Barbara Sollner-Webb

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• DNA
• Gene
• RNA

Barbara Sollner-Webb spends much of her time researching Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Genetics, RNA editing and Cell biology. Specifically, her work in Biochemistry is concerned with the study of DNA. Her research integrates issues of Chromatin and Gene in her study of Molecular biology.

Her Transfection study, which is part of a larger body of work in Gene, is frequently linked to Yield, Dimethyl sulfoxide and Shock, bridging the gap between disciplines. In her research on the topic of RNA editing, Exonuclease is strongly related with RNA ligase. Her Cell biology research includes elements of Ribosomal RNA, External transcribed spacer and RRNA processing.

Her most cited work include:

• High level transient expression of a chloramphenicol acetyl transferase gene by DEAE-dextran mediated DNA transfection coupled with a dimethyl sulfoxide or glycerol shock treatment (673 citations)
• The U3 small nucleolar ribonucleoprotein functions in the first step of preribosomal RNA processing (340 citations)
• The organization of histones and DNA in chromatin: Evidence for an arginine-rich histone kernel (275 citations)

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

Barbara Sollner-Webb mainly focuses on Molecular biology, RNA editing, RNA, Cell biology and Biochemistry. Her Molecular biology study incorporates themes from RNA polymerase I, Transcription, Gene and DNA. Her RNA editing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of RNA ligase, DNA ligase and Endonuclease.

RNA is a subfield of Genetics that she explores. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ribonucleoprotein, snRNP, Micrococcal nuclease and Conserved sequence in addition to Cell biology. A large part of her Biochemistry studies is devoted to Cleavage.

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

Barbara Sollner-Webb focuses on RNA editing, RNA, Biochemistry, DNA ligase and Genetics. Barbara Sollner-Webb has included themes like Cleavage, Duplex, Trypanosoma brucei, RNA interference and Cell biology in her RNA editing study. Her Cleavage research focuses on Nucleotide and how it connects with Nuclease and DNA.

Her study looks at the intersection of Cell biology and topics like Messenger RNA with Ribonucleoprotein, Endoribonucleases and Sequence analysis. As part of her studies on RNA, Barbara Sollner-Webb often connects relevant subjects like Molecular biology. Her work in the fields of Genetics, such as Base pair, Ribonuclease and Cleave, overlaps with other areas such as Guide RNA.

Between 1997 and 2016, her most popular works were:

• The two RNA ligases of the Trypanosoma brucei RNA editing complex: Cloning the essential band IV gene and identifying the band V gene (89 citations)
• Roles for ligases in the RNA editing complex of Trypanosoma brucei: band IV is needed for U-deletion and RNA repair. (72 citations)
• T. brucei RNA Editing: Adenosine Nucleotides Inversely Affect U-Deletion and U-Insertion Reactions at mRNA Cleavage (67 citations)

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

• Gene
• DNA
• RNA

Barbara Sollner-Webb mainly investigates RNA editing, RNA, Biochemistry, RNA ligase and RNA Ligase. Her study with RNA editing involves better knowledge in Genetics. She regularly ties together related areas like Cell biology in her Genetics studies.

Her studies deal with areas such as Polynucleotide Ligases, RNA repair, Trypanosoma brucei and Transfection as well as RNA ligase. Her study in Cleavage is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Adenosine, MRNA cleavage, Nucleotide, Cleavage factor and Allosteric regulation. Her RNA-dependent RNA polymerase research includes themes of RNA silencing and Intron.
