Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His main research concerns Genetics, Stem cell, Cell biology, Germline and P element. His work is connected to Gene, Transposable element, Drosophila melanogaster, Drosophila Protein and Regulation of gene expression, as a part of Genetics. His Stem cell research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Asymmetric stem cell division and Cellular differentiation, Adult stem cell.

His study in the fields of Progenitor cell under the domain of Cell biology overlaps with other disciplines such as Programmed cell death. His research integrates issues of Stem cell division, Spectrosome, Embryo and Germ cell in his study of Germline. He combines subjects such as Cloning, Vector, DNA and Transposition with his study of P element.

His most cited work include:

  • The genome sequence of Drosophila melanogaster (5233 citations)
  • Genetic transformation of Drosophila with transposable element vectors (2586 citations)
  • Stem Cells and Niches: Mechanisms That Promote Stem Cell Maintenance throughout Life (1445 citations)

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

Allan C. Spradling focuses on Cell biology, Genetics, Stem cell, Gene and Germline. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Cell division, Cellular differentiation and Somatic cell. His study in Transposable element, P element, Genome, Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophilidae are all subfields of Genetics.

His work in the fields of Stem cell, such as Progenitor cell, intersects with other areas such as Ecological niche. His study in Gene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology, Computational biology and DNA. His work on Germ line development as part of general Germline research is frequently linked to Cyst, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (48.50%)
  • Genetics (47.00%)
  • Stem cell (24.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cell biology (48.50%)
  • Gene (23.00%)
  • Somatic cell (11.50%)

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

Allan C. Spradling mainly focuses on Cell biology, Gene, Somatic cell, Stem cell and Computational biology. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ribosome profiling, Drosophila and Cellular differentiation. His Gene study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Genetics.

The concepts of his Somatic cell study are interwoven with issues in Embryonic stem cell, Oogenesis, Epithelium and Germline. His Stem cell study incorporates themes from Cell and Notch signaling pathway. His Computational biology study also includes

  • Homology together with Plasmid, Cas9 and Intron,
  • DNA, which have a strong connection to Genome.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A gene-specific T2A-GAL4 library for Drosophila (74 citations)
  • Fragile X mental retardation 1 gene enhances the translation of large autism-related proteins. (61 citations)
  • Dietary Lipids Modulate Notch Signaling and Influence Adult Intestinal Development and Metabolism in Drosophila. (33 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Cell biology, Computational biology, Cellular differentiation, Gene and Somatic cell are his primary areas of study. His study in Stem cell and Notch signaling pathway is carried out as part of his Cell biology studies. His Computational biology research includes elements of Ecology, Animal development, Disease and Energy metabolism.

His work deals with themes such as Follicle, Embryonic stem cell, Oogenesis and Ovary, which intersect with Cellular differentiation. Gene connects with themes related to DNA in his study. His Somatic cell research integrates issues from Epithelium, Germline, Function, Endogeny and Germ cell.
