A foundational work as the first three-dimensional determination of a protein structure and first direct visualization of the internal architecture of a biological macromolecule. These works led to John C. Kendrew and Max Perutz's Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1962 for their discoveries concerning the structure of globular proteins.
