Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Peptide sequence, Bence Jones protein, Antibody and Stereochemistry. His study connects Gamma globulin and Biochemistry. His Peptide sequence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Immunoglobulin light chain, Protein structure and Homology.

His Bence Jones protein study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Immunoglobulin structure, Globulin, Chromatography, Multiple myeloma and Immunoelectrophoresis. His work carried out in the field of Stereochemistry brings together such families of science as Mutation, Point mutation, Genetics and Allotype. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Protein primary structure, Sequence is strongly linked to Amino acid.

His most cited work include:

  • The Chemistry of Protein Denaturation. (276 citations)
  • Complete Amino Acid Sequence of the Mu Heavy Chain of a Human IgM Immunoglobulin (233 citations)
  • The interactions of proteins and synthetic detergents. (166 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Peptide sequence, Bence Jones protein, Antibody and Chromatography. His Amino acid, Human serum albumin, Albumin, Trypsin and Ceruloplasmin investigations are all subjects of Biochemistry research. His study in Peptide sequence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Immunoglobulin light chain, Sequence analysis, Homology and Stereochemistry.

His study on Bence Jones protein also encompasses disciplines like

  • Multiple myeloma and related Proteins metabolism,
  • Globulin, which have a strong connection to Gamma globulin. His Antibody study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sequence and Antigen. His Chromatography research incorporates elements of Urea and Digestion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (49.09%)
  • Peptide sequence (27.88%)
  • Bence Jones protein (16.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1987-2009)?

  • Biochemistry (49.09%)
  • Molecular biology (11.52%)
  • Albumin (6.06%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Albumin, Human serum albumin and Point mutation. Frank W. Putnam interconnects Biophysics and Macroglobulins in the investigation of issues within Biochemistry. His Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Gamma globulin, Alpha, Electrophoresis, Heavy chain disease and Beta.

His studies in Human serum albumin integrate themes in fields like Sialic acid, Peptide sequence, Bovine serum albumin, Sequence analysis and Serum albumin. His research in Point mutation tackles topics such as Frameshift mutation which are related to areas like Congenital analbuminemia and Genetic variation. His research in Glycoprotein intersects with topics in High-performance liquid chromatography, Chromatography and Carbohydrate.

Between 1987 and 2009, his most popular works were:

  • Analbuminemia: three cases resulting from different point mutations in the albumin gene (65 citations)
  • A nucleotide insertion and frameshift cause analbuminemia in an Italian family (51 citations)
  • Disturbances of "self" in victims of childhood sexual abuse. (37 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Point mutation, Albumin, Mutation, Genetics and Molecular biology. His Albumin study is focused on Biochemistry in general. In Mutation, Frank W. Putnam works on issues like Analbuminemia, which are connected to Stop codon and Transition.

His Genetics research focuses on Serum albumin and how it connects with Genetic variation, Peptide sequence, Sequence analysis and Human serum albumin. His work on Frameshift mutation expands to the thematically related Molecular biology. His research integrates issues of Blood serum and Exon in his study of Gene mutation.
