He, together with his wife Gerty Cori and Argentine physiologist Bernardo Houssay , received a Nobel Prize in 1947 for their discovery of how the glucose derivative glycogen (animal starch) is broken down and ...
Cori cycle. The Cori cycle (also known as the lactic acid cycle), named after its discoverers, Carl Ferdinand Cori and Gerty Cori, [1] is a metabolic pathway in which lactate, produced by anaerobic glycolysis in muscles, is transported to the liver and converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is cyclically metabolized back to lactate.

She went on to research diseases related to the storage of glycogen where these enzymes were absent. [13] [14] She applied some of Carl Cori's findings to medical cases, [15] and confirmed the second known case of fructose bisphosphatase deficiency, a rare metabolic disorder, in 1970.

It was isolated and its activity characterized in detail by Carl F. Cori, Gerhard Schmidt and Gerty T. Cori. [ 23 ] [ 24 ] Arda Green and Gerty Cori crystallized it for the first time in 1943 [ 25 ] and illustrated that glycogen phosphorylase existed in either the a or b forms depending on its phosphorylation state, as well as in the R or T ...
