Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Molecular biology, Recombination-activating gene, Gene rearrangement, Gene and VJ recombination are his primary areas of study. David G. Schatz has included themes like Gene expression, Immunoglobulin heavy chain, T cell, T-cell receptor and Regulation of gene expression in his Molecular biology study. His Recombination-activating gene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both FLP-FRT recombination, RAG2 and Genome instability.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cleavage and Site-specific recombination. His work carried out in the field of Gene rearrangement brings together such families of science as Recombinase, Recombinase activity and Cellular differentiation. As a part of the same scientific family, David G. Schatz mostly works in the field of VJ recombination, focusing on DNA and, on occasion, Cell biology and Genetic recombination.

His most cited work include:

  • RAG-1 and RAG-2, adjacent genes that synergistically activate V(D)J recombination. (1202 citations)
  • The V(D)J Recombination Activating Gene, RAG-1 (955 citations)
  • Identifying differences in mRNA expression by representational difference analysis of cDNA (873 citations)

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

David G. Schatz spends much of his time researching Molecular biology, Genetics, Recombination-activating gene, Gene and VJ recombination. He combines subjects such as Gene rearrangement, T cell, T-cell receptor, Activation-induced deaminase and B cell with his study of Molecular biology. His studies in Recombination-activating gene integrate themes in fields like Transposable element, Transposase, RAG2, Cell biology and Severe combined immunodeficiency.

His RAG2 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Site-specific recombination and Active site. His studies examine the connections between Gene and genetics, as well as such issues in Somatic hypermutation, with regards to Cytidine deaminase, Germinal center, Mutation, Gene conversion and RNA polymerase II. His study in VJ recombination is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Recombinase, FLP-FRT recombination, Recombination signal sequences and DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (57.02%)
  • Genetics (42.13%)
  • Recombination-activating gene (44.68%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • VJ recombination (39.57%)
  • Recombination-activating gene (44.68%)
  • Genetics (42.13%)

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

David G. Schatz focuses on VJ recombination, Recombination-activating gene, Genetics, Gene and DNA. His VJ recombination research incorporates elements of Recombination signal sequences, Biophysics, Recombinase, Molecular biology and RAG2. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in T cell, DNA damage and Somatic cell.

His RAG2 study deals with Active site intersecting with Protein domain. His Recombination-activating gene study combines topics in areas such as Genome, Transposable element and Severe combined immunodeficiency. The various areas that he examines in his DNA study include Cleavage, RNA polymerase II holoenzyme, Recombination and DNA-binding protein.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genomic landscape of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (214 citations)
  • Genomic landscape of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (214 citations)
  • The RAG recombinase dictates functional heterogeneity and cellular fitness in natural killer cells. (109 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His primary areas of investigation include VJ recombination, Genetics, Recombination-activating gene, Gene and Chromatin. His study in DNA, Recombination signal sequences and Recombinase falls within the category of Genetics. His work carried out in the field of DNA brings together such families of science as Recombination and DNA-binding protein.

His Recombination-activating gene study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genome, Transposable element and RAG2. The concepts of his Gene study are interwoven with issues in Lesion, Immunology, Cytokine, DNA damage and Molecular biology. David G. Schatz incorporates Molecular biology and Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma in his research.
