'''Paul Delos Boyer''' (born [[July 31]], [[1918]]) is an [[United States|American]] [[biochemist]]. He is one of the laureates for the 1997 [[Nobel Prize in Chemistry]] for his [[research]] on the "enzymatic mechanism underlying the [[synthesis]] of [[adenosine triphosphate]] (ATP)".

[[Mashpee High School]] is a public high school located in [[Mashpee, Massachusetts]]. Its students are residents of the town of [[Mashpee]]. Mashpee High School is located on [[Old Barnstable Road]], off of [[Route 151]] and on the intersection of Rte. 151 and Old Barnstable Road and adjacent to the [[Lakeside Trailer Park]]. The school has an approximate enrollment of 1,000 students in grades 7-12. The schools mascot is the [[Falcons]] and the schools colors are Royal Blue and White.
==Birth and education==
Boyer was born in [[Provo, Utah]]. He attended [[Provo High School]], where he was active in [[student government]] and the debating team. He received a [[Bachelors of Science|B.S.]] in [[chemistry]] from [[Brigham Young University]] in 1939 and obtained a Wisconsin Alumni Research [[Foundation]] [[Scholarship]] for graduate studies. Five days before leaving for [[Wisconsin]], Paul married Lyda Whicker. They remain married and have three children: Gail B. Hayes, Alexandra Boyer and Dr. Douglas Boyer; and eight grandchildren: Imran Clark, Mashuri Clark, Rashid Clark, Djahari Clark, Faisal Clark, Lisa A. Hayes, Leah Boyer and Josh Boyer.


==Academic career==
==History==
After Boyer received his [[Doctorate of Philosophy|Ph.D.]] degree in [[biochemistry]] from the [[University of Wisconsin-Madison]] in 1943, he spent years at [[Stanford University]] on a war-related research project dedicated to stabilization of serum albumin for transfusions. He began his independent research career at the [[University of Minnesota]] and introduced kinetic, isotopic, and chemical methods for investigating [[enzyme]] mechanisms. In 1955, he received a [[Guggenheim Fellowship]] and worked with [[Professor]] [[Hugo Theorell]] on the mechanism of [[alcohol dehydrogenase]]. In 1956, he accepted a Hill Foundation Professorship and moved to the medical campus of the University of Minnesota. In 1959-1960, he served as [[Chairman]] of the Biochemistry Section of the [[American Chemical Society]] (ACS) and in 1969-1970 as [[President]] of the American Society of Biological Chemists.


[[Mashpee High School]] opened its doors in 1996. Prior to its opening, Mashpee students attended nearby [[Falmouth High School]], which served both the students of [[Mashpee]] and [[Falmouth, Massachusetts|Falmouth]]. Mashpee voted to open its own high school after the town had seen an extremely fast increase to the town's student population. Since 1990, Mashpee's town population has almost tripled in size and is one of the states fastest growing towns. The current town population stands at approximately 15,000 and the student population at roughly 1,100. The high school's Principal currently is Alan Winrar.
Since 1963, he has been a Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at [[University of California, Los Angeles]]. In 1965, he became the Founding Director of the [[Molecular biology|Molecular Biology]] Institute and spearheaded the construction of the building and the organization of an interdepartmental Ph.D. program. This institutional service did not diminish the creativity and originality of his research program, which led to three postulates for the binding mechanism for ATP synthesis-- that energy input was not used primarily to form ATP but to promote the binding of [[phosphate]] and mostly the release of tightly bound ATP; that three identical catalytic sites went through compulsory, sequential binding changes; and that the binding changes of the catalytic subunites, circularly arranged on the periphery of the enzyme, were driven by the rotation of a smaller internal [[subunit]].


==Sports==
Paul Boyer was [[Editing|Editor]] or Associate Editor of the Annual Review of Biochemistry from 1963-1989. He was Editor of the classic series, "The Enzymes". In 1981, he was Faculty Research Lecturer at UCLA.


Mashpee offers a wide variety of interscholastic sports. Mashpee is part of the [[MIAA]]. Mashpee is affiliated with the [[South Shore League]] comprising Mashpee High School, [[Carver High School]], [[Hull High School]], [[Harwich High School]], [[Norwell High School]], [[Cohasset High School]], [[Abington High School]], and [[East Bridgewater High School]]. Before joining the South Shore League, Mashpee was part of the [[Patriot League]]. Mashpee High's mascot is the Falcons and the schools colors are Royal Blue and White. A current list of all athletics, interscholastic and club are listed below.
==Awards==
He received the Rose Award of the American Society of Chemistry and Molecular Biology in 1989; Honorary doctorates from the Universities of Stockholm (1974), Minnesota (1996), and Wisconsin (1998); and the [[Nobel Prize in Chemistry]] in 1997.
