Michael Marletta

Marletta is the CH and Annie Li Chair in the Molecular Biology of Diseases, professor of chemistry, and professor of biochemistry, biophysics, and structural biology at Berkeley. Questions under investigation in his laboratory lie at the interface of chemistry and biology with a particular emphasis on the study of protein function and enzyme reaction mechanisms and a focus on molecular answers to complex function in biology. He received his B.A., from SUNY College at Fredonia (1973); Ph.D., from UCSFG (1978); and was NIH Postdoctoral Fellow in the department of chemistry at M.I.T. (1978–80).
