He spent the year 1939-40 as a Visiting Investigator at the Carlsberg Laboratory in Copenhagen . In 1943, he received a Ph.D. from Harvard Medical School in biochemistry and spent the next seven years at Harvard Medical School; first as Instructor and then as Assistant Professor of Biological Chemistry.

Stein , received the 1972 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for research clarifying the relationship between the molecular structure of proteins and their biological functions. Anfinsen received a doctorate in biochemistry from Harvard University in 1943 and then held various research and teaching positions. He joined the staff of the National Institutes of Health (Bethesda, Md.) in 1950, and he headed the laboratory of chemical biology in the National Institute of Arthritis, Metabolism, and Digestive Diseases from 1963 to 1982. He was a professor of biology at Johns Hopkins University from 1982 until his death. In his Nobel Prize-winning research, Anfinsen studied how the enzyme ribonuclease breaks down the ribonucleic acid (RNA) present in food. Anfinsen was able to ascertain how the ribonuclease molecule folds to form the characteristic three-dimensional structure that is compatible with its function. His writings include The Molecular Basis of Evolution

Anfinsen, Christian B.
Il a entrepris l'édition des Advances in Protein Chemistry, et nous a laissé un important ouvrage: The Molecular Basis of Evolution, paru en 1959.
Ainsi, dès 1962, la preuve était faite que la séquence des résidus déterminée par le code génétique détermine à son tour les autres structures des protéines; résultat d'une importance capitale. Dans le processus de renaturation de la ribonucléase, les huit cystéines (S-H) se réoxydent grâce à l'oxygène atmosphérique, et rétablissent ainsi les quatre ponts disulfure; ceux-ci impliquent les mêmes paires de cystéines que la molécule native. Or, bien que le calcul de probabilités montre que les huit cystéines d'une seule chaîne polypeptidique peuvent former jusqu'à 105 ensembles de ponts di sulfure différents, seul l'ensemble qui était présent dans la molécule de ribonucléase native sera formé.
Au cours des années 1970, Anfinsen et son équipe ont travaillé sur une nouvelle nucléase extracellulaire de staphylococcus aureus. Ils ont déterminé la séquence des 149 amino-acides qui la composent, et ont décrit ses propriétés enzymatiques, chimiques et immunologiques, faisant appel à toutes les techniques modernes de la chimie, de la spectroscopie et de la chromatographie. Pour affiner ses travaux, Anfinsen, en collaboration avec Cuatrecasas, a mis au point le principe de la chromatographie d'affinité, qui rend depuis lors d'immenses services pour la purification et l'identification des cibles hormonales des membranes plasmiques dans les cellules eucaryotiques, et pour l'identification des acides aminés dans une chaîne polypeptidique, ainsi que la détermination de leurs sites actifs.

NIH Nobel Prize Winners
1968Dr. Marshall W. Nirenberg, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for discovering the key to deciphering the genetic code. Dr. Nirenberg and two other researchers, working independently, with whom he shared the prize, made major advances in understanding the chemical mechanisms by which genetic language or information is translated into various proteins that determine the nature and characteristics of all living things. Dr. Nirenberg was the first NIH Nobelist and also the first Federal employee to receive a Nobel Prize. 1970Dr. Julius Axelrod, National Institute of Mental Healthshared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with two scientists from England and Swedenfor independent research into the chemistry of nerve transmission. The three were cited for their “discoveries concerning the humoral transmitters in the nerve terminals and the mechanisms for their storage, release and inactivation.” Specifically, Dr. Axelrod found an enzyme that terminates the action of the nerve transmitter, noradrenaline. He also demonstrated that some antidepressant drugs act by preventing the reuptake of noradrenaline and thus prolong its action in the brain. 1972Dr. Christian B. Anfinsen

A Celebration of Chemistry's Claim to Fame At a ceremony in the Chemistry Building last Thursday afternoon, the popular place to study known as The Pit was transformed into the new Alumni and Faculty Nobel Hall of Fame. Larger-than-life portraits were unveiled of six Nobelists who have all been affiliated with the Department of Chemistry over the past several decades.

Anfinsen, winner of the 1972 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, took his M.S. in Chemistry in 1939 before going on for his Ph.D. at Harvard. Dr. Ahmed H. Zewail, the 1999 Nobelist in Chemistry, took his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1974 under the tutelage of Dr. Robin Hochstrasser. President Judith Rodin payed homage to the "six extraordinary scientists" who had the "courage to push ahead with difficult experiments, even against stiff resistance from an often skeptical scientific community." The Nobelist who recently received the Order of New ZealandSir Alan MacDiarmid addressed all of those gathered as "fellow students" saying that "we are all learning; when you stop learning, you start dying." He said that this event is not only a recognition of the six persons, and the chemistry department, but also Penn's administration. "Science is people," he stressed, adding "first class faculty attract first class students." Although this is his 46th year on the Penn faculty, last semester Dr. MacDiarmid graciously taught a freshman seminar, said Dean Preston.
