Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

DNA
Gene
Genome

His main research concerns Genetics, DNA, Recombination, Binding site and Site-specific recombination. Particularly relevant to Integrase is his body of work in DNA. Arthur Landy has included themes like Recombinase and Stereochemistry in his Integrase study.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Binding site, Bivalent is strongly linked to Plasmid. His Lambda phage research extends to Site-specific recombination, which is thematically connected. His research investigates the connection between Lysogenic cycle and topics such as Molecular biology that intersect with issues in Prophage.

His most cited work include:

Empirical estimation of protein-induced DNA bending angles: applications to λ site-specific recombination complexes (542 citations)
Dynamic, structural, and regulatory aspects of lambda site-specific recombination. (523 citations)
The integrase family of site-specific recombinases: regional similarities and global diversity. (476 citations)

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

Arthur Landy mainly focuses on DNA, Genetics, Molecular biology, Site-specific recombination and Integrase. The study incorporates disciplines such as Recombinase, Cleavage, Stereochemistry and Binding site in addition to DNA. His study in the field of Recombination, Bacteriophage, Homology and Integrases also crosses realms of Cre-Lox recombination.

The various areas that Arthur Landy examines in his Molecular biology study include Restriction fragment, Transcription, Base pair, Gene and Transfer RNA. His Site-specific recombination study also includes fields such as

Host chromosome most often made with reference to Biophysics,
Excisionase that connect with fields like Lambda. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Holliday junction, Crystallography and Protein structure.

He most often published in these fields:

DNA (57.81%)
Genetics (48.44%)
Molecular biology (40.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2017)?

Genetics (48.44%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in DNA, Holliday junction, Genetics, Integrase and Site-specific recombination. The DNA study combines topics in areas such as Recombination and Cell biology. His Genetics study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Lambda.

His Integrase study incorporates themes from Crystallography and Biophysics. His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Molecular biology and In vitro recombination. His work in Site-specific recombination tackles topics such as Host chromosome which are related to areas like Recombinant DNA.

Between 2004 and 2017, his most popular works were:

A structural basis for allosteric control of DNA recombination by λ integrase (145 citations)
Viewing single λ site‐specific recombination events from start to finish (49 citations)
DNA arms do the legwork to ensure the directionality of λ site-specific recombination (48 citations)
