Contributions of the 'Rouge-Cloître group' to the notion of 'messenger RNA'.
Most biographical and historical works agree on a common scheme and a few 'founding papers' for the 'discovery' of mRNA. However, a closer scrutiny of these 'founding papers' leads to several unresolved questions with respect to the origin of the notion of mRNA. This paper focuses on the analysis of a set of contributions made by the group of the Rouge-Cloître in order to fill in some of the remaining gaps in the 'standard history'.
