Nikolaus Pfanner mainly investigates Biochemistry, Cell biology, Translocase of the inner membrane, Mitochondrial membrane transport protein and TIM/TOM complex. His research in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Biophysics which are related to areas like Membrane anchor. His Cell biology research incorporates elements of Vesicle and Fungal protein.
His Translocase of the inner membrane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Translocase of the outer membrane, ATP–ADP translocase, Intermembrane space and Mitochondrial carrier. The various areas that Nikolaus Pfanner examines in his Mitochondrial membrane transport protein study include Inner membrane, Peripheral membrane protein and Protein targeting. Nikolaus Pfanner usually deals with TIM/TOM complex and limits it to topics linked to Sorting and assembly machinery and Integral membrane protein.
His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Translocase of the inner membrane, Biochemistry, Mitochondrion and Translocase of the outer membrane. Nikolaus Pfanner interconnects Translocase, Intermembrane space and Protein targeting in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His studies in Translocase of the inner membrane integrate themes in fields like Mitochondrial carrier, ATP–ADP translocase and Inner membrane.
His work on Receptor, Neurospora crassa and Protein folding as part of general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to Cytochrome b2, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work focuses on many connections between Mitochondrion and other disciplines, such as Membrane, that overlap with his field of interest in Membrane potential. His work deals with themes such as Integral membrane protein, Outer membrane efflux proteins, Peripheral membrane protein and Transmembrane protein, which intersect with Translocase of the outer membrane.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Translocase of the inner membrane, Translocase of the outer membrane, Mitochondrion and Inner mitochondrial membrane. His research integrates issues of Bacterial outer membrane and Translocase in his study of Cell biology. His Translocase of the inner membrane study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Respiratory chain, Intermembrane space and Mitochondrial carrier.
The subject of his Translocase of the outer membrane research is within the realm of ATP–ADP translocase. His Mitochondrion study contributes to a more complete understanding of Biochemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as MICOS complex and Voltage-dependent anion channel in addition to Inner mitochondrial membrane.

His Translocase of the outer membrane research includes themes of TIM/TOM complex, Translocase and Sorting and assembly machinery.
His Translocase of the inner membrane study frequently involves adjacent topics like Mitochondrial carrier. The concepts of his Mitochondrion study are interwoven with issues in Endoplasmic reticulum, Biogenesis, Function and Phosphorylation. His work in Mitochondrial membrane transport protein addresses issues such as ATP–ADP translocase, which are connected to fields such as Protein targeting and mitochondrial fusion.
