Koji Nakanishi mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Retinal, Rhodopsin and Photochemistry. Koji Nakanishi combines subjects such as Ouabain and Fluorescence with his study of Biochemistry. Koji Nakanishi works mostly in the field of Stereochemistry, limiting it down to concerns involving Adduct and, occasionally, Benzopyrene and DNA.
His work deals with themes such as Lipofuscin, Biophysics, Pigment and Chlamydomonas, which intersect with Retinal. His Rhodopsin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phototaxis, Visual phototransduction and Photoprotein. His Photochemistry research incorporates themes from Bacteriorhodopsin and Protonation.
His primary areas of study are Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Organic chemistry, Chromophore and Rhodopsin. His study ties his expertise on Adduct together with the subject of Stereochemistry. His Chromophore study is concerned with the field of Photochemistry as a whole.
His Rhodopsin study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Retinal. His Retinal study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Biophysics. His Circular dichroism research includes themes of Exciton and Porphyrin.
His main research concerns Stereochemistry, Ginkgolides, Biochemistry, Organic chemistry and Ginkgolide. His work on Porphyrin expands to the thematically related Stereochemistry. His study on Ginkgolides also encompasses disciplines like
His works in Retinal pigment epithelium, Lipofuscin, Rhodopsin, Retinal and Biotinylation are all subjects of inquiry into Biochemistry. His research investigates the connection between Retinal and topics such as Biophysics that intersect with issues in Fluorophore. Koji Nakanishi works mostly in the field of Circular dichroism, limiting it down to topics relating to Photochemistry and, in certain cases, Singlet oxygen and Pigment.
Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Retinal, Circular dichroism and Ginkgolides are his primary areas of study. His research ties Polyene and Stereochemistry together. Koji Nakanishi works on Biochemistry which deals in particular with Retinal pigment epithelium.
His research in Retinal intersects with topics in Lipofuscin, Biophysics, Membrane and Cleavage. His work carried out in the field of Circular dichroism brings together such families of science as Photochemistry, Porphyrin, Dichroic glass, Fluorescence and Exciton. His Ginkgolides study combines topics in areas such as Receptor, Bilobalide and Ginkgolide.
