Richard J. Roberts is a molecular biologist, the winner, with Phillip A. Sharp, of the 1993 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his independent discovery of “split genes.” Roberts received a Ph.D.
Roberts prokázal, že eukaryotní geny jsou často přerušeny nekódujícími sekvencemi, známými jako introny, což vedlo k pochopení mechanismu alternativního sestřihu RNA.
