Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Basement membrane, Triple helix, Peptide sequence and Type IV collagen. His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology and Cell adhesion molecule. His Basement membrane study combines topics in areas such as Laminin and Biophysics.

His work in Triple helix addresses issues such as Crystallography, which are connected to fields such as Monomer, Stereochemistry, Membrane and Hydrophobic effect. The concepts of his Peptide sequence study are interwoven with issues in Complementary DNA and Oligonucleotide. His study in Type IV collagen is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Integrin and Binding site.

His most cited work include:

  • A Network Model for the Organization of Type IV Collagen Molecules in Basement Membranes (763 citations)
  • The primary structure of collagen. (277 citations)
  • Basement membrane (type IV) collagen (235 citations)

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

Biochemistry, Peptide sequence, Peptide, Stereochemistry and Molecular biology are his primary areas of study. His Peptide sequence research integrates issues from Protein structure and DNA. His study explores the link between Peptide and topics such as Procollagen peptidase that cross with problems in Biophysics.

Klaus Kühn is studying Triple helix, which is a component of Stereochemistry. His Molecular biology research includes themes of Complementary DNA and Gene. Klaus Kühn works mostly in the field of Type IV collagen, limiting it down to topics relating to Basement membrane and, in certain cases, Laminin, as a part of the same area of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (41.48%)
  • Peptide sequence (25.19%)
  • Peptide (22.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1989-2005)?

  • Binding site (11.11%)
  • Molecular biology (15.56%)
  • Biochemistry (41.48%)

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

Klaus Kühn mainly investigates Binding site, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Integrin and Gene. His research investigates the connection between Binding site and topics such as Extracellular matrix that intersect with issues in Integrin ligand. The Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Factor VII, Dermis and Basement membrane.

His studies deal with areas such as Type IV collagen, Cell adhesion and Lamina densa as well as Integrin. His Type IV collagen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Crystallography, Cleavage and Stereochemistry. His Stereochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peptide sequence, Peptide and Monomer.

Between 1989 and 2005, his most popular works were:

  • Basement membrane (type IV) collagen (235 citations)
  • Interaction of type IV collagen with the isolated integrins α1β1 and α2β1 (195 citations)
  • Characterization of a type IV collagen major cell binding site with affinity to the alpha 1 beta 1 and the alpha 2 beta 1 integrins. (192 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

His primary scientific interests are in Integrin, Stereochemistry, Binding site, Biochemistry and Type IV collagen. His Stereochemistry study incorporates themes from Crystallography, Peptide sequence, Membrane and Peptide. His work carried out in the field of Peptide sequence brings together such families of science as Protein structure, Side chain and Triple helix.

His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Alpha and Biochemistry. His studies in Type IV collagen integrate themes in fields like Receptor, Dissociation constant, Protein primary structure and Glycoprotein. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ligand, Biophysics, Cell-matrix adhesion, G alpha subunit and Molecular biology in addition to Collagen receptor.
