Paper from the 1st ever solved protein structure in 1958 by Kendrew... I just realised after so many years that one of the coauthors is RG Parrish!!! I am RG Parra.. Coincidence? I don't think so.. I choose to believe!
A three-dimensional model of the myoglobin molecule obtained by x-ray analysis.

The tone varies from admiration to curiosity, emphasizing the foundational impact of the model in biological research.
Most discussions positively acknowledge the significance of the 1958 discovery, with comments referencing the pioneering nature of the work and recognizing the early contributions to structural biology.
The posts demonstrate high interest, through mentions of historical context, personal connections, and foundational breakthroughs in protein modeling.
There is a moderate level of engagement, with users sharing historical facts, personal coincidences, and emphasizing the importance of the research, though the tone remains relatively straightforward.
The collective tone recognizes the work’s importance in advancing scientific understanding, though it mainly focuses on historical significance rather than current breakthroughs.
Abstract in brief
- The text discusses a detailed 3D model of the myoglobin molecule that was created using X-ray analysis.
- This model helps scientists understand the structure and function of myoglobin, a protein that stores oxygen in muscles.
- Such analysis is important for studying how proteins work and for advancing medical and biological research.]
