Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, RNA, Transfer RNA, Mass spectrometry and Chromatography. His works in Hyperthermophile, Dihydrouridine, Nucleoside, RNase P and Pseudouridine are all subjects of inquiry into Biochemistry. James A. McCloskey has researched RNA in several fields, including Ribosomal RNA, Nucleic acid and Nucleotide.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Nucleic acid, Deamination is strongly linked to Adenosine. His Transfer RNA research focuses on Ribosome and how it relates to Methanococcus, Methanococcus maripaludis, Wybutosine and Methanococcales. He focuses mostly in the field of Mass spectrometry, narrowing it down to topics relating to Oligonucleotide and, in certain cases, Nucleic acid sequence and Ribonuclease T1.

His most cited work include:

  • Summary: the modified nucleosides of RNA (570 citations)
  • The RNA modification database, RNAMDB: 2011 update (527 citations)
  • The RNA Modification Database: 1999 update (373 citations)

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

James A. McCloskey spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Mass spectrometry, Transfer RNA, Stereochemistry and Chromatography. His study in Biochemistry concentrates on RNA, Nucleoside, Ribosomal RNA, Escherichia coli and Nucleotide. James A. McCloskey has included themes like Hyperthermophile, Molecular mass and Ribose in his RNA study.

His studies deal with areas such as Nucleic acid, Organic chemistry and Oligonucleotide as well as Mass spectrometry. His studies in Transfer RNA integrate themes in fields like Thermophile and Cytidine. His Stereochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Guanosine and Adenosine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (39.13%)
  • Mass spectrometry (36.52%)
  • Transfer RNA (26.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2011)?

  • Biochemistry (39.13%)
  • RNA (21.74%)
  • Transfer RNA (26.96%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, RNA, Transfer RNA, Oligonucleotide and Mass spectrometry. His RNA study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hyperthermophile, Archaea, Ribosomal RNA and Escherichia coli. The Transfer RNA study combines topics in areas such as Amino acid and Nucleoside.

His research in Oligonucleotide intersects with topics in RNase P and Electrospray ionization. His Mass spectrometry study results in a more complete grasp of Chromatography. The various areas that James A. McCloskey examines in his Tandem mass spectrometry study include Mass spectrum and Stereochemistry, Pyrimidine.

Between 1996 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • The RNA modification database, RNAMDB: 2011 update (527 citations)
  • The RNA Modification Database: 1999 update (373 citations)
  • An aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that specifically activates pyrrolysine (156 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Gene

James A. McCloskey mostly deals with Biochemistry, RNA, Transfer RNA, Hyperthermophile and Oligonucleotide. His research on Biochemistry focuses in particular on 23S ribosomal RNA. His work on Modified nucleosides as part of general RNA study is frequently linked to Database and Index, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His Transfer RNA study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Methanococcus maripaludis. His Oligonucleotide research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry, Trans-translation, Mass spectrum, Mass spectrometry and Nucleic acid sequence. His Mass spectrometry study is associated with Chromatography.
