Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Konrad Sandhoff is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Sphingolipid

His Primary (astronomy) research focuses on Astronomy and how it connects with Chain (unit). His work on Chain (unit) is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Astronomy. He applies his multidisciplinary studies on Biochemistry and Metabolism in his research. His study brings together the fields of Sphingolipid and Cell biology. Konrad Sandhoff integrates Sphingolipid and Lipid signaling in his studies. His Enzyme study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Substrate specificity. Konrad Sandhoff performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Gene and Apoptosis via his papers. He performs integrative study on Apoptosis and Ceramide in his works. By researching both Ceramide and Lipid signaling, Konrad Sandhoff produces research that crosses academic boundaries.

His most cited work include:

  • Ganglioside metabolism. Enzymology, Topology, and regulation. (264 citations)
  • Partial Enzyme Deficiencies: Residual Activities and the Development of Neurological Disorders (262 citations)
  • Sphingolipid Activator Protein D (sap-D) Stimulates the Lysosomal Degradation of Ceramide in Vivo (143 citations)

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

His work on Biochemistry as part of his general Endoplasmic reticulum study is frequently connected to Membrane, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Sphingomyelin research extends to the thematically linked field of Biochemistry. He is exploring Enzyme as part of his Hexosaminidase and Lysosome and Enzyme studies. Cell biology is intertwined with Sphingolipid and Intracellular in his research. His Intracellular study frequently involves adjacent topics like Cell biology. Konrad Sandhoff integrates several fields in his works, including Gene and Activator (genetics). Konrad Sandhoff merges many fields, such as Apoptosis and Ceramide, in his writings. He applies his multidisciplinary studies on Ceramide and Apoptosis in his research. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Activator (genetics) and Receptor.

Konrad Sandhoff most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (86.49%)
  • Enzyme (48.65%)
  • Cell biology (40.54%)
