Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virology, Ebola virus, Viral replication, Interferon and Taxonomy. Gaya K. Amarasinghe regularly ties together related areas like Antibody in his Virology studies. His Ebola virus research includes elements of Innate immune system, Pattern recognition receptor, Polymerase and Mutant.

The concepts of his Viral replication study are interwoven with issues in Marburg virus disease, Neutralizing antibody and Biosafety level. As a member of one scientific family, Gaya K. Amarasinghe mostly works in the field of Interferon, focusing on RNA-binding protein and, on occasion, DEAD Box Protein 58. The Taxonomy study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics and Genus.

His most cited work include:

  • Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: update 2016 (307 citations)
  • NMR structure of the HIV-1 nucleocapsid protein bound to stem-loop SL2 of the psi-RNA packaging signal. Implications for genome recognition. (291 citations)
  • Electrophilic properties of itaconate and derivatives regulate the IκBζ–ATF3 inflammatory axis (186 citations)

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

Virology, Ebola virus, RNA, Viral replication and Cell biology are his primary areas of study. His Virology research includes themes of Innate immune system and Polymerase. His Ebola virus research incorporates elements of Nucleoprotein, RNA-binding protein and Viral protein.

Gaya K. Amarasinghe interconnects Genome and Stereochemistry in the investigation of issues within RNA. The various areas that Gaya K. Amarasinghe examines in his Viral replication study include Marburg virus disease, RNA virus, Mutant and Untranslated region. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Receptor, KEAP1 and Gene expression.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (51.04%)

  • RNA (22.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Virology (51.04%)
  • Ebola virus (31.25%)
  • Antibody (8.33%)

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

Gaya K. Amarasinghe mainly focuses on Virology, Ebola virus, Antibody, RNA and Cell biology. His Virology study incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology and Taxonomy. The Ebola virus study combines topics in areas such as Nucleoprotein and Genome.

His Nucleoprotein research integrates issues from Viral hemorrhagic fever and Viral replication. His RNA research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Druggability, Monoclonal antibody, Innate immune system and Viral protein. His Phosphorylation study in the realm of Cell biology connects with subjects such as Inhibitory postsynaptic potential.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Neutralizing Antibody and Soluble ACE2 Inhibition of a Replication-Competent VSV-SARS-CoV-2 and a Clinical Isolate of SARS-CoV-2 (114 citations)
  • Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: update 2019. (87 citations)
  • Taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales: second update 2018 (45 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Amino acid

Gaya K. Amarasinghe focuses on Virology, Evolutionary biology, Taxonomy, Order Mononegavirales and Taxon. Many of his studies on Virology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Genome. His research in Genome intersects with topics in Marburgvirus, Ebolavirus and Virulence.

In his articles, Gaya K. Amarasinghe combines various disciplines, including Evolutionary biology and Mononegavirales. Combining a variety of fields, including Taxon, Viral genetics, Species complex, Bunyavirales, Phylum and Genus, are what the author presents in his essays.
