2014 - Fellow of the American Society of Plant Biologists

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Eukaryote

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Profilin, Arp2/3 complex, Actin remodeling and MDia1. His Cell biology research includes elements of Actin-binding protein, Actin cytoskeleton, Cytoskeleton and Mutant. He works mostly in the field of Actin-binding protein, limiting it down to topics relating to Actin filament polymerization and, in certain cases, Actin nucleation, as a part of the same area of interest.

His research in Actin cytoskeleton tackles topics such as Filamentous actin which are related to areas like Pollen tube tip and Phalloidin. Christopher J. Staiger has included themes like Complementary DNA, Open reading frame, Peptide sequence and Gene family in his Profilin study. His MDia1 study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Treadmilling and Actin remodeling of neurons.

His most cited work include:

  • Inactivation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase Mps1 from the rice blast fungus prevents penetration of host cells but allows activation of plant defense responses (359 citations)
  • Latrunculin B Has Different Effects on Pollen Germination and Tube Growth (356 citations)
  • SIGNALING TO THE ACTIN CYTOSKELETON IN PLANTS (270 citations)

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

Cell biology, Actin remodeling, Actin, Actin cytoskeleton and Profilin are his primary areas of study. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Actin-binding protein, Cytoskeleton, Microfilament, Arabidopsis and Arp2/3 complex. His Actin remodeling study frequently links to related topics such as MDia1.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytoplasm, Protein filament, Mutant, Plant cell and Innate immune system. The various areas that he examines in his Actin cytoskeleton study include Filamentous actin, Secretion, Pollen tube tip, Programmed cell death and Effector. His work carried out in the field of Profilin brings together such families of science as Paracytophagy and Signal transduction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (83.87%)
  • Actin remodeling (50.00%)
  • Actin (49.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Cell biology (83.87%)
  • Arabidopsis (16.94%)
  • Actin cytoskeleton (48.39%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Arabidopsis, Actin cytoskeleton, Actin and Cytoskeleton. His biological study focuses on Myosin. Specifically, his work in Actin cytoskeleton is concerned with the study of Actin remodeling.

The study incorporates disciplines such as MDia1, Host cytoskeleton and Profilin in addition to Actin remodeling. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Actin, Green fluorescent protein, Nicotiana benthamiana, Plant cell, Organelle and Cell shape is strongly linked to Protein filament. His Cytoskeleton research incorporates themes from Peroxisome, Reactive oxygen species and Endoplasmic reticulum.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Actin Cytoskeleton: Functional Arrays for Cytoplasmic Organization and Cell Shape Control. (31 citations)
  • Neutrophil-specific knockout demonstrates a role for mitochondria in regulating neutrophil motility in zebrafish. (29 citations)
  • Capping Protein Modulates Actin Remodeling in Response to Reactive Oxygen Species during Plant Innate Immunity. (24 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Eukaryote

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Actin cytoskeleton, Actin remodeling, Actin and Profilin. His research integrates issues of Secretion, Host cytoskeleton and Arabidopsis in his study of Cell biology. His studies deal with areas such as MDia1, Paracytophagy and Arp2/3 complex as well as Host cytoskeleton.

His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Innate immune system and Signal transduction. His Cytoplasm research integrates issues from Cell shape, Protein filament and Organelle. Christopher J. Staiger interconnects Exocytosis, Cell membrane, Cell cortex, Endocytosis and Myosin in the investigation of issues within Vesicle tethering.
