Hartmut Michel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hartmut Michel is a German biochemist and Nobel Laureate.

He was born 18 July 1948 in Ludwigsburg. After compulsory military service, he studied biochemistry at Tubingen University, working for his final year at Dieter Oesterhelt’s laboratory on ATPase activity of halobacteria.

In 1986, he received the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, which is the highest honour awarded in German research.

He later worked on the crystallisation of membrane proteins - essential for their structure elucidation by X-ray crystallography. He received the Nobel Prize jointly with Johann Deisenhofer and Robert Huber in 1988.

Since 1987 he is director of the Molecular Membrane Biology department at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysics in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and professor of biochemistry at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University there.
