Dr. John C. Kendrew
Trinity College
Cambridge, England
Dear Dr. Kendrew:
I was very pleased to receive your letter, and to learn about the work that you are now carrying on. We are sending you some of our reprints in the field of immunochemistry and crystal structure under separate cover. Dr. Corey is getting a good start again now on the structure of amino acids and peptides. I have not been doing anything recently on hemoglobin, except to begin a study of the nature of the hemoglobin in relation to the phenomenon of sickling in sickle cell anemia.
I shall look forward to seeing you in England next
year. Please give my regards to Dr. Roughton, and also to Perutz.
Sincerely yours,
Linus Pauling
