September  1885 greg. In Moscow , Russian Empire ; †  6. December 1972 in Kiev , Ukrainian SSR ) was a Ukrainian Biochemist . He was president of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR from 1946 to 1962 .

Life

Alexander Palladin was born in Moscow to Vladimir Iwanowitsch Palladin , a well-known Russian botanist and biochemist. After graduating from high school, which he graduated with honors at the St. Petersburg Latin School in 1903, he studied between 1903 and 1908 at the Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of St. Petersburg and in 1909 at the University of Heidelberg . After that, he worked in the Department of Physiology of the St. Petersburg Pedagogical Institute of Women.

From 1916 he was a professor at Kharkov University and from 1925 to 1970 he was the director of the Ukrainian Biochemical Institute. Between 1921 and 1931 he headed the Physiological Chemistry Department of the Kharkov Medical Institute.

From 1934 to 1954 he headed the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Kiev . Between 1939 and 1946 he was Vice President and from 1946 to 1962 President of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences. He was also a member of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR. Palladin died at the age of 87 in Kiev and was buried there in the Baikowe cemetery .

His main work dealt with the biochemistry of vitamins, the metabolism (intracellular carbohydrate and phosphate metabolism) as well as the comparative biochemistry of the nerve tissue and the brain under different functional states. His work on the biochemistry of muscle activity, published in Biological Chemistry , among others , formed the basis of modern concepts of the functional biochemistry of the processes involved in fatigue, muscle relaxation and movement. He published a total of more than 240 scientific papers, including 4 monographs.

Honors and memberships

Palladin received a number of honors and was a member of numerous academic societies:

He was also awarded the Order of Lenin six times (1944, 1945, 1948, 1953, 1955, 1965) and twice the Order of the Red Labor Banner (1941, 1945). The Institute of Biochemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine bears his name.
