==Two Types of "Impact"==
+
email: {{Template:Decatur_email}}
-
Macromolecular 3D structures can impact '''scientific understanding''' and/or '''save lives''' by contributing to [[Structure-based drug design]]. The first list below, [[#Highest Impact Macromolecular Structures of All Time|Highest Impact Macromolecular Structures of All Time]], concerns impact on scientific understanding. A separate list below concerns [[#Structures Saving The Most Lives|Structures Saving The Most Lives]].

* '''1953 - DNA double helix''' (B form): Although Watson and Crick's model was theoretical, it was essentially correct, and for the first time explained the ability of genes to be faithfully copied during cell division. It was not confirmed by atomic resolution X-ray crystallography until 1973, using RNA dinucleotide crystals. A full turn of B form DNA was not solved until 1980 (cf. [[1bna]]), 27 years after Watson and Crick's model. More: click on DNA at the [http://atlas.molviz.org Atlas of Macromolecules]

* '''1958 - Myoglobin''': As the first protein structure that was determined, it is hard to exaggerate its impact. Before this structure, there was very little understanding of 3D protein structure.

-
* '''1970 - Deoxy-hemoglobin''': M. Perutz' second hemoglobin structure proved to be at least as important as the first, published two years earlier, as it demonstrated that a protein can have several conformations, and that its physiological role depends on how it changes from one to the other.

-
* '''1978 - Tobacco bushy stunt virus''': S. Harrison offered the first atomic scale image of a complete biological object, a plant virus. It was a technical feat, and revealed rules of architecture that, a few years later (1985), were shown to apply to human pathogens such as the common cold and the poliomyelitis viruses.

+
-
* '''1987 - [[Major_Histocompatibility_Complex_Class_I | Major histocompatibility complex class I]]''': Created a paradigm shift in cellular immunology by explaining how MHC is involved in presenting hidden intracellular proteins to T lymphocytes. During the decade prior to this structure, this was a constantly debated but very murky mystery.

-
 
+
-
* '''2000(?) - Ribosome''': This structure surprised almost everyone by showing that peptidyl transferase is a ribozyme, rather than a protein enzyme.

==Structures Saving The Most Lives==

Structures of the following molecules were used in [[Structure-based drug design|structure-based drug design]], and the resulting drugs have saved large numbers of lives.

* [[Avian Influenza Neuraminidase, Tamiflu and Relenza|Influenza virus neuraminidase structure]] was used in designing the neuraminidase inhibitors [[Avian Influenza Neuraminidase, Tamiflu and Relenza|oseltamivir (Tamiflu&reg;) and zanamivir (Relenza&reg;)]]. Roche, the manufacturer of Tamiflu, estimates that 50 million people have been treated with this drug<ref>[http://www.roche.com/med-cor-2007-04-26 Roche update on Tamiflu for pandemic influenza preparedness], Media Release, April 26, 2007.</ref>. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochrane_Collaboration Cochrane Collaboration] concluded that neuriminidase inhibitors "are effective in preventing and treating the symptoms and complications of influenza"<ref>[http://mrw.interscience.wiley.com/cochrane/clsysrev/articles/CD001265/frame.html Neuraminidase inhibitors for preventing and treating influenza in healthy adults], T. Jefferson ''et al.'', Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Issue 4, 2008. DOI [http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD001265.pub2 10.1002/14651858.CD001265.pub2]</ref>. Influenza kills hundreds of thousands of people annually<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza Influenza] in Wikipedia.</ref>, including 40,000 in the United States<ref>[http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/163/2/181 Mortality due to Influenza in the United States—An Annualized Regression Approach Using Multiple-Cause Mortality Data], J. Dushoff ''et al.'', Am. J. Epidemiol. 163:181-7, 2006.</ref>. While it is difficult to estimate the lives saved by these drugs, the number seems likely to be large.
