James A. Lake (born August 10, 1941, Kearney, Nebraska) is an American evolutionary biologist and a Distinguished Professor of Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology and of Human Genetics at UCLA. Lake is best known for the New Animal Phylogeny and for the first three-dimensional structure of the ribosome. He has also made significant contributions to understanding genome evolution across all kingdoms of life, including discovering informational and operational genes, elucidating the complexity hypothesis for gene transfer, rooting the tree of life, and understanding the early transition from prokaryotic to eukaryotic life.

  • James Albert Lake (* 10. August 1941 in Kearney) ist ein US-amerikanischer Evolutionsbiologe und Molekularbiologe. Lake studierte Physik an der University of Colorado in Boulder mit dem Bachelor-Abschluss 1963 und wurde 1967 an der University of Wisconsin-Madison in Physik promoviert. Seiner Dissertation war über die Struktur von Transfer-RNA. Als Post-Doktorand in Molekularbiologie war er am MIT und an der Harvard Medical School (ab 1968). Ab 1970 war er Assistant Professor am Lehrstuhl für Zellbiologie von George Palade an der Rockefeller University, ar ab 1973 Associate Professor an der New York University Medical School und wurde 1976 Professor für Molekularbiologie an der University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).

  • James A. Lake (n. 10 de agosto de 1941, Nebraska-EE.UU.) es un biólogo evolutivo y profesor distinguido de Biología molecular, celular, del desarrollo y Genética humana de la UCLA (imagen). Lake es más conocido por la nueva filogenia animal y por el estudio pionero de la estructura tridimensional del ribosoma. También ha realizado importantes contribuciones a la comprensión de la evolución del genoma en todos los reinos de la vida, incluyendo el descubrimiento de genes informativos y operativos, dilucidando además la complejidad de la transferencia de genes, el enraizamiento del árbol de la vida y la comprensión de la transición temprana desde la vida procariota a la eucariota (eucariogénesis), así como la reconstrucción de la filogenia animal.
