Patrick Cramer is one of the most popular and richest Biologist who was born on February 3, 1969 in Stuttgart, Germany. Patrick Cramer (born 2 February 1969 in Stuttgart, Germany) is a German scientist, chemist structural biologist, chemist and molecular biologist of systems. In the year 2020, he was honored to be an international membre of the National Academy of Sciences.
1 January 2014 Patrick Cramer was appointed Director at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry in Gottingen, Germany.
In April, 2020, Dr Cramer’s team at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysical Chemistry created the first “3D structure of the corona polymerase” for the COVID-19 virus. Their model will allow researchers “to investigate how antiviral drugs such as remdesivir – which blocks the polymerase – work, and to search for new inhibitory substances.”
Patrick Cramer conducts basic research as the director of the Department of Molecular Biology at the Max Planck Institute in Gottingen. He is also scientist manager and an Honorary Professor at the University of Gottingen. As part of his postdoctoral studies in collaboration with Roger Kornberg, Cramer determined the three-dimensional atomic design for RNA polymerase II which is one of the largest enzymes found in the nucleus of cells. This research played a crucial part in you consider that Nobel Prize in chemistry was presented by Roger Kornberg in 2006 for research into the molecular foundations of transcription in eukaryotes.
