He found this transforming substance was hereditary, but died in a bombing on London before he could discovery it was DNA.

In ‘44, him and his colleagues would identify that the transforming substance held the genetic material for the organisms, but at the time was faced by skepticism, but later when proven Avery was credited for his work.

He would discover its sugar, nitrogen base, phosphate group structure, and would discover the 4 bases it uses. Erwin would also identify that Adenine (A) always matched with Thymine (T) and Guanine (G) would always match with Cytosine (C).

She would strive to make clearer and clearer x-rays of DNA that would later let James Watson and Francis Crick discover the double helix shape.

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick would identify DNA’s structure being a double helix shape. They also would they theorized that each strand of DNA would be the blueprints for the body. Watson and Crick would also propose the idea of the chromosome and the explanation of the replication of the gene.
