Dr. E. B. Rubloff
Laboratory Director
Nutrilite Products, Inc.
Buena Park, California
Dear Dr. Rubloff:
I thank you very much for your kind letter of January 8. I am pleased that you liked my talk about the structure of proteins.
As to your question about the genic basis of differences in the structure of protein complexes, I am sure that the answer can be made that it is well substantiated that in fact these differences in structure of different proteins are due to differences in the genes. We have produced evidence, and other people also have, to show that the difference between sickle cell anemia hemoglobin and normal hemoglobin is the result of a difference in a single gene. In many other cases the correlation between relatively small changes in protein structure and the existence of different alleles has been shown.
Again let me thank you for writing to me.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling:W
