Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Donald L. Court mostly deals with Genetics, Recombineering, DNA, Homologous recombination and Bacterial artificial chromosome. His work in Prophage, Genome, Gene, Bacteriophage and Genetic recombination are all subfields of Genetics research. His Recombineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of FLP-FRT recombination and Circular bacterial chromosome.

Donald L. Court interconnects Molecular biology and RNA polymerase, Transcription antitermination in the investigation of issues within DNA. The concepts of his Bacterial artificial chromosome study are interwoven with issues in Chromosome engineering, Restriction enzyme and Selectable marker. His Chromosome engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in genomic DNA and Escherichia coli.

His most cited work include:

  • Regulatory Sequences Involved in the Promotion and Termination of RNA Transcription (1877 citations)
  • An efficient recombination system for chromosome engineering in Escherichia coli (1545 citations)
  • Ingestion of bacterially expressed dsRNAs can produce specific and potent genetic interference in Caenorhabditis elegans (1509 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Molecular biology, Escherichia coli, Gene and Bacteriophage. Recombineering, DNA, Homologous recombination, RNA and Transcription are subfields of Genetics in which his conducts study. His Recombineering research integrates issues from Functional genomics, FLP-FRT recombination, Circular bacterial chromosome and Bacterial artificial chromosome.

In his research on the topic of Molecular biology, Mutation, Microbiology and C-terminus is strongly related with Mutant. Cell cycle and Nucleoid is closely connected to Cell division in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Escherichia coli. His biological study deals with issues like Lytic cycle, which deal with fields such as Repressor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (59.50%)
  • Molecular biology (34.71%)
  • Escherichia coli (26.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Genetics (59.50%)
  • Cell biology (22.31%)
  • Escherichia coli (26.45%)

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

Donald L. Court mainly focuses on Genetics, Cell biology, Escherichia coli, Transcription and RNA. His research in Recombineering, RNA polymerase and DNA are components of Genetics. His Recombineering study incorporates themes from Oligonucleotide and Sequence.

His Cell biology research includes elements of Lysogen, Lytic cycle, Prophage and DNA replication. The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology and Mutant in addition to Escherichia coli. His study with Transcription involves better knowledge in Gene.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • RNase III: Genetics and Function; Structure and Mechanism. (91 citations)
  • Visualizing translocation dynamics and nascent transcript errors in paused RNA polymerases in vivo (61 citations)
  • The Kil peptide of bacteriophage λ blocks Escherichia coli cytokinesis via ZipA-dependent inhibition of FtsZ assembly. (49 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Donald L. Court mainly investigates Genetics, Ribosome, RNA polymerase, Cell biology and RNA. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Antitermination, Ribosomal RNA and RRNA Operon. He combines subjects such as Bacteriophage, Escherichia coli, Cytokinesis, DNA and Transcription with his study of Cell biology.

His Escherichia coli study combines topics in areas such as Protein subunit, Mutant, Cell division and Cytoskeleton. His research in DNA intersects with topics in Phenotype, In vitro, Cofactor and Transcription factor. His Transcription study is associated with Gene.
