George Wells Beadle and Edward Lawrie Tatum's 1941 article "Genetic Control of Biochemical Reactions inNeurospora" detailed their experiments on how genesregulated chemical reactions, and how the chemical reactions in turn affected development in the organism. Beadle and Tatum experimented on Neurospora, a type of bread mold, and they concluded that mutations to genesaffected the enzymes of organisms, a result that biologists later generalized to proteins, not just enzymes

The organism Neurospora was suited for the type of study that Beadle and Tatum conducted. The scientists bombarded the spores with X-rays to cause mutations in their genes.
