Rudolph Albert Peters FRS (Kensington, 13 de abril de 1889 — 29 de janeiro de 1982) foi um bioquímico britânico.

Foi eleito membro da Royal Society em 1935.[1] Foi Professor Whitley de Bioquímica da Universidade de Oxford, de 1923 a 1954.

Vida

Ele nasceu em Kensington, em Londres, filho do Dr. Albert EDR Peters (1863-1945), um médico, e sua esposa, Agnes Malvina Watts (1867-1950).[2]

Ele foi educado no Wellington College, Berkshire, e depois estudou Medicina no King's College London e Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge.[3]

Na Primeira Guerra Mundial, ele serviu no Royal Army Medical Corps como oficial médico do 60º Rifles. A partir de 1917, ele foi designado para a seção de guerra química em Porton Down. Após a guerra, ele voltou para a Universidade de Cambridge lecionando Bioquímica. Em 1923 foi nomeado Professor de Bioquímica na Universidade de Oxford.

Após a Segunda Guerra Mundial, ele pesquisou o metabolismo do piruvato, com foco particular na toxicidade do fluoroacetato. O fato de o fluoroacetato em si ser muito menos tóxico do que seu metabólito fluorocitrato o levou a cunhar o termo " síntese letal ", que foi o título de sua Palestra Crooniana de 1951.[4][5]

Peters se aposentou da academia em 1954 para estabelecer, aos 65 anos, um novo departamento de bioquímica na Unidade de Fisiologia Animal do Agricultural Research Council em Babraham; ele se aposentou cinco anos depois.[6]

Ele foi eleito FRS em 1935. Em 1940, recebeu o Prêmio Cameron de Terapêutica da Universidade de Edimburgo. Ele foi nomeado cavaleiro pela Rainha Elizabeth II em 1952 e eleito Membro Honorário da Royal Society of Edinburgh em 1957.

Ele morreu em Cambridge em 29 de janeiro de 1982 e foi cremado lá em 4 de fevereiro.

Alguns dos papéis de Sir Rudolph estão guardados na Biblioteca Bodleian.[7]
