Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Biochemistry
  • Cell membrane

His main research concerns Membrane, Biochemistry, Liquid ordered phase, Biophysics and Lipid raft. The various areas that Erwin London examines in his Membrane study include Quenching, Liposome and Cell biology. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Endocytosis and Cell membrane.

His Liquid ordered phase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sphingolipid and Membrane lipids. His study focuses on the intersection of Sphingolipid and fields such as Cholesterol with connections in the field of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine. Erwin London has included themes like Octyl glucoside, Fluorescence spectroscopy, Diphtheria toxin, Circular dichroism and Chromatography in his Biophysics study.

His most cited work include:

  • Functions of lipid rafts in biological membranes. (2627 citations)
  • Structure and function of sphingolipid- and cholesterol-rich membrane rafts. (2073 citations)
  • STRUCTURE AND ORIGIN OF ORDERED LIPID DOMAINS IN BIOLOGICAL MEMBRANES (831 citations)

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

Erwin London mostly deals with Membrane, Biophysics, Vesicle, Biochemistry and Lipid bilayer. Erwin London studies Membrane, focusing on Bilayer in particular. His Biophysics research integrates issues from Lipid vesicle, Sphingomyelin, Domain formation, Protein structure and Membrane protein.

His Vesicle research focuses on subjects like Phospholipid, which are linked to Chromatography. The Lipid bilayer study which covers Biological membrane that intersects with Peripheral membrane protein and Cell membrane. He interconnects Membrane fluidity, Liquid ordered phase and Borrelia burgdorferi in the investigation of issues within Lipid raft.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Membrane (60.10%)
  • Biophysics (44.33%)
  • Vesicle (32.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Biophysics (44.33%)
  • Membrane (60.10%)
  • Vesicle (32.02%)

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

Biophysics, Membrane, Vesicle, Biochemistry and Sterol are his primary areas of study. His Biophysics research includes elements of Lipid composition, Sphingomyelin, Domain formation, Förster resonance energy transfer and Lipid bilayer. In his works, Erwin London conducts interdisciplinary research on Membrane and Plasma.

His Vesicle study combines topics in areas such as Liposome, Cationic polymerization, Bilayer and Fluorescence anisotropy. His is doing research in Lipid raft, Sphingolipid, Membrane lipids and Mutant, both of which are found in Biochemistry. His Lipid raft research is classified as research in Cell biology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Subnanometer Structure of an Asymmetric Model Membrane: Interleaflet Coupling Influences Domain Properties (62 citations)
  • Preparation of asymmetric phospholipid vesicles for use as cell membrane models. (52 citations)
  • Islet Amyloid Polypeptide Membrane Interactions: Effects of Membrane Composition (49 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Biochemistry
  • Cell membrane

His primary scientific interests are in Membrane, Biophysics, Vesicle, Biochemistry and Sphingomyelin. His Membrane research incorporates elements of Sterol and Cell biology. His Biophysics study incorporates themes from Thermal stability and Förster resonance energy transfer.

His Vesicle study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bilayer and Activation energy. His Membrane lipids, Sphingolipid, Virulence and Phosphatidylcholine study in the realm of Biochemistry interacts with subjects such as Galactoside. His research integrates issues of Lipid raft, Membrane fluidity and Biological membrane in his study of Membrane lipids.
