Microbiology. Institutions. University of Cambridge. Max Planck Institute for Medical Research. Pasteur Institute. André Michel Lwoff (8 May 1902 – 30 September 1994) [1] [2] [3] was a French microbiologist and Nobel laureate of Russian-Polish origin.
Biographical. André Michel Lwoff was born on 8 May 1902 in Ainay-le-Château (Allier). He joined the Institut Pasteur at the age of 19. He had graduated in science and had done one year of medicine. Lwoff completed his studies while working in the laboratory.
He was the first to discover that small molecules, coenzymes, can function as vitamins essential for cell growth. Some microorganisms such as colibacillus synthesize them, whereas for others external sources are necessary. André Lwoff thus defined the status and role of growth factors.
André Lwoff was a one of the pioneers of molecular biology. In 1965 he received, together with Jacques Monod and François Jacob, the Nobel Prize (medicine and physiology) for the important contributions he made to fundamental virology and for his discoveries of roles of vitamins.
