Timeline
David Swenson Hogness (November 17, 1925 – December 24, 2019) was an American biochemist, geneticist, and developmental biologist and emeritus professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine in Stanford, California.
Hogness spent most of his youth in Chicago, the son of Thorfin R. Hogness and Phoebe S. Hogness.
His parents were both children of immigrants and graduates of the University of Minnesota; his father later received a PhD in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley, taught at Berkeley, and in 1930 joined the faculty at the University of Chicago.
Hogness married Judith Gore in 1948; the couple had two sons.
Hogness was essential to understanding the ontogeny of Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly).
He examined the role of the hormone ecdysone in the development of the fruit fly.
After service in the Navy, David Hogness acquired his bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1949 at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech); and in 1952, his PhD in biology and chemistry.
As a postdoctoral fellow, he worked with a scholarship of the National Research Council with Jacques Monod at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, and with a grant from the National Science Foundation at the New York University in New York City.
In 1955, Hogness became an instructor of microbiology at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, and was promoted to an assistant professor in 1957.
In 1959, he moved to Stanford University School of Medicine.
In 1961, he became an associate professor and in 1966, he was promoted to full professor of biochemistry.
In 1978, Hogness and his group identified the TATA box (Goldberg-Hogness box) as the start sequence for the transcription of genes in eukaryotes.
Hogness' work contributed to the discovery that the genetic material of eukaryotes consists of non-coding (introns) and coding (exons) sections and that the expression of numerous genes is regulated by so-called cis-elements.
Hogness contributed to the fusion of genetics, molecular biology, and developmental biology.
In 1989, he also became a joint faculty member in Stanford's newly created Department of Developmental Biology.
He was professor emeritus since 1999.
