Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Andrea Musacchio mainly focuses on Cell biology, Kinetochore, Spindle checkpoint, Protein structure and Biochemistry. Andrea Musacchio has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Cell cycle checkpoint, Ubiquitin binding, Ndc80 complex and Aurora B kinase. Her Ndc80 complex research includes themes of Fragmentation, Microtubule, Kinetochore assembly and NDC80.

Her studies deal with areas such as Spindle apparatus and Mitosis as well as Kinetochore. She combines subjects such as Mitotic checkpoint complex, Chromosome segregation and Mad1 with her study of Spindle checkpoint. Her work carried out in the field of Mitotic checkpoint complex brings together such families of science as Mad2 and Mad2 Proteins.

Her most cited work include:

  • The spindle-assembly checkpoint in space and time. (1756 citations)
  • GSK-3-Selective Inhibitors Derived from Tyrian Purple Indirubins (669 citations)
  • Kinetochore microtubule dynamics and attachment stability are regulated by Hec1. (575 citations)

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

Andrea Musacchio spends much of her time researching Cell biology, Kinetochore, Spindle checkpoint, Mitosis and Spindle apparatus. Her Cell biology research includes elements of Cell cycle checkpoint, Mad2, Kinetochore assembly, BUB1 and Aurora B kinase. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Centromere, Microtubule and Chromosome segregation.

Her study in Spindle checkpoint is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both BUB3, Mitotic checkpoint complex, Anaphase, Mad1 and Phosphorylation. Her Mitosis research incorporates elements of Dynein, Mitotic exit, PLK1 and Cyclin B. Her research integrates issues of Protein structure, Kinetochore microtubule and Spindle pole body in her study of Ndc80 complex.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (94.78%)
  • Kinetochore (67.83%)
  • Spindle checkpoint (38.70%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cell biology (94.78%)
  • Kinetochore (67.83%)
  • NDC80 (23.04%)

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

Her main research concerns Cell biology, Kinetochore, NDC80, Microtubule and Mitosis. Her Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Recombinant DNA, DNA, Centromere, Nucleosome and Electroporation. Her Centromere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Aurora B kinase and PLK1.

Her work is dedicated to discovering how Kinetochore, Chromosome segregation are connected with Cell division and other disciplines. In Mitosis, she works on issues like Cyclin-dependent kinase 1, which are connected to Spindle checkpoint, Mad1, Cyclin B and BUB1. Her research in Spindle checkpoint intersects with topics in Kinase and Cyclin.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Human Condensin I and II Drive Extensive ATP-Dependent Compaction of Nucleosome-Bound DNA (39 citations)
  • Cyclin B1 scaffolds MAD1 at the kinetochore corona to activate the mitotic checkpoint. (19 citations)
  • Electroporated recombinant proteins as tools for in vivo functional complementation, imaging and chemical biology (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Andrea Musacchio mainly focuses on Cell biology, Kinetochore, Chromosome segregation, Nucleosome and In vivo. Her Cell biology research focuses on Kinase in particular. Her work in the fields of NDC80 overlaps with other areas such as Microtubule end.

Her Chromosome segregation study incorporates themes from Centromere, Plasma protein binding, Eukaryotic chromosome fine structure and Chaperone. Her Nucleosome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Condensin II, Histone H3 and Condensin complex. The various areas that Andrea Musacchio examines in her In vivo study include Complementation, Chemical biology, Electroporation and Recombinant DNA.
