Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Kinetochore, Spindle checkpoint, Spindle apparatus and Cell cycle checkpoint. Andrew W. Murray works in the field of Cell biology, focusing on Mitosis in particular. His Mitosis research includes themes of Cell cycle, Meiosis and Plasmid.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint and Spindle pole body in addition to Spindle checkpoint. Andrew W. Murray works mostly in the field of Maturation promoting factor, limiting it down to topics relating to Cyclin A and, in certain cases, Cyclin D, APC/C activator protein CDH1, Biochemical switches in the cell cycle and Cdc20 Proteins, as a part of the same area of interest. The Anaphase-promoting complex study combines topics in areas such as Mitotic exit and Aurora B kinase.

His most cited work include:

  • From molecular to modular cell biology. (3068 citations)
  • Cyclin is degraded by the ubiquitin pathway (2033 citations)
  • Coding-sequence determinants of gene expression in Escherichia coli (1129 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Genetics, Mitosis, Spindle checkpoint and Kinetochore. The various areas that Andrew W. Murray examines in his Cell biology study include Cell cycle checkpoint, Mad2, G2-M DNA damage checkpoint, Anaphase and Cell cycle. His Mitosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Meiosis, Microtubule, Mitotic exit, Interphase and Condensin.

His Spindle checkpoint study combines topics in areas such as Mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint, Anaphase-promoting complex and Mitotic checkpoint complex. His Kinetochore study also includes

  • Spindle apparatus that intertwine with fields like Cohesin,
  • Sister chromatids which intersects with area such as Chromatid. He interconnects Cyclin A and Cyclin B in the investigation of issues within Maturation promoting factor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (44.09%)
  • Genetics (29.09%)
  • Mitosis (20.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Genetics (29.09%)
  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae (15.91%)
  • Gene (12.73%)

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

Andrew W. Murray mainly investigates Genetics, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Gene, Yeast and DNA replication. He has included themes like Somatic cell, Lineage, Cell division, Multicellular organism and Cell cycle in his Saccharomyces cerevisiae study. Andrew W. Murray usually deals with Cell cycle and limits it to topics linked to Cohesin and Mitosis and Mitotic cell cycle.

The Gene study which covers Evolutionary biology that intersects with Genetic diversity, Natural selection, Clade and Homology. His research in DNA replication intersects with topics in Chromosome, Establishment of sister chromatid cohesion and Cell biology. His research integrates issues of Biophysics and Sex pheromone in his study of Cell biology.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Exploring genetic suppression interactions on a global scale (100 citations)
  • Evolutionary adaptation after crippling cell polarization follows reproducible trajectories. (47 citations)
  • A Predictive Model for Yeast Cell Polarization in Pheromone Gradients (22 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Andrew W. Murray mainly focuses on Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Gene, Genetics, Yeast and Cell biology. His Saccharomyces cerevisiae research incorporates themes from Cell division, Enzyme, Cytoskeleton, Actin and Cell polarity. Andrew W. Murray interconnects Cell cycle, Budding and DNA replication initiation in the investigation of issues within Cell division.

His work on Mutation, Phenotype, Human genome and Point mutation is typically connected to Stationary phase as part of general Genetics study, connecting several disciplines of science. The various areas that Andrew W. Murray examines in his Yeast study include Genetic diversity, Natural selection, Competition and Extinction. Andrew W. Murray has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Budding yeast, Natural variation and Metabolism.
