  Noted Hopkins Molecular Biologist, Daniel Nathans Dies   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Daniel Nathans, M.D., was a 1978 recipient of the Nobel Prize and a 1993 recipient of the nation's highest scientific award, the National Medal of Science.
The research for which Nathans, his colleague Hamilton O. Smith, and Swiss microbiologist Werner Arber shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology was a basis for much of today's genetic research at Hopkins and elsewhere.
In 1969, while Nathans was studying a virus, SV40, that created cancers in apes, Smith came forward with interesting news: He had isolated a protein that could cut a piece of DNA, the material containing the "blueprint" of life.

 HHMI's BioInteractive - Jeremy H. Nathans, M.D., Ph. D.
It was as a graduate student at Stanford that Dr. Nathans first became attracted to the study of the eye and the mechanism of vision.
Nathans' research strategy was based on the thesis that the light-absorbing protein found in rods—rhodopsin—would be similar to color vision pigments.
Nathans demonstrated that most people with aberrant color vision—commonly referred to as "color blindness"—have variant forms of one or another of the cone cell pigments.

Nathans claimed that his father saw him as "the last chance to have a doctor in the family" (2).
In what proved to be a colossal understatement, Nathans replied that the finding "could be useful for many things." Nathans' research team would begin a few preliminary experiments, he noted, "if everybody is interested to see if it looks promising" (5).
Nathans sensed Danna was ready for a change—an earlier dissertation project had ended in chaos, with pulverized rat liver spilled across Danna's lab bench.

 Jeremy Nathans
The principal research interests of the Nathans lab center on two areas: (1) the structure and function of the vertebrate visual system and (2) the origins of pattern formation in development.
Research in the Nathans laboratory on pattern formation focuses on the mechanism of action and biological role of a large family of transmembrane receptors referred to as "Frizzled" proteins, a name that reflects the odd appearance of those Drosophila in which one of the Frizzled genes is mutated.
In both areas of research, the Nathans laboratory uses genetically engineered mice, cell culture approaches, in vitro biochemical experiments with purified proteins, and the analysis of genes and proteins responsible for inherited human diseases.

First off, the frank used at the original Nathan's in Coney Island and some of the better franchises is an 8 to a lb dog with natural casing.
Though I've never eaten at the original Nathan's in Coney Island, I have to say their dogs are pretty good at an airport when the alternative is a booiled burger or stale nachos with orange goo.
And to the guy who called Nathan's a poor imitation of a hot dog your taste buds must not have matured enough to appreciate a Nathan's Frank.
