Philipp Christen spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Chaperone, Protein folding, Hsp70 and Escherichia coli. His study in Peptide, Protein degradation, Binding site, Enzyme and Glyoxylate cycle is carried out as part of his studies in Biochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Heat shock protein, Biophysics and Circular dichroism as well as Chaperone.

His Protein folding study combines topics in areas such as Metal ions in aqueous solution, Metalloid and Protein aggregation. His research in Escherichia coli intersects with topics in Mutant and Heat shock. The Cofactor study combines topics in areas such as Amino acid, Transamination, Stereochemistry and Aldimine.

Between 2001 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Demonstration of the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway by using 13C metabolomics (170 citations)
  • Heavy Metals and Metalloids As a Cause for Protein Misfolding and Aggregation (169 citations)
  • The kinetic parameters and energy cost of the Hsp70 chaperone as a polypeptide unfoldase (158 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Gene

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Chaperone, Protein folding, Protein aggregation and Hsp70. Protein degradation, Escherichia coli, Peptide, Glyoxylate cycle and Serine are the subjects of his Biochemistry studies. His Protein folding research incorporates elements of Heat shock protein, Helix, Adenosine triphosphate, Circular dichroism and Dimer.

His Heat shock protein research incorporates themes from Protein biosynthesis, Crystallography, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Arsenite. Philipp Christen combines subjects such as Thiol, Biophysics and Metal toxicity, Toxicity, Cadmium with his study of Protein aggregation. His Hsp70 study which covers Dissociation that intersects with In vitro, Enzyme kinetics and Native state.
