* 1996: [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/1997/index.html Paul D. Boyer, John E. Walker, and Jens C. Skou] (Chemistry) "for their elucidation of the enzymatic mechanism underlying the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)". Walker's quarter of the prize was for the structure: see (from 1996) [[1bmf]], [[1cow]], and many subsequent structures. | * 1996: [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/1997/index.html Paul D.

* 2002: [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/2002/index.html John B. Fenn, Koichi Tanaka, and Kurt Wüthrich] (Chemistry) "for the development of methods for identification and structure analyses of biological macromolecules". Fenn and Tanaka each were awarded one quarter of the prize "for their development of soft desorption ionisation methods for mass spectrometric analyses of biological macromolecules", while Wüthrich received his half "for his development of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for determining the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules in solution". | * 2002: [http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/2002/index.html John B.
