Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Viral replication, Influenza A virus, Dengue virus and RNA interference. A large part of his Virology studies is devoted to Viral Receptor. His Viral replication research incorporates themes from Transcription, Gene and Forward genetics.

His Influenza A virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hemagglutinin, Interferon and Ebola virus. His Dengue virus study is focused on Virus in general. His RNA interference research includes themes of Arbovirus, Functional genomics, Flavivirus, Computational biology and Candidate gene.

His most cited work include:

  • Identification of Host Proteins Required for HIV Infection Through a Functional Genomic Screen (1245 citations)
  • The IFITM Proteins Mediate Cellular Resistance to Influenza A H1N1 Virus, West Nile Virus, and Dengue Virus (897 citations)
  • The IFITM Proteins Mediate Cellular Resistance to Influenza A H1N1 Virus, West Nile Virus, and Dengue Virus (897 citations)

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

Abraham L. Brass mainly focuses on Virology, Viral replication, Cell biology, Influenza A virus and Virus. Abraham L. Brass has included themes like Immunology and Microbiology in his Virology study. His Viral replication research incorporates elements of RNA, RNA interference, Reverse transcriptase, Gene and Molecular biology.

He performs integrative Influenza A virus and Membrane protein research in his work. His studies deal with areas such as Cell culture, Innate immune system and Endosome as well as Interferon. As a part of the same scientific study, Abraham L. Brass usually deals with the Innate immune system, concentrating on Antibody-dependent enhancement and frequently concerns with Immune system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (81.93%)
  • Viral replication (60.24%)
  • Cell biology (28.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Virology (81.93%)
  • Virus (25.30%)
  • Cell biology (28.92%)

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

Abraham L. Brass mainly focuses on Virology, Virus, Cell biology, Viral entry and Computational biology. In his works, Abraham L. Brass undertakes multidisciplinary study on Virology and Rilpivirine. His Virus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Interferon, Nucleus, Gene, Heterochromatin and Endosome.

His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Gene knockout, Mechanism of action, Yeast and Sulforaphane. Abraham L. Brass interconnects Lytic cycle and Picornavirus in the investigation of issues within Viral entry. His Computational biology research incorporates themes from CRISPR, Antigenicity, Glycoprotein, Glycan and Genetic screen.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Capsid-CPSF6 Interaction Licenses Nuclear HIV-1 Trafficking to Sites of Viral DNA Integration. (69 citations)
  • OR14I1 is a receptor for the human cytomegalovirus pentameric complex and defines viral epithelial cell tropism. (51 citations)
  • A highly potent long-acting small-molecule HIV-1 capsid inhibitor with efficacy in a humanized mouse model (44 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Capsid, Drug resistance, Dosing and Small molecule. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Virus, Lipid bilayer fusion, Human cytomegalovirus and Cell fusion. His study in Virus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Interferon and Endocytic cycle.

Abraham L. Brass has researched Capsid in several fields, including Integrase, Heterochromatin, HIV integration and Nucleus. His Drug resistance research incorporates elements of Humanized mouse, In vitro, Potency and Virology.
