Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Cell cycle, Cyclin-dependent kinase 1, Cytoskeleton and Mitosis. Daniel J. Lew focuses mostly in the field of Cell biology, narrowing it down to matters related to Septin and, in some cases, Septin complex. His Cell cycle research is included under the broader classification of Gene.

Daniel J. Lew interconnects Cyclin-dependent kinase 6, Phosphorylation cascade and Polo-like kinase in the investigation of issues within Cyclin-dependent kinase 1. His Cytoskeleton research incorporates elements of Morphogenesis, Depolarization, Phosphorylation, Regulator and Kinase. His Mitosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Polarisome and Kinase activity.

His most cited work include:

  • Isolation of three novel human cyclins by rescue of G1 cyclin (cln) function in yeast (719 citations)
  • Morphogenesis in the yeast cell cycle: regulation by Cdc28 and cyclins. (450 citations)
  • Involvement of an Actomyosin Contractile Ring in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cytokinesis (379 citations)

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

Cell biology, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Cell polarity, Cell cycle and CDC42 are his primary areas of study. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Cell cycle checkpoint, Actin cytoskeleton, Cytoskeleton and Septin. His studies in Septin integrate themes in fields like Septin ring, Cyclin-dependent kinase, Actin and Septin cytoskeleton.

His study in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pheromone, Mutant, Cell division and DNA replication. His Cell polarity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Guanine nucleotide exchange factor, GTPase, Biophysics and Cdc42 GTP-Binding Protein. His research in Cell cycle intersects with topics in Kinase and Yeast.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (70.00%)
  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae (35.38%)
  • Cell polarity (29.23%)

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

  • Cell polarity (29.23%)
  • Polarity (15.38%)
  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae (35.38%)

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

Daniel J. Lew mainly investigates Cell polarity, Polarity, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Cell biology and CDC42. His studies deal with areas such as Budding, GTPase and Yeast as well as Cell polarity. His Saccharomyces cerevisiae study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pheromone and Mating.

Daniel J. Lew is interested in Mitosis, which is a field of Cell biology. His CDC42 study incorporates themes from Cell cycle and Actin cytoskeleton. His Septin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Yeast cell cycle, Cell shape and Cell Cycle Protein.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cell Polarity in Yeast. (117 citations)
  • Principles that govern competition or co-existence in Rho-GTPase driven polarization. (38 citations)
  • Cell-cycle control of cell polarity in yeast. (24 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Cell polarity, Cell cycle, CDC42 and Polarity. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Cytoskeleton and Septin. His work deals with themes such as Yeast cell cycle, Cell shape and Cell Cycle Protein, which intersect with Septin.

His research integrates issues of Budding, Cell division and Yeast in his study of Cell cycle. Many of his research projects under Cell division are closely connected to Hortaea werneckii and Black yeast with Hortaea werneckii and Black yeast, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Cyclin-dependent kinase study combines topics in areas such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Actin.
