12. THE SKOU LECTURE Chairman: Allan Flyvbjerg, Dean of Faculty 14.45 Nobel Laureate John Walker: Professor Sir John Ernest Walker won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1997. The prize was shared with Paul Boyer for their explanation of the enzymatic process that creates adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Another 1997 Nobel Prize winner was Jens Christian Skou – after whom the Skou Lecture is named – for the first discovery of an ion-transporting enzyme, Na+, K+-ATPase. Walker received his BA in Chemistry in 1964 and in 1969 gained a DPhil from the Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, Oxford. In 1974, he attended a research workshop in Cambridge on the Sequence Analysis of Proteins, where he met Fred Sanger (chemistry laureate, 1958) who invited him to join the Protein and Nucleic Acid Chemistry Division at the Medical Research Council’s Laboratory of Molecular Biology (MRC LMB) in Cambridge, UK. It was here that Walker carried out his award-winning work. In 1978, he began to apply protein chemical methods to membrane proteins. The enzymes from the inner membranes of mitochondria had hardly been studied from a structural point of view. Therefore, Walker began a structural study of ATP synthase from bovine heart mitochondria and eubacteria. These studies resulted in a complete sequence analysis, and in the atomic structure of the enzyme, giving new insights into how ATP is made in the biological world. John Walker is currently a director of the Medical Research Council Mitochondrial Biology Unit in Cambridge. Walker has received several international awards, and in 1995, was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. In 1999 he was knighted for his services to molecular biology. John Walker was born in Halifax, Yorkshire on January 7, 1941. He married Christina Westcott in 1963, and they have two daughters.
