His main research concerns Biochemistry, Endoplasmic reticulum, Biophysics, Ryanodine receptor and Skeletal muscle. Gerhard Meissner has researched Biochemistry in several fields, including Calcium and Muscle contraction. His work carried out in the field of Endoplasmic reticulum brings together such families of science as Ruthenium red, Endocrinology, Differential centrifugation, Vesicle and Internal medicine.

Gerhard Meissner combines subjects such as Membrane channel, Bilayer, Calmodulin and Cytosol with his study of Biophysics. The various areas that he examines in his Ryanodine receptor study include Protein subunit and Cardiac muscle. His Skeletal muscle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Terminal cisternae, Caffeine, Receptor, Phosphatidylethanolamine and Gel electrophoresis.

His most cited work include:

  • Activation of the cardiac calcium release channel (ryanodine receptor) by poly-S-nitrosylation. (893 citations)
  • Physiology of Nitric Oxide in Skeletal Muscle (820 citations)
  • Ryanodine Receptor/Ca2+ Release Channels and Their Regulation by Endogenous Effectors (793 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ryanodine receptor, Endoplasmic reticulum, Biochemistry, Biophysics and Skeletal muscle. His Ryanodine receptor research includes themes of Cardiac muscle and Calmodulin. Gerhard Meissner has included themes like Ruthenium red, Vesicle, Membrane, Membrane potential and Intracellular in his Endoplasmic reticulum study.

His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Calcium, Voltage-dependent calcium channel, Adenine nucleotide, Ion channel and Lipid bilayer. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Electrophysiology, Caffeine, Ion transporter and Cytosol. His research in Skeletal muscle intersects with topics in Depolarization and Muscle contraction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ryanodine receptor (64.07%)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum (54.98%)
  • Biochemistry (48.48%)

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

  • Ryanodine receptor (64.07%)
  • RYR1 (28.57%)
  • Ryanodine receptor 2 (28.14%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ryanodine receptor, RYR1, Ryanodine receptor 2, Biophysics and Calmodulin. His Ryanodine receptor research includes elements of Endocrinology and Ion channel. His work deals with themes such as Protein subunit, Glutathione, Homology modeling, Skeletal muscle and Binding site, which intersect with RYR1.

His studies in Ryanodine receptor 2 integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology, Cardiac muscle and Phosphorylation. His Biophysics research incorporates themes from Electrophysiology, Helix, Transmembrane domain and Ligand. Gerhard Meissner combines subjects such as Myocyte, Cell biology and Mutant with his study of Calmodulin.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The structural basis of ryanodine receptor ion channel function (92 citations)
  • Oxygen-coupled redox regulation of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor-Ca2+ release channel by NADPH oxidase 4 (85 citations)
  • Muscle weakness in Ryr1I4895T/WT knock-in mice as a result of reduced ryanodine receptor Ca2+ ion permeation and release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. (57 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Gerhard Meissner focuses on Ryanodine receptor, RYR1, Biochemistry, Skeletal muscle and Ryanodine receptor 2. Research on Endoplasmic reticulum and Internal medicine is a part of his Ryanodine receptor study. His work is dedicated to discovering how Endoplasmic reticulum, Calcium signaling are connected with Sodium-calcium exchanger, Voltage-dependent calcium channel and Malignant hyperthermia and other disciplines.

His work carried out in the field of RYR1 brings together such families of science as Biophysics and Ion channel. Gerhard Meissner works mostly in the field of Ion channel, limiting it down to concerns involving Cell biology and, occasionally, Cardiac muscle and Calcium. His research investigates the connection with Skeletal muscle and areas like Muscle contraction which intersect with concerns in Glutathione, Vesicle and NOX4.
