Summary Introduction
Heinrich Hermann Robert Koch was a physician and microbiologist. He was the founder of modern bacteriology and he identified the causative agents for the diseases such as anthrax, tuberculosis and cholera. Koch gave an experimental support for infectious diseases in animals and humans. He created a technique and technologies in the area of

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas.
