Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Howard Holtzer is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Actin
  • Enzyme

Cell biology and Neuroscience are two areas of study in which Howard Holtzer engages in interdisciplinary work. In his papers, he integrates diverse fields, such as Neuroscience and Cell biology. Myogenesis is frequently linked to In vitro in his study. As part of his studies on In vitro, Howard Holtzer often connects relevant areas like Myogenesis. Howard Holtzer conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Myocyte and Myofibril through his research. In his research, Howard Holtzer performs multidisciplinary study on Myofibril and Myocyte. In his research, Howard Holtzer performs multidisciplinary study on Genetics and Computational biology. He undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Computational biology and Genetics through his research. Many of his studies on Biochemistry involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Colcemid.

His most cited work include:

  • DNA synthesis and myogenesis (540 citations)
  • MITOSIS AND INTERMEDIATE-SIZED FILAMENTS IN DEVELOPING SKELETAL MUSCLE (485 citations)
  • MyoD converts primary dermal fibroblasts, chondroblasts, smooth muscle, and retinal pigmented epithelial cells into striated mononucleated myoblasts and multinucleated myotubes. (354 citations)

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

His study brings together the fields of Embryo and Cell biology. The study of Biochemistry is intertwined with the study of In vitro in a number of ways. Howard Holtzer conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Myocyte and Myosin through his works. Howard Holtzer integrates many fields in his works, including Myosin and Actin. In his works, Howard Holtzer undertakes multidisciplinary study on Actin and Myocyte. His research ties Cytochalasin and Cell together. He integrates Cytochalasin with Cytochalasin B in his research. Howard Holtzer integrates many fields, such as Cytochalasin B and Cytoskeleton, in his works. While working on this project, Howard Holtzer studies both Cytoskeleton and Cell.

Howard Holtzer most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (83.91%)
  • Biochemistry (66.67%)
  • Myocyte (40.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1990-2000)?

  • Cell biology (100.00%)
  • Actin (87.50%)
  • Biochemistry (87.50%)

In recent works Howard Holtzer was focusing on the following fields of study:

As part of his studies on Cell biology, Howard Holtzer often connects relevant areas like Myosin light-chain kinase. Howard Holtzer integrates several fields in his works, including Myosin light-chain kinase and Myosin. Howard Holtzer performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Myosin and Actin via his papers. Howard Holtzer brings together Actin and Nebulin to produce work in his papers. Howard Holtzer combines Nebulin and Tropomyosin in his studies. While working on this project, he studies both Tropomyosin and Sarcomere. He carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Sarcomere and Myogenesis. His research on Myogenesis often connects related areas such as Cell biology. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Binding site.

Between 1990 and 2000, his most popular works were:

  • Independent Assembly of 1.6 .MU.m Long Bipolar MHC Filaments and I-Z-I Bodies. (116 citations)
  • The vinculin/sarcomeric-alpha-actinin/alpha-actin nexus in cultured cardiac myocytes (110 citations)
  • A sarcomeric alpha-actinin truncated at the carboxyl end induces the breakdown of stress fibers in PtK2 cells and the formation of nemaline-like bodies and breakdown of myofibrils in myotubes. (55 citations)
