American #biochemist who shared (with Edwin G. Krebs) the 1992 #NobelPrize for Physiology or #Medicine for the discovery of “reversible #protein #phosphorylation as a biological regulatory mechanism” which governs the activities of proteins in #cells.

They purified and characterized the first #enzyme of this type. Their discovery was a key to unlocking how #glycogen in the body breaks down into #glucose.

It fostered techniques that prevent the body from rejecting transplanted #organs.

Their breakthrough also opened new doors for research into #cancer, #BloodPressure , #inflammatory reactions and #brain signals.
