Timothy John Richmond (born October 9, 1948, in Corvallis) is an American molecular biologist, biochemist, and biophysicist. He graduated in 1970 with a bachelor's degree in biochemistry from Purdue University, where his teachers included Larry G. Butler (died 1997) and Michael G. Rossmann. Richmond graduated in 1975 from Yale University's department of molecular biophysics and biochemistry with a dissertation on protein-DNA interaction under the supervision of Frederic M. Richards and Thomas A. Steitz. Richmond was a postdoc at Yale University from 1975 to 1978 under the supervision of Frederic M. Richards and from 1978 to 1980 at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology under the supervision of Sir Aaron Klug studying the nucleosome (which is the fundamental subunit of chromatin). Richmon

Dafür erhielt er den Max Perutz Major Award. 1987 wurde er Professor an der ETH Zürich und verbesserte dort die Untersuchung des Nukleosoms in immer höherer Auflösung bis zu 2,8 Angstrom 1997 und 1,9 Angstrom 2002 (d (de)

  • Timothy John Richmond (born October 9, 1948, in Corvallis) is an American molecular biologist, biochemist, and biophysicist. He graduated in 1970 with a bachelor's degree in biochemistry from Purdue University, where his teachers included Larry G. Butler (died 1997) and Michael G. Rossmann. Richmond graduated in 1975 from Yale University's department of molecular biophysics and biochemistry with a dissertation on protein-DNA interaction under the supervision of Frederic M. Richards and Thomas A. Steitz. Richmond was a postdoc at Yale University from 1975 to 1978 under the supervision of Frederic M. Richards and from 1978 to 1980 at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology under the supervision of Sir Aaron Klug studying the nucleosome (which is the fundamental subunit of chromatin). Richmond was from 1980 to 1987 a tenured staff scientist at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology and in 1987 was appointed "Professor of X-ray Crystallography of Biological Macromolecules" at ETH Zurich's Institute for Molecular Biology and Biophysics. At ETH Zurich he became in 2005 vice-chair of the biology department. Richmond’s work provides a basis for integrating decades of biochemical, physical, and genetic studies of chromatin. His focus has been to establish the atomic structures of large macromolecular assemblies, particularly those involved in protein-DNA complexes and to relate these structures to the biological processes of chromatin assembly and transcription regulation. The in­terests of Prof. Rich­mond in teach­ing and research are primar­ily devoted to the re­cog­ni­tion and assembly of biological macro­molecular complexes. X-ray crys­tallography, cryo-electron mi­croscopy and other biophys­ical and bio­chem­ical tech­niques are employed by his laborat­ory. The fo­cus of his research is on the organ­iz­a­tion of DNA in chro­mosomes and the regula­tion of gene expression in higher organ­isms. His laborat­ory has elu­cidated the struc­tures of the nucle­osome core particle and vari­ous transcrip­tion factor complexes. Their work on the nucle­osome core particle, the fun­da­mental repeat­ing unit of chro­matin, resul­ted ul­ti­mately in its atomic descrip­tion at 1.9 å res­ol­u­tion. They have since de­term­ined the organ­iz­a­tion of nucle­osomes in the chro­matin fiber. He was the postdoctoral supervisor of Karolin Luger. Richmond was elected in 1994 a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). He was elected a member in 1995 of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO), in 2000 of the Academia Europaea, in 2004 of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, and in 2007 of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. In 2001 he was awarded an honorary doctor of science degree by Purdue University. His prizes or awards include the Louis-Jeantet Prize for Medicine in 2002 and the Marcel Benoist Prize in 2006. (en)
