Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis

Perry A. Frey mostly deals with Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Active site, Lysine 2,3-aminomutase and Lysine. His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biotin synthase, Bond cleavage, Radical SAM, Enzyme and Adenosylcobalamin. His work carried out in the field of Enzyme brings together such families of science as Decarboxylation and Carboxylation.

His research in Active site intersects with topics in Binding site, Isomerase, Leloir pathway, NAD+ kinase and Histidine. His Lysine 2,3-aminomutase research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cleavage, Photochemistry, Electron paramagnetic resonance, Substrate and Aldimine. His Lysine research incorporates themes from Dithionite and Methionine.

His most cited work include:

  • A low-barrier hydrogen bond in the catalytic triad of serine proteases (553 citations)
  • The Radical SAM Superfamily (385 citations)
  • The Leloir pathway: a mechanistic imperative for three enzymes to change the stereochemical configuration of a single carbon in galactose (365 citations)

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

Perry A. Frey focuses on Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Active site, Enzyme and Lysine 2,3-aminomutase. His research integrates issues of Lysine, Adenosylcobalamin, Cofactor, Substrate and NAD+ kinase in his study of Stereochemistry. His Active site study combines topics in areas such as Hydrolysis, Enzyme kinetics, Binding site and Pyrophosphate.

As part of one scientific family, Perry A. Frey deals mainly with the area of Enzyme, narrowing it down to issues related to the Covalent bond, and often Crystallography and Low-barrier hydrogen bond. His Lysine 2,3-aminomutase course of study focuses on Electron paramagnetic resonance and Steady state. His study looks at the relationship between Organic chemistry and topics such as Medicinal chemistry, which overlap with Inorganic chemistry, Hydrogen bond, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Chymotrypsin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (49.79%)
  • Biochemistry (23.85%)
  • Active site (23.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2016)?

  • Stereochemistry (49.79%)
  • Biochemistry (23.85%)
  • Enzyme (22.18%)

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

Perry A. Frey spends much of his time researching Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Enzyme, Lysine and Lysine 2,3-aminomutase. His Stereochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Adenosylcobalamin, Cofactor, Active site, Radical and Radical SAM. His study in Adenosylcobalamin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cleavage, Bond cleavage, Mutase, Photochemistry and Substrate.

His work in the fields of Enzyme, such as Enzyme catalysis, overlaps with other areas such as FHIT. He combines subjects such as Medicinal chemistry, Equilibrium constant, Intramolecular Transferases and Stereoisomerism with his study of Lysine. His Lysine 2,3-aminomutase research focuses on subjects like Amino acid, which are linked to Conserved sequence, A value and Methylamine.

Between 2003 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The Radical SAM Superfamily (385 citations)
  • The x-ray crystal structure of lysine-2,3-aminomutase from Clostridium subterminale (155 citations)
  • Enzymatic reaction mechanisms (141 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Catalysis

Perry A. Frey mainly investigates Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Lysine 2,3-aminomutase, Radical SAM and Lysine. Perry A. Frey has included themes like Crystallography, Adenosylcobalamin, Cofactor, Active site and Radical substitution in his Stereochemistry study. His work on Enzyme and Phosphate as part of general Biochemistry study is frequently connected to Alkyltransferase, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

He interconnects Photochemistry, Radical and Bond cleavage in the investigation of issues within Lysine 2,3-aminomutase. His study explores the link between Radical SAM and topics such as Cysteine that cross with problems in Molybdopterin. Perry A. Frey has researched Lysine in several fields, including Intramolecular Transferases and Methionine.
