Aseem Z. Ansari focuses on RNA polymerase II, Transcription factor II D, Genetics, DNA and RNA polymerase II holoenzyme. Aseem Z. Ansari focuses mostly in the field of Transcription factor II D, narrowing it down to topics relating to Protein subunit and, in certain cases, DNA-binding protein. His study in Genetics concentrates on Promoter and Transcription.

His DNA research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transcription factor, Gene, Eukaryotic transcription and Cell biology. His Transcription factor study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Polymerase and Activator. The RNA polymerase II holoenzyme study combines topics in areas such as Transcription factor II B, Transcription factor II F and Transcription factor II E.

His most cited work include:

  • A library of yeast transcription factor motifs reveals a widespread function for Rsc3 in targeting nucleosome exclusion at promoters. (388 citations)
  • Genome-wide distribution of yeast RNA polymerase II and its control by Sen1 helicase. (277 citations)
  • A unified nomenclature for protein subunits of mediator complexes linking transcriptional regulators to RNA polymerase II. (240 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, DNA, Computational biology, Transcription and Transcription factor. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular biology, DNA-binding protein, Small molecule and Binding site. His Computational biology study also includes fields such as

  • Genome that intertwine with fields like DNA sequencing and Chromatin,
  • Gene regulatory network which connect with Cell fate determination.

The study incorporates disciplines such as RNA polymerase II and Kinase, Phosphorylation, Cell biology in addition to Transcription. In RNA polymerase II, Aseem Z. Ansari works on issues like Transcription factor II D, which are connected to RNA polymerase II holoenzyme, Protein subunit and RNA polymerase I.
