Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy focuses on Biochemistry, Biophysics, Membrane, Lipid bilayer and Peptide. His study in Biochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Islet and Amyloid. His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nanoparticle, Organic chemistry and Membrane lipids.

The concepts of his Membrane study are interwoven with issues in Liposome, Helix, Micelle and P3 peptide. Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy has researched Lipid bilayer in several fields, including Crystallography and Bilayer. His studies deal with areas such as Protein structure, In vitro and Amyloid fibers as well as Peptide.

His most cited work include:

  • Ultrastrong and Stiff Layered Polymer Nanocomposites (1181 citations)
  • Studies on anticancer activities of antimicrobial peptides. (824 citations)
  • LL-37, the only human member of the cathelicidin family of antimicrobial peptides. (656 citations)

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

Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy mainly focuses on Biophysics, Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Biochemistry and Peptide. His Biophysics research incorporates themes from Amylin, Amyloid and Membrane, Lipid bilayer, Membrane protein.

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

His main research concerns Biophysics, Polymer, Lipid bilayer, Membrane and Amyloid. Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy interconnects Amylin, Protein aggregation, Cytochrome P450, Membrane associated and Peptide in the investigation of issues within Biophysics. His Polymer study incorporates themes from Self-assembly, Nanotechnology, Surface modification, Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance and Membrane protein.

In his research, Spectral resolution and Crystallography is intimately related to Magic angle spinning, which falls under the overarching field of Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. His Lipid bilayer research incorporates elements of Spectroscopy, Cytochrome b5 and Mechanism. As part of one scientific family, Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy deals mainly with the area of Membrane, narrowing it down to issues related to the Structural biology, and often Organic chemistry.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bioinspired, Size-Tunable Self-Assembly of Polymer-Lipid Bilayer Nanodiscs. (67 citations)
  • Reduced Lipid Bilayer Thickness Regulates the Aggregation and Cytotoxicity of Amyloid-β (63 citations)
  • Proton-Based Ultrafast Magic Angle Spinning Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy (58 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of investigation include Biophysics, Membrane, Lipid bilayer, Amyloid and Membrane protein. The study incorporates disciplines such as Amyloid beta, Peptide, Protein aggregation, Protein folding and Monomer in addition to Biophysics. His work carried out in the field of Membrane brings together such families of science as Kinetics, Structural biology and Cytochrome P450.

To a larger extent, Ayyalusamy Ramamoorthy studies Biochemistry with the aim of understanding Lipid bilayer.
