1977 - 1998 | Professor of Microbial Biochemistry

Jurg Rosenbusch was professor for microbial biochemistry at the Biozentrum from 1977 to 1998. He also was a senior scientist and program coordinator in the Structure Divison at EMBL in Heidelberg from 1982 to 1985. With his collaborators, he studied structure-function relationships of microbial membrane proteins at a molecular level: highly ordered crystals allowed the structures of two membrane proteins, porin and bacteriorhodopsin, to be solved to high resolution. His present concern: a project about English renaissance literature.
