"A Three-Dimensional Model of the Myoglobin Molecule Obtained by X-Ray Analysis", in Nature, vol.181, pp.662-666, 1958; "Structure of Myoglobin: A Three-Dimensional Fourier Synthesis at 2 A.

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.
