Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Klaus Ruckpaul was the leader of cytochrome P450 research in the "East" Germany when the world was politically divided into "East" and "West". Under strong political pressure during the "Cold War", the communication between the scientists in the "East" countries with those in the "West" countries was badly restricted. He wanted to improve the situation, and organized an international gathering of the biochemists studying cytochrome P450. The first meeting was held in 1976, and it developed later into a big international conference named "International Conference on Cytochrome P450, Biochemistry and Biophysics". He and his colleagues also contributed greatly to the elucidation of the mechanism of P450-catalyzed reactions. I respect him for his great contribution to the advancement of biochemical study on cytochrome P450, and feel happy that I have enjoyed a long friendship with him.
