Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Ralf Erdmann mostly deals with Biochemistry, Peroxisome, Peroxin, Cell biology and Peroxisomal matrix. His Biochemistry and Peroxisomal targeting signal, Peroxisome-Targeting Signal 1 Receptor, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Fungal protein and Peptide sequence investigations all form part of his Biochemistry research activities. His work carried out in the field of Peroxisomal targeting signal brings together such families of science as Transport protein and Signal peptide.

He interconnects Protein primary structure, Biogenesis, Endoplasmic reticulum and Membrane protein in the investigation of issues within Peroxisome. His work in Cell biology addresses issues such as Receptor, which are connected to fields such as Chromosomal translocation and Cytosol. His Peroxisomal matrix research integrates issues from Microbody and Ubiquitin.

His most cited work include:

  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
  • A unified nomenclature for peroxisome biogenesis factors. (357 citations)
  • PAS1, a yeast gene required for peroxisome biogenesis, encodes a member of a novel family of putative ATPases (288 citations)

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

Ralf Erdmann spends much of his time researching Peroxisome, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Peroxisomal targeting signal and Peroxisomal matrix. He works in the field of Peroxisome, focusing on Peroxin in particular. The concepts of his Peroxin study are interwoven with issues in Glycosome and Microbody.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Transport protein, Peroxisome-Targeting Signal 1 Receptor, Plasma protein binding and Fungal protein are the core of his Biochemistry study. His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Receptor, Ubiquitin, Peroxisomal membrane and Protein targeting. Ralf Erdmann has included themes like Docking, Binding site and Signal peptide in his Peroxisomal targeting signal study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Peroxisome (74.23%)
  • Biochemistry (64.95%)
  • Cell biology (53.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Peroxisome (74.23%)
  • Cell biology (53.09%)
  • Biochemistry (64.95%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Peroxisome, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Peroxisomal matrix and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His study involves Peroxisomal targeting signal and Peroxin, a branch of Peroxisome. His studies deal with areas such as Regulation of gene expression, Biogenesis, Cytoskeleton and Protein targeting as well as Cell biology.

His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Chromatography and Trypanosoma. In Peroxisomal matrix, Ralf Erdmann works on issues like Ubiquitin, which are connected to Fusion protein. His Computational biology research incorporates themes from Autophagosome, Autolysosome, MAP1LC3B, Chaperone-mediated autophagy and Sequestosome 1.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
  • Molecular snapshots of the Pex1/6 AAA+ complex in action (47 citations)
  • Super-resolution microscopy reveals compartmentalization of peroxisomal membrane proteins (42 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Ralf Erdmann mainly focuses on Peroxisome, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Peroxisomal targeting signal and Membrane protein. In general Peroxisome, his work in Peroxisomal matrix and Sterol carrier protein is often linked to Super-resolution microscopy linking many areas of study. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Biogenesis and Protein targeting.

Ralf Erdmann has researched Protein targeting in several fields, including Peroxin and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His work on Glycosome and Plasma protein binding is typically connected to ATPase complex and Protein phosphorylation as part of general Biochemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science. Ralf Erdmann combines subjects such as Transport protein, TRPM Cation Channels and Transmembrane protein with his study of Peroxisomal targeting signal.
