Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Enzyme
  • Hydrogen

Gerd N. La Mar mostly deals with Proton NMR, Heme, Myoglobin, Hemeprotein and Crystallography. Gerd N. La Mar combines subjects such as Biochemistry, Imidazole, Spin, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Horseradish peroxidase with his study of Proton NMR. His Heme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Lability, Relaxation behavior and Kinetic energy.

Myoglobin is closely attributed to Stereochemistry in his research. His research investigates the connection between Hemeprotein and topics such as Paramagnetism that intersect with issues in Crystal. The concepts of his Crystallography study are interwoven with issues in Pi, Hemin, Ferric, Protein structure and Methyl group.

His most cited work include:

  • Proton magnetic resonance investigation of antiferromagnetic oxo-bridged ferric dimers and related high-spin monomeric ferric complexes (139 citations)
  • Heme orientational disorder in reconstituted and native sperm whale myoglobin. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance characterizations by heme methyl deuterium labeling in the Met-cyano protein. (136 citations)
  • NMR of Paramagnetic Molecules: Principles and Applications (130 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Proton NMR, Heme, Stereochemistry, Crystallography and Myoglobin. The Proton NMR study combines topics in areas such as Paramagnetism, Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Molecule, Hydrogen bond and Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. His research investigates the connection between Heme and topics such as Photochemistry that intersect with problems in Nickel.

In his research on the topic of Stereochemistry, Horseradish peroxidase is strongly related with Active site. He interconnects Relaxation, Hyperfine structure, Spin, Ferric and Electronic structure in the investigation of issues within Crystallography. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hemeprotein, Cyanide and Globin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Proton NMR (48.29%)
  • Heme (35.36%)
  • Stereochemistry (32.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1995-2016)?

  • Proton NMR (48.29%)
  • Stereochemistry (32.70%)
  • Heme (35.36%)

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

Gerd N. La Mar mainly investigates Proton NMR, Stereochemistry, Heme, Crystallography and Active site. His Proton NMR study combines topics in areas such as Myoglobin, Paramagnetism, Ligand, Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Molecule. He works on Stereochemistry which deals in particular with Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

His study in Heme is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pyrrole, Cyanide and Globin. The concepts of his Crystallography study are interwoven with issues in Relaxation, Hyperfine structure, Electronic structure, Ferredoxin and Hemeprotein. His Hemeprotein research integrates issues from Ferric and Rhodopseudomonas palustris.

Between 1995 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • NMR of Paramagnetic Molecules: Principles and Applications (130 citations)
  • Solution 1h NMR characterization of equilibrium heme orientational disorder with functional consequences in mouse neuroglobin. (58 citations)
  • Solution and crystal structures of a sperm whale myoglobin triple mutant that mimics the sulfide-binding hemoglobin from Lucina pectinata. (43 citations)
