Japan's Osamu Shimomura, one of three recipients 2 of Nobel Chemistry prize, 08 Oct 2008
"The Royal Swedish Academy of Science has decided 3 to award the Nobel prize in Chemistry for the year 2008 jointly 4 to Professor Martin Chalfie, Colombia University in New York, Professor Osamu Shimomura, Woods Hold Institute of Oceanography, Woods Hole, and Professor Roger Tsien, University of California, San Diego," he said. "And the Academy citation 5 runs: 'For the discovery and development of the green florescent protein, GFP.'"
The scientists all work for American institutions, but Shimomura is Japanese. He was also the first scientist to observed the luminous 6 species of jellyfish off the North American coast in 1962, whose protein has become critical for tracking certain illnesses. The two others have followed up on his initial research.
Scientists use the jellyfish's glowing green protein as a sort of genetic 7 marker, allowing them to observe how organs function and diseases grow. They can use it to track growing cancer tumors, for example, or the development of Alzheimer's disease.
On Tuesday, two Japanese and a Japanese American won the Nobel prize for physics. Pending 8 Nobel announcements include literature, peace and economics.
