Accession Number & Location: 98-008; Boxes (Cartons) #63 & #64; Morrell Park Storage Room.
Arrangement: As found, by folder title, somewhat chronological.
Biographical Sketch: Born in Kennan, Wisconsin 1926, Kandutsch graduated from Ripon College with a B.A. in Biology/Chemistry in 1950, with an M.S. in Biochemistry in 1952, and from The University of Wisconsin with a Ph.D. in Biochemistry in 1954. From 1954 until his retirement in 1991, he maintained a research laboratory at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, becoming a Senior Staff Scientist in 1964, and serving as Research Director and Deputy Director of the organization. He served on the editorial boards of three major journals, maintained membership in NIH Physiological Chemistry Section, and authored over 120 publications. The major focus of his work was development of a model to explain the regulation of the biochemical reactions that produce cholesterol in organisms; his research identified a specific cytosolic oxysterol binding protein which led to studies of its interaction with DNA.
