2001 - 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
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biophysics, Membrane, Vesicle, Lipid bilayer and Lipid bilayer fusion. Biophysics and Biochemistry are commonly linked in his work. The Vesicle study combines topics in areas such as Phase transition, Synthetic membrane, Crystallography, Analytical chemistry and Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine.

The various areas that Barry R. Lentz examines in his Analytical chemistry study include Fluorescence anisotropy and Fluorescence. His study in Lipid bilayer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both ATPase, Endoplasmic reticulum and Liposome. Barry R. Lentz has researched Lipid bilayer fusion in several fields, including Vesicle fusion and Cell biology.

His most cited work include:

  • A calorimetric and fluorescent probe study of the gel-liquid crystalline phase transition in small, single-lamellar dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles. (415 citations)
  • Membrane “fluidity” as detected by diphenylhexatriene probes (337 citations)
  • Use of fluorescent probes to monitor molecular order and motions within liposome bilayers (294 citations)

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

Barry R. Lentz spends much of his time researching Membrane, Biophysics, Vesicle, Biochemistry and Phosphatidylserine. His research on Membrane frequently links to adjacent areas such as Crystallography. His Biophysics study incorporates themes from Diphenylhexatriene, Sphingomyelin, Synthetic membrane, Analytical chemistry and Phosphatidylglycerol.

He combines subjects such as Ethylene glycol, Chromatography, Lipid bilayer fusion and Lipid bilayer with his study of Vesicle. Barry R. Lentz interconnects Bilayer and Synaptic vesicle in the investigation of issues within Lipid bilayer. His Phosphatidylserine research integrates issues from Factor X, Thrombin, Stereochemistry, Phosphatidylethanolamine and Binding site.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Membrane (43.37%)
  • Biophysics (40.82%)
  • Vesicle (37.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Biophysics (40.82%)
  • Membrane (43.37%)
  • Vesicle (37.76%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biophysics, Membrane, Vesicle, Crystallography and Lipid bilayer fusion. His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biochemistry, Phosphatidylserine, Phosphatidylethanolamine and Prothrombinase. His Thrombin research extends to the thematically linked field of Membrane.

His work deals with themes such as Hexadecane, Sphingomyelin, Cell membrane and Biological membrane, which intersect with Vesicle. His Crystallography study also includes

  • SNARE complex and Synaptobrevin most often made with reference to Vesicle fusion,
  • Lipid bilayer, which have a strong connection to Bilayer and Peptide. Many of his research projects under Lipid bilayer fusion are closely connected to Fusion protein with Fusion protein, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Activation Thermodynamics of Poly(Ethylene Glycol)-Mediated Model Membrane Fusion Support Mechanistic Models of Stalk and Pore Formation (25 citations)
  • Phosphatidylserine inhibits and calcium promotes model membrane fusion. (21 citations)
  • Fusion peptides promote formation of bilayer cubic phases in lipid dispersions. An x-ray diffraction study. (21 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Amino acid

His main research concerns Biophysics, Vesicle, Biochemistry, Membrane and Lipid bilayer fusion. His studies in Biophysics integrate themes in fields like Macromolecule, Sphingomyelin and Fibrinogen binding. His Vesicle research incorporates themes from Crystallography, Hexadecane, Lipid bilayer and Cell membrane.

Barry R. Lentz is interested in Phosphatidylserine, which is a field of Biochemistry. His Phosphatidylserine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Plasma protein binding, Calcium and Thrombin. His Lipid bilayer fusion research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bilayer and Thermodynamics.
