1966 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Gene

Hemoglobin, Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Bohr effect and Peptide sequence are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Amino acid, Hemolysis, Medicinal chemistry and N-Ethylmaleimide as well as Hemoglobin. Austen Riggs merges Biochemistry with Polymerization in his research.

Austen Riggs interconnects Residue, Alpha helix, Heme and Globin in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry. The Bohr effect study combines topics in areas such as Binding, Mole, Cysteine and Cooperativity. The concepts of his Peptide sequence study are interwoven with issues in Leucine, Glycine, Myoglobin and Histidine.

His most cited work include:

  • [1] Preparation of blood hemoglobins of vertebrates (216 citations)
  • The structure of arthropod hemocyanins. (215 citations)
  • Hemoglobin Kansas, a Human Hemoglobin with a Neutral Amino Acid Substitution and an Abnormal Oxygen Equilibrium (160 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Hemoglobin, Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Bohr effect and Globin. His work deals with themes such as Amino acid, Cooperativity, Tetramer and Metabolism, which intersect with Hemoglobin. His Biochemistry research focuses on subjects like Biophysics, which are linked to Calcium.

His study in Stereochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Residue, Alpha helix, Peptide and Histidine. His Bohr effect research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Zoology, Inorganic chemistry, Adenosine triphosphate, Oxygenation and Mole. His work carried out in the field of Globin brings together such families of science as Lumbricus, Molecular mass, Coding region, Complementary DNA and Molecular biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hemoglobin (62.50%)
  • Biochemistry (53.57%)
  • Stereochemistry (26.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2014)?

  • Hemoglobin (62.50%)
  • Biochemistry (53.57%)
  • Stereochemistry (26.79%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Hemoglobin, Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Crystallography and Globin. His Hemoglobin research incorporates themes from Oxidative phosphorylation, Lumbricus and Cooperativity. Austen Riggs merges many fields, such as Biochemistry and Covalent bond, in his writings.

Austen Riggs combines subjects such as Thioredoxin fold, Active site, Oxygen binding and Heme with his study of Stereochemistry. His Heme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Methemoglobin and Solvent. His research investigates the connection between Globin and topics such as Amino acid that intersect with problems in Oxygen transport.

Between 2000 and 2014, his most popular works were:

  • The 109 Residue Nerve Tissue Minihemoglobin from Cerebratulus lacteus Highlights Striking Structural Plasticity of the α-Helical Globin Fold (42 citations)
  • Properties and regulation of a transiently assembled ERK2.Ets-1 signaling complex. (40 citations)
  • Thr-E11 regulates O2 affinity in Cerebratulus lacteus mini-hemoglobin. (34 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Gene

Austen Riggs spends much of his time researching Stereochemistry, Active site, Hemoglobin, Globin and Biochemistry. Austen Riggs works mostly in the field of Stereochemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Heme and, in certain cases, Partial specific volume, Oxygen binding and Analytical chemistry. His research integrates issues of Amino acid, Oxygen transport, Crystal structure and Hydrogen bond in his study of Active site.

A large part of his Hemoglobin studies is devoted to Methemoglobin. The Globin study combines topics in areas such as Alpha helix, Helix, Protein tertiary structure and Oxygenated Hemoglobin. His research on Biochemistry focuses in particular on Recombinant DNA.
