Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Actin

His primary areas of investigation include Actin, Tropomyosin, Biophysics, Myosin and Biochemistry. He combines subjects such as Crystallography, Protein filament and Muscle contraction with his study of Actin. His Tropomyosin study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Contraction.

His Biophysics research incorporates themes from Protein structure, Calcium ATPase, Fimbrin and Skeletal muscle. William Lehman has included themes like Caldesmon and Filamentous actin in his Myosin study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Actin remodeling, Actin cytoskeleton, Calcium and Microfilament.

His most cited work include:

  • Steric-model for activation of muscle thin filaments (405 citations)
  • Regulation in molluscan muscles (320 citations)
  • Regulation of muscular contraction. Distribution of actin control and myosin control in the animal kingdom. (317 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Actin, Tropomyosin, Biophysics, Myosin and Biochemistry. His work carried out in the field of Actin brings together such families of science as Caldesmon, Protein filament and Muscle contraction. His Tropomyosin research includes elements of Crystallography, Coiled coil, Mutant and Actin cytoskeleton.

His work in Biophysics tackles topics such as Actin-binding protein which are related to areas like Arp2/3 complex. The concepts of his Myosin study are interwoven with issues in Calcium and Myofibril. His Biochemistry study frequently links to other fields, such as Troponin C.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Actin (82.26%)
  • Tropomyosin (71.51%)
  • Biophysics (64.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Tropomyosin (71.51%)
  • Actin (82.26%)
  • Biophysics (64.52%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Tropomyosin, Actin, Biophysics, Myosin and Protein filament. His work in the fields of Tropomyosin, such as Myosin binding, overlaps with other areas such as Molecular dynamics. William Lehman usually deals with Myosin binding and limits it to topics linked to Myosin head and Motor protein, Myofibril and Skeletal muscle.

His specific area of interest is Actin, where William Lehman studies Striated muscle contraction. The Biophysics study combines topics in areas such as Biochemistry, Mutant and Muscle contraction. His study in the field of CrossBridge also crosses realms of Mechanism.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Thin Filament Structure and the Steric Blocking Model. (40 citations)
  • Structural determinants of muscle thin filament cooperativity. (25 citations)
  • Distortion of the Actin A-Triad Results in Contractile Disinhibition and Cardiomyopathy. (19 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Actin

William Lehman mainly investigates Biophysics, Tropomyosin, Actin, Myosin and Protein filament. His Striated muscle contraction and Myofilament study, which is part of a larger body of work in Biophysics, is frequently linked to Diffusion and Electrostatic interaction, bridging the gap between disciplines. William Lehman has researched Tropomyosin in several fields, including Mutation, Coiled coil, Myosin head and Actin cytoskeleton.

His Actin cytoskeleton research includes themes of Myosin Subfragments, Myofibril and Anatomy, Skeletal muscle. His Actin research is classified as research in Biochemistry. His work deals with themes such as Muscle relaxation, Calcium metabolism and Motility, which intersect with Mutant.
