Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Gene, Genome, Biochemistry and Nuclear gene. He incorporates Genetics and Biological sciences in his research. His study in the field of Codon usage bias, RNA, Translation and GroEL also crosses realms of Heterologous expression.

He has included themes like Ribosomal RNA and Function in his RNA study. His Genome study combines topics in areas such as Proteome and Mitochondrial DNA. His work in Biochemistry covers topics such as Molecular biology which are related to areas like Amino acid, Ribosomal protein, Tryptophan and Cysteine.

His most cited work include:

  • The genome sequence of Rickettsia prowazekii and the origin of mitochondria (1435 citations)
  • Co-variation of tRNA abundance and codon usage in Escherichia coli at different growth rates. (651 citations)
  • Codon usage determines translation rate in Escherichia coli (494 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Ribosome, Biochemistry, Escherichia coli and Translation. In general Genetics, his work in Genome, Gene, Phylogenetics and Codon usage bias is often linked to Rickettsia prowazekii linking many areas of study. His research in Genome intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology, Proteome and Archaea.

Charles G. Kurland has researched Ribosome in several fields, including Ribosomal RNA, Transfer RNA, Mutant and Protein biosynthesis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microbiology and Bacteria. His Translation research integrates issues from Peptide bond, GTP' and Cell biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (42.86%)
  • Ribosome (39.68%)
  • Biochemistry (38.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2018)?

  • Genetics (42.86%)
  • Genome (24.60%)
  • Evolutionary biology (8.73%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Genome, Evolutionary biology, Last universal ancestor and Phylogenetics. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Computational biology and Genetics. Genome is a subfield of Gene that Charles G. Kurland studies.

His work on Horizontal gene transfer, Signal recognition particle RNA, Ribosome and RNA is typically connected to Spliceosome as part of general Gene study, connecting several disciplines of science. In his study, Phylogenomics, Tree of life and Bioinformatics is inextricably linked to Genome evolution, which falls within the broad field of Last universal ancestor. His studies deal with areas such as Proteomics and Comparative genomics, Genomics as well as Archaea.

Between 2005 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Genomics and the irreducible nature of eukaryote cells. (187 citations)
  • Compensatory gene amplification restores fitness after inter-species gene replacements (73 citations)
  • Reductive evolution of proteomes and protein structures (62 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Charles G. Kurland mainly focuses on Genome, Genetics, Computational biology, Archaea and Proteome. To a larger extent, he studies Gene with the aim of understanding Genome. In general Gene study, his work on Regulation of gene expression, Gene dosage, Gene cluster and Gene duplication often relates to the realm of Ancestor, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His study in Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics and Maximum parsimony is done as part of Genetics. His Computational biology research includes elements of Coding region, Protein domain, Protein structure and Protein family. The study incorporates disciplines such as Evolution of cells, Proteomics, Comparative genomics, Genomics and Eukaryote in addition to Archaea.
