Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Gene

Bernard Weisblum focuses on Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Antimicrobial and Microbiology. His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Nucleic acid sequence, Erythromycin, Lincomycin and Plasmid. His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Derivative, Reagent and Polymer.

His studies deal with areas such as Folding and Structure–activity relationship as well as Stereochemistry. His Antimicrobial research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Amphiphile, Oligomer, Peptide and Bacteria. His research combines 23S ribosomal RNA and Microbiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Erythromycin resistance by ribosome modification. (812 citations)
  • Nucleotide sequence and functional map of pC194, a plasmid that specifies inducible chloramphenicol resistance. (575 citations)
  • Non-haemolytic β-amino-acid oligomers (480 citations)

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

Bernard Weisblum mostly deals with Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Stereochemistry, Peptide and Microbiology. Bernard Weisblum studied Biochemistry and Bacillus subtilis that intersect with Cell wall and Autolysis. He combines subjects such as Plasmid, Nucleic acid sequence, DNA, Messenger RNA and Ribosome with his study of Molecular biology.

His work carried out in the field of Stereochemistry brings together such families of science as Amphiphile, Antimicrobial, Cationic polymerization, Side chain and Structure–activity relationship. His work on Magainin is typically connected to Motif as part of general Peptide study, connecting several disciplines of science. Bernard Weisblum works mostly in the field of Microbiology, limiting it down to concerns involving Staphylococcus aureus and, occasionally, Ribosomal RNA and Antibiotic resistance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (36.79%)
  • Molecular biology (28.30%)
  • Stereochemistry (23.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (36.79%)
  • Stereochemistry (23.58%)
  • Peptide (21.70%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Peptide, Microbiology and Structure–activity relationship. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacteria in addition to Biochemistry. He interconnects Biological activity, Protein subunit, Sequence, Cationic polymerization and Side chain in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry.

In general Peptide study, his work on Magainin often relates to the realm of Zipper, thereby connecting several areas of interest. As a part of the same scientific study, Bernard Weisblum usually deals with the Microbiology, concentrating on Staphylococcus aureus and frequently concerns with Antibiotics, Clostridium difficile and Bacillus cereus. His study in Structure–activity relationship is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Folding and Candida albicans.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mimicry of antimicrobial host-defense peptides by random copolymers. (305 citations)
  • Interplay among Folding, Sequence, and Lipophilicity in the Antibacterial and Hemolytic Activities of α/β-Peptides (173 citations)
  • Structure-activity relationships among random nylon-3 copolymers that mimic antibacterial host-defense peptides. (148 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Gene

His primary scientific interests are in Structure–activity relationship, Stereochemistry, Candida albicans, Biochemistry and Cationic polymerization. His Structure–activity relationship research includes themes of Fibroblast, Protein folding, Folding, Protein structure and Biological activity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Peptide sequence, Computational biology and Sequence.

His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bacterial cell structure, Membrane, Polymerization and Peptide. Candida albicans is a subfield of Microbiology that Bernard Weisblum investigates. His Cationic polymerization research includes elements of Side chain, Polymer and Protein subunit.
