substancia infecciosa que puede ocasionar severas enfermedades en el cerebro del tipo locura, tanto en los seres humanos como en los animales. Los priones en principio inofensivos son proteínas producidas por el cuerpo humano, las cuales pueden cambiar de forma y producir enfermedades. El descubrimiento tiene un significado relevante para los estudios de las enfermedades mentales y la elaboración de medicamentos.

American scientist wins Nobel Prize for medicine
His work provides insight into brain diseases
October 6, 1997
Web posted at: 8:51 a.m. EDT (1251 GMT) STOCKHOLM, Sweden (CNN) An American biologist won the 1997 Nobel prize for medicine Monday for his discovery of a new class of germ believed responsible for brain-wasting conditions such as "mad cow" disease. Stanley B. Prusiner, a professor at the University of California at San Francisco, discovered prions, "an entirely new genre of disease-causing agents," the Nobel citation from Sweden's Karolinska Institute said. "Prusiner has added prions to the list of well-known infectious agents, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites." Prusiner began his search for prions in 1972, after one of his patients died from dementia resulting from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, the human equivalent of "mad cow" disease. After 10 years, he and his team produced a preparation derived from diseased hamsters' brains that contained a single agent he called a prion. His work was greeted with skepticism at first: Unlike known infectious agents, prions contain no genetic material, and are simply proteins. Furthermore, the gene encoding for prions is found in all mammals, including humans.
