Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

His primary scientific interests are in Membrane protein, Crystallography, Transmembrane protein, Transmembrane domain and Biophysics. His Membrane protein study deals with Folding intersecting with Hydrophobic effect. His Crystallography research includes themes of Cholesterol, Bilayer, Halobacterium and Hydrocarbon.

Donald M. Engelman has included themes like Protein structure and Protein folding in his Transmembrane protein study. His Transmembrane domain research integrates issues from Alpha helix, Sequence, Ion channel, Phospholamban and Glycophorin. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Integral membrane protein and Membrane, Biochemistry, Lipid bilayer, Biological membrane.

His most cited work include:

  • Identifying nonpolar transbilayer helices in amino acid sequences of membrane proteins. (1289 citations)
  • A transmembrane helix dimer: structure and implications. (844 citations)
  • Membrane protein folding and oligomerization: the two-stage model. (799 citations)

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

Donald M. Engelman mostly deals with Biophysics, Transmembrane domain, Crystallography, Transmembrane protein and Membrane. His Biophysics study incorporates themes from Protein secondary structure, PH low-insertion peptide, Receptor, Lipid bilayer and Peptide. The Transmembrane domain study combines topics in areas such as Helix, Dimer, Stereochemistry, Hydrogen bond and Glycophorin.

His research in Crystallography intersects with topics in Neutron scattering, Bacteriorhodopsin, Folding, Molecule and Protein structure. He interconnects Integral membrane protein, Membrane protein, Amino acid and Cell biology in the investigation of issues within Transmembrane protein. In his study, Sodium is strongly linked to Chromatography, which falls under the umbrella field of Membrane.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biophysics (34.35%)
  • Transmembrane domain (32.52%)
  • Crystallography (33.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Biophysics (34.35%)
  • Peptide (15.81%)
  • Membrane (30.40%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biophysics, Peptide, Membrane, Transmembrane domain and Lipid bilayer. His work on Membrane binding as part of general Membrane study is frequently connected to Conjugated system, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Transmembrane domain study combines topics in areas such as Crystallography, Biological membrane and Transmembrane protein.

His Crystallography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Membrane fluidity and Peripheral membrane protein. His research in Transmembrane protein intersects with topics in POPC, Membrane protein and Glycophorin. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Lipid bilayer, Helix and Alpha helix is strongly linked to Bilayer.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • MicroRNA silencing for cancer therapy targeted to the tumour microenvironment (500 citations)
  • OncomiR or Tumor Suppressor? The Duplicity of MicroRNAs in Cancer (330 citations)
  • Family of pH (low) insertion peptides for tumor targeting (123 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

Membrane protein, Biophysics, Transmembrane domain, Lipid bilayer and Peptide are his primary areas of study. His Membrane protein study is associated with Biochemistry. Donald M. Engelman has researched Biophysics in several fields, including Radiation oncology, Cell, Nanoparticle and In vivo.

As a part of the same scientific study, Donald M. Engelman usually deals with the Transmembrane domain, concentrating on Bilayer and frequently concerns with Protein structure. The various areas that Donald M. Engelman examines in his Lipid bilayer study include Stereochemistry, Circular dichroism and Peripheral membrane protein. His studies deal with areas such as Crystallography, Extracellular and Folding as well as Membrane.
