Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Endoplasmic reticulum, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Endoplasmic-reticulum-associated protein degradation and Calnexin. His work on Membrane protein expands to the thematically related Endoplasmic reticulum. His research brings together the fields of Genetics and Cell biology.

In his research on the topic of Biochemistry, Occludin is strongly related with Molecular biology. The concepts of his Endoplasmic-reticulum-associated protein degradation study are interwoven with issues in Mutant, Glycoprotein and Proteasome. His Calnexin study is concerned with the field of Calreticulin as a whole.

His most cited work include:

  • Nitric oxide-induced apoptosis in pancreatic β cells is mediated by the endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway (548 citations)
  • SSR alpha and associated calnexin are major calcium binding proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. (482 citations)
  • A novel ER α-mannosidase-like protein accelerates ER-associated degradation (414 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Endoplasmic reticulum, Biochemistry, Calnexin and Molecular biology. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sperm and Mutant. His work carried out in the field of Endoplasmic reticulum brings together such families of science as Chaperone and Membrane protein.

In general Biochemistry, his work in Enzyme, Isozyme, Transmembrane protein and Secretory protein is often linked to Phosphatidate phosphatase linking many areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Epidermal growth factor, Peptide sequence and Phosphorylation. His research investigates the connection with Endoplasmic-reticulum-associated protein degradation and areas like Glycoprotein which intersect with concerns in Mannose.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (51.68%)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum (32.21%)
  • Biochemistry (29.53%)

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

  • Cell biology (51.68%)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum (32.21%)
  • Golgi apparatus (8.72%)

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

Ikuo Wada spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Sperm and Gamete. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Gene, Membrane protein, Alternative splicing and Cytosol. He specializes in Endoplasmic reticulum, namely Endoplasmic-reticulum-associated protein degradation.

His Golgi apparatus research also works with subjects such as

  • Sphingomyelin synthase, which have a strong connection to Transport protein, Enzyme and Protein–protein interaction,
  • Sphingolipid which connect with Immunoprecipitation and Bimolecular fluorescence complementation. In his work, Biogenesis, Actin, Compartmentalization, Transmembrane protein and Developmental biology is strongly intertwined with Function, which is a subfield of Gamete. His Protein folding research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Unfolded protein response and Chaperone.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • ER-resident protein 46 (ERp46) triggers the mannose-trimming activity of ER degradation–enhancing α-mannosidase–like protein 3 (EDEM3) (16 citations)
  • Antibacterial effects of the artificial surface of nanoimprinted moth-eye film. (15 citations)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum proteins SDF2 and SDF2L1 act as components of the BiP chaperone cycle to prevent protein aggregation. (15 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Ikuo Wada mainly focuses on Cell biology, Endoplasmic reticulum, Bimolecular fluorescence complementation, Sphingolipid and Sphingomyelin. The various areas that he examines in his Cell biology study include alpha-Mannosidase, N-linked glycosylation, Glycoprotein, Glycan and Mannose. The Unfolded protein response research Ikuo Wada does as part of his general Endoplasmic reticulum study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Hsp70, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His research integrates issues of Sperm, Spermatozoon, Acrosome reaction, Human fertilization and Chromosomal translocation in his study of Bimolecular fluorescence complementation. His work deals with themes such as Transport protein, Enzyme, Golgi apparatus and Ceramide, Sphingomyelin synthase, which intersect with Sphingolipid. His Sphingomyelin study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Biochemistry.
