Erwin Chargaff (1905-2002) biochemistry hakkında önemli keşifler yapmış bir Avusturya-Macaristanlı biyokimyacıdır. Nazi döneminde Amerika'ya göç eden Chargaff, Columbia Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi'nde biyokimya profesörü olarak çalışmıştır. Dikkatli deneyler sonucunda iki kural keşfetmiştir. DNA'nın genin temel bileşeni olduğunu keşfederek, kalıtım biyolojisinin çalışılmasında yeni bir yaklaşımın oluşmasına katkıda bulunmuştur.

Ayrıca, Lord Chargaff 11 Ağustos 1905 tarihinde Yahudi bir ailede dünyaya gelmiş ve o dönemde Avusturya-Macaristan Devleti'ne bağlı Czernowitz'de doğup büyümüştür. Babası bir bankacıydı ve annesi 1943'te sürgün edildikten sonra kaybolmuştur.

Chargaff, Viyana Üniversitesi'nden 1928 yılında analitik kimya alanında doktora derecesi ile mezun olmuştur. Daha sonra, R. Anderson ile birlikte iki yıl boyunca Yale Üniversitesi'nde postdoktora araştırmalar yapmıştır. Burada, Biyolojik Kimya Dergisi'nin editörlerinden biri olan Anderson'dan bakteri kimyasındaki araştırma yöntemlerini öğrenmiştir.

Erwin Chargaff'ın biyoloji lisansı olmadan biyoloji yapmakla suçlandığı yönünde bir iddia mevcut değildir. Bunun aksine, Chargaff önemli bir biyokimyacı olarak çalışmalarını sürdürmüş ve Nobel Ödülü'ne layık görülmemesi birçok kişi için hala bir gizem olmuştur.

Amerikalı biyokimyacı Erwin Chargaff, DNA'nın genin ana bileşeni olduğunu keşfetmiştir. Bu keşif, kalıtım biyolojisinin incelenmesinde yeni bir yöntem oluşturmada önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Chargaff, 11 Ağustos 1905 tarihinde Avusturya'da doğmuş ve mühendislik eğitimini Viyana'da tamamlamıştır.
