Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Synaptic vesicle, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Exocytosis and Synaptobrevin. His research investigates the connection between Synaptic vesicle and topics such as Neurotransmission that intersect with issues in Neurotransmitter. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as R-SNARE Proteins, SNARE complex, Lipid bilayer fusion, Munc-18 and Vesicle fusion.

His studies examine the connections between Biochemistry and genetics, as well as such issues in Biophysics, with regards to Microscopy and Fluorescence. He has included themes like Synaptic vesicle exocytosis, Vesicle docking and Neuroscience in his Exocytosis study. His Synaptobrevin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in SNAP23, Neurotoxin, Clostridium botulinum, Peptide and Syntaxin.

His most cited work include:

  • Crystal structure of a SNARE complex involved in synaptic exocytosis at 2.4 Å resolution (2046 citations)
  • SNAREs--engines for membrane fusion. (1900 citations)
  • Molecular Anatomy of a Trafficking Organelle (1648 citations)

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

Reinhard Jahn mainly investigates Cell biology, Synaptic vesicle, Exocytosis, Biophysics and Vesicle. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like SNARE complex, Lipid bilayer fusion, Synaptobrevin, Munc-18 and Vesicle fusion. The study incorporates disciplines such as R-SNARE Proteins and Syntaxin in addition to Synaptobrevin.

His Synaptic vesicle research is classified as research in Biochemistry. His Exocytosis research includes elements of Neuroscience and Membrane protein. His research integrates issues of Crystallography and Membrane in his study of Biophysics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (51.57%)
  • Synaptic vesicle (46.64%)
  • Exocytosis (30.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Cell biology (51.57%)
  • Biophysics (27.58%)
  • Synaptic vesicle (46.64%)

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

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Biophysics, Synaptic vesicle, Vesicle and Membrane. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Exocytosis, Active zone and Synaptotagmin 1. Reinhard Jahn combines subjects such as Lipid bilayer fusion, Calcium, Nanotechnology, Biochemistry and Vesicle docking with his study of Biophysics.

His research in Lipid bilayer fusion focuses on subjects like Synaptobrevin, which are connected to Membrane curvature. Particularly relevant to SNAP25 is his body of work in Synaptic vesicle. Reinhard Jahn studies Vesicle, focusing on Vesicle fusion in particular.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate clusters act as molecular beacons for vesicle recruitment (176 citations)
  • The GTPase Rab26 links synaptic vesicles to the autophagy pathway (117 citations)
  • Storage and uptake of D-serine into astrocytic synaptic-like vesicles specify gliotransmission. (114 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Reinhard Jahn spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Synaptic vesicle, Exocytosis, Vesicle and Biophysics. His work deals with themes such as SNAP25, Vesicle fusion, Endocytosis and Synaptobrevin, which intersect with Cell biology. In general Synaptic vesicle study, his work on Porosome often relates to the realm of Autophagy, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Exocytosis research integrates issues from Vesicle docking, Filopodia formation, Synaptotagmin 1, Membrane morphology and Membrane lipids. His research in Vesicle is mostly focused on Syntaxin. His research in Biophysics intersects with topics in SNARE complex, Lipid bilayer fusion, Biochemistry, Protein insertion and Functional studies.
