Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Secretion, Type VI secretion system, Biochemistry, Cell biology and Effector. His work deals with themes such as Transport protein and Biogenesis, which intersect with Secretion. His research in Type VI secretion system intersects with topics in Bacteriophage, Cell envelope, Function and Microbiology.

His study on Inner membrane, Bacterial outer membrane, Bacterial conjugation and DNA is often connected to Transfer DNA as part of broader study in Biochemistry. In his study, Peptidoglycan and Fungal protein is inextricably linked to Cell membrane, which falls within the broad field of Cell biology. His Effector research integrates issues from Bacteria, Cell and Virulence.

His most cited work include:

  • The versatile bacterial type IV secretion systems (548 citations)
  • BIOGENESIS, ARCHITECTURE, AND FUNCTION OF BACTERIAL TYPE IV SECRETION SYSTEMS (542 citations)
  • Definition of a Bacterial Type IV Secretion Pathway for a DNA Substrate (306 citations)

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

Eric Cascales focuses on Secretion, Type VI secretion system, Cell biology, Biochemistry and Bacterial outer membrane. The Secretion study combines topics in areas such as Bacteriophage, Protein subunit, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Microbiology. His Type VI secretion system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Transport protein, Cytoplasm, Biophysics, Cell envelope and Effector.

His Effector study also includes fields such as

  • Bacteria that connect with fields like Lysis,
  • Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli which intersects with area such as Gene cluster. In his research, Mutation is intimately related to Protein structure, which falls under the overarching field of Cell biology. His Bacterial outer membrane study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Helix, Transmembrane domain and Inner membrane.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Secretion (45.69%)
  • Type VI secretion system (39.66%)
  • Cell biology (39.66%)

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

  • Secretion (45.69%)
  • Type VI secretion system (39.66%)
  • Cell biology (39.66%)

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

Secretion, Type VI secretion system, Cell biology, Biophysics and Effector are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Eric Cascales examines in his Secretion study include Peptidoglycan, Protein subunit, Membrane protein and Bacterial cell structure. His Type VI secretion system research integrates issues from Transport protein, Cytoplasm, Bacteriocin, Cell envelope and Pathogenic bacteria.

His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Protein structure, Biogenesis, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Inner membrane. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Myoviridae and Membrane. His Effector research incorporates elements of Cell and Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Antibacterial Weapons: Targeted Destruction in the Microbiota (47 citations)
  • Domestication of a housekeeping transglycosylase for assembly of a Type VI secretion system (42 citations)
  • Towards a complete structural deciphering of Type VI secretion system. (40 citations)
