Povzetek

This paper honors the legacy of Professor Andrei Vinogradov, a prominent Russian biochemist whose pioneering work in bioenergetics has had a lasting impact on the field of mitochondrial biochemistry.

Andrei’s scientific career started at Moscow State University in 1964, during the former USSR. He later pursued postdoctoral training in the laboratories of the world-known figures in bioenergetics—Britton Chance, Efraim Racker, and Thomas Singer – where he focused on purifying and characterizing mitochondrial membrane proteins. In the 1970s, Vinogradov established a laboratory at the Biochemistry Department of Moscow University. Over the years, his research group performed extensive studies of key mitochondrial membrane enzymes, including succinate dehydrogenase, calcium transporters, ATP synthase, and Complex I.

This tribute, composed by his colleagues and former students, honors Andrei Vinogradov’s extraordinary contributions to mitochondrial biochemistry and the enduring impact he left on the bioenergetics community.
