  • Biophysics (13.37%)
  • Ribosome (9.12%)
  • RNA (33.43%)

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

Ignacio Tinoco focuses on Biophysics, Ribosome, RNA, Optical tweezers and Translation. His Biophysics research integrates issues from Chromosomal translocation, Folding, Biochemistry and Nucleotide, Pseudoknot. Ignacio Tinoco has included themes like Messenger RNA, Transfer RNA and Protein biosynthesis in his Ribosome study.

His work deals with themes such as Crystallography, Base pair, Molecule and Kinetics, which intersect with RNA. His research investigates the connection with Base pair and areas like Protein secondary structure which intersect with concerns in Distribution function, Sequence and Genetic translation. His Optical tweezers research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biological system and Single-molecule experiment.

Between 2005 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Following translation by single ribosomes one codon at a time (397 citations)
  • RNA translocation and unwinding mechanism of HCV NS3 helicase and its coordination by ATP (301 citations)
  • The ribosome uses two active mechanisms to unwind messenger RNA during translation (229 citations)

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

  • DNA
  • Quantum mechanics
  • Gene

His primary areas of study are RNA, Biophysics, Translation, Ribosome and Helicase. The study incorporates disciplines such as Base pair, DNA, Crystallography and Kinetics in addition to RNA. Ignacio Tinoco interconnects Chemical physics, Molecule, Gibbs free energy and Reaction mechanism in the investigation of issues within Crystallography.

The concepts of his Biophysics study are interwoven with issues in Folding, RNA Stability, Translational frameshift and Pseudoknot. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Ribosome, focusing on Protein biosynthesis and, on occasion, Protein folding and Translocon. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Protein secondary structure under Messenger RNA, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Genetic translation.
