Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Amino acid

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Lactococcus lactis, Bacteria, Membrane and Amino acid. His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Biophysics. His Lactococcus lactis study also includes

  • Oligopeptide transport together with Peptide transport and Lactococcus,
  • Nisin which is related to area like Membrane lipids and Lipid bilayer.

His Lactobacillus and Microorganism study in the realm of Bacteria connects with subjects such as Energy source. His work in Membrane tackles topics such as Escherichia coli which are related to areas like Transporter, Thermophile, Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, Mesophile and Sulfolobales. His study in the field of Glycine is also linked to topics like Starvation.

His most cited work include:

  • The proteolytic systems of lactic acid bacteria (603 citations)
  • Beer spoilage bacteria and hop resistance (304 citations)
  • Multidrug resistance mediated by a bacterial homolog of the human multidrug transporter MDR1 (254 citations)

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

Wil N. Konings mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Membrane, Lactococcus lactis, Biophysics and Chemiosmosis. Wil N. Konings focuses mostly in the field of Biochemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Bacteria and, in some cases, Microbiology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Liposome, Bacillus subtilis and Analytical chemistry.

As a part of the same scientific study, Wil N. Konings usually deals with the Lactococcus lactis, concentrating on Peptide and frequently concerns with Bacteriocin. While the research belongs to areas of Electrochemical gradient, Wil N. Konings spends his time largely on the problem of Membrane potential, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Antiporter. Wil N. Konings has researched Transporter in several fields, including Transport protein and Escherichia coli.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (69.64%)
  • Membrane (20.65%)
  • Lactococcus lactis (20.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (69.64%)
  • ATP-binding cassette transporter (7.29%)
  • Lactococcus lactis (20.65%)

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

Biochemistry, ATP-binding cassette transporter, Lactococcus lactis, Efflux and Transporter are his primary areas of study. His Biochemistry research includes elements of Microbiology and Bacteria. His study in ATP-binding cassette transporter is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sulfolobus solfataricus, Multiple drug resistance, Pyrococcus and Signal peptide.

His research integrates issues of Mutant, Photoaffinity labeling, Peptide sequence, Oligopeptide binding and Drug Binding Site in his study of Lactococcus lactis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Thiol, Vesicle, Membrane transport, Substrate and Chemiosmosis. He has researched Transporter in several fields, including Transport protein, Antiporter and Escherichia coli.

Between 2000 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Beer spoilage bacteria and hop resistance (304 citations)
  • Distribution and Physiology of ABC-Type Transporters Contributing to Multidrug Resistance in Bacteria (195 citations)
  • Hop Resistance in the Beer Spoilage Bacterium Lactobacillus brevis Is Mediated by the ATP-Binding Cassette Multidrug Transporter HorA (150 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Amino acid

Wil N. Konings focuses on Biochemistry, ATP-binding cassette transporter, Bacteria, Efflux and Hyperthermophile. While working in this field, Wil N. Konings studies both Biochemistry and Energy source. His studies in ATP-binding cassette transporter integrate themes in fields like Multiple drug resistance, Lactococcus lactis, Pyrococcus and Signal peptide.

His research in Bacteria tackles topics such as Chemiosmosis which are related to areas like Respiratory chain, Membrane transport, Osmolyte, Amino acid and Psychrophile. His Efflux study combines topics in areas such as Antibiotic resistance and Membrane protein. His work carried out in the field of Membrane brings together such families of science as Potassium and Protonation.
