Dónal O'Carroll mainly investigates Genetics, Histone methyltransferase, Histone code, Histone H2A and EZH2.
His study on microRNA, Embryonic stem cell and Germ cell is often connected to Epiblast as part of broader study in Genetics.
Dónal O'Carroll combines subjects such as Cellular differentiation, Piwi-interacting RNA, Dicer and Cell biology with his study of microRNA.
His Histone methyltransferase research includes elements of Enhancer, Gene targeting, Histone deacetylase complex and SUZ12.
His research investigates the connection with Histone H2A and areas like Histone H3 which intersect with concerns in Histone H1.
His research in EZH2 intersects with topics in Epigenetics of physical exercise, Homeotic selector gene and Heterochromatin, Constitutive heterochromatin, Heterochromatin protein 1.
His most cited work include:
- Methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 creates a binding site for HP1 proteins. (2353 citations)
