His primary areas of study are Cadherin, Cell biology, Catenin, Genetics and Cancer research. His work carried out in the field of Cadherin brings together such families of science as Transcription factor, Cell junction, Molecular biology, Cell adhesion and Tight junction. His study looks at the relationship between Transcription factor and fields such as Psychological repression, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Desmoplakin, Desmosome assembly and Desmocollin. His Catenin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutation, Beta-catenin, Carcinogenesis and Exon. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Loss of heterozygosity, CDH1, Tumor suppressor gene, Breast cancer and Adenomatous polyposis coli.
Frans van Roy spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Cadherin, Genetics, Catenin and Molecular biology. His studies deal with areas such as Cell culture, Embryonic stem cell, Cellular differentiation, Immunology and Plakophilins as well as Cell biology. Frans van Roy interconnects Cell adhesion, Phosphorylation and Pathology in the investigation of issues within Cadherin.
His Catenin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Beta-catenin, Cancer research and Cell adhesion molecule. The concepts of his Cancer research study are interwoven with issues in Carcinogenesis, Cancer, Tumor suppressor gene and Mutation. His study in Zinc finger extends to Molecular biology with its themes.
Frans van Roy mostly deals with Cell biology, Cadherin, Catenin, Cell junction and Adherens junction. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Embryonic stem cell, Cell, Cell adhesion and Cellular differentiation. His primary area of study in Cadherin is in the field of Protocadherin.
Frans van Roy specializes in Catenin, namely Alpha catenin. His Cell junction study also includes
His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Genetics, Plakoglobin, Molecular evolution and Evolutionary biology. His Cell biology study focuses on Catenin in particular. He focuses mostly in the field of Plakoglobin, narrowing it down to topics relating to Protocadherin and, in certain cases, Armadillo and Protein family.
His research integrates issues of Most recent common ancestor, Phylogenetics, Armadillo repeats, BCL10 and Protein superfamily in his study of Evolutionary biology. He interconnects Lymnaea stagnalis, Xenopus, Cancer research and Wnt signaling pathway in the investigation of issues within Mutation. His work on CDH1 as part of general Cadherin study is frequently linked to Structure and function, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
