Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Cholesterol, Sterol, Oxysterol and Sterol regulatory element-binding protein. His Cholesterol study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Liver X receptor and ABCA1. His ABCA1 research includes elements of Efflux, Transcription factor and HMG-CoA reductase.

Andrew J. Brown has included themes like Alpha, Sterol O-acyltransferase and Cytotoxicity in his Oxysterol study. The Sterol regulatory element-binding protein study combines topics in areas such as Transport protein, Cell biology and Lipid metabolism. His 27-Hydroxycholesterol course of study focuses on In vivo and Homeostasis.

His most cited work include:

  • Oxysterols and atherosclerosis (746 citations)
  • Cholesterol Addition to ER Membranes Alters Conformation of SCAP, the SREBP Escort Protein that Regulates Cholesterol Metabolism (353 citations)
  • Fld1p, a functional homologue of human seipin, regulates the size of lipid droplets in yeast. (341 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Andrew J. Brown focuses on Cholesterol, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. ABCA1 is closely connected to Liver X receptor in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Cholesterol. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin ligase.

His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in LNCaP and Antioxidant, Vitamin E. He usually deals with Oxysterol and limits it to topics linked to Metabolism and In vitro. He interconnects Flux and Homeostasis in the investigation of issues within Sterol.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cholesterol (40.77%)
  • Biochemistry (39.48%)
  • Cell biology (27.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (27.04%)
  • Squalene monooxygenase (12.88%)
  • Cholesterol (40.77%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Andrew J. Brown mostly deals with Cell biology, Squalene monooxygenase, Cholesterol, Enzyme and Biochemistry. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Ubiquitin ligase and Sterol. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Sterol, Receptor is strongly linked to Reductase.

His Squalene monooxygenase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ubiquitin, Gene knockdown, Cancer stem cell, Squalene and Metastasis. His Cholesterol research is covered under the topics of Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Andrew J. Brown has researched Enzyme in several fields, including Immune system and Proteasome.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • ORP2 Delivers Cholesterol to the Plasma Membrane in Exchange for Phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-Bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) (58 citations)
  • Allosteric enhancement of ORP1-mediated cholesterol transport by PI(4,5)P2/PI(3,4)P2. (30 citations)
  • Non-canonical ubiquitination of the cholesterol-regulated degron of squalene monooxygenase (19 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Andrew J. Brown mainly investigates Cholesterol, Cell biology, Squalene monooxygenase, Ubiquitin ligase and Enzyme. His research on Cholesterol concerns the broader Biochemistry. His Lanosterol and HMG-CoA reductase study in the realm of Biochemistry interacts with subjects such as Degradation.

His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Transcriptional regulation and Cell growth. The study incorporates disciplines such as Squalene, Computational biology, Cholesterol biosynthesis and Mechanism of action in addition to Squalene monooxygenase. The various areas that Andrew J. Brown examines in his Enzyme study include Cell metabolism, Cell, Oxysterol, Immune system and Function.
