In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Venki Ramakrishnan about his discovering and mapping the ribosome structure. They discuss his background in coming from India to study physics and then biology, layout of ribosome, DNA, RNA, mRNA, and proteins, what we have learned about the ribosome over the past 50+ years, x-ray crystallography, and his trip to the LMB. They also discuss his experience of seeing atomic subunits of ribosomes for the first time, winning the Nobel Prize, and the future of ribosome research.
Venki Ramakrishnan is a biologist and group leader of the Medical Research Center (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology and is a fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. He was President of the Royal Society from 2015 to 2020. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2009 for his work on the sequence of the ribosome structure. He is also a member of the Order of Merit since 2012. He is the author of, Gene Machine: The Race to Decipher the Secrets of the Ribosome.
