Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Angiogenin, Enzyme, Reagent and Peptide sequence. His Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Renin–angiotensin system and Angiotensin-converting enzyme. His Angiogenin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell, Cell culture, Chorioallantoic membrane, Ribonuclease and Molecular biology.

His studies in Enzyme integrate themes in fields like RNA, Uridine and Nucleotide. His studies deal with areas such as Tetranitromethane, Tyrosine, Nitration and Chemical modification as well as Reagent. His research integrates issues of Complementary DNA and Biological activity in his study of Peptide sequence.

His most cited work include:

  • Isolation and characterization of angiogenin, an angiogenic protein from human carcinoma cells (793 citations)
  • Tetranitromethane. A reagent for the nitration of tyrosyl residues in proteins. (571 citations)
  • A continuous spectrophotometric assay for angiotensin converting enzyme (361 citations)

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

James F. Riordan focuses on Biochemistry, Enzyme, Angiogenin, Stereochemistry and Angiotensin-converting enzyme. Active site, Binding site, Tyrosine, Peptide sequence and Esterase are subfields of Biochemistry in which his conducts study. He has included themes like Zinc, Arginine, Peptide and Chloride in his Enzyme study.

His Angiogenin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular biology, RNase P, Ribonuclease and Cell biology. His Stereochemistry research integrates issues from Carboxypeptidase A, Carboxypeptidase, Protein structure and Enzyme kinetics. In his research, Angiotensin II is intimately related to Renin–angiotensin system, which falls under the overarching field of Angiotensin-converting enzyme.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (51.48%)
  • Enzyme (36.09%)
  • Angiogenin (23.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1992-2016)?

  • Angiogenin (23.67%)
  • Biochemistry (51.48%)
  • Molecular biology (15.98%)

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

James F. Riordan spends much of his time researching Angiogenin, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Enzyme and Angiogenesis. His study in Angiogenin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell, Peptide sequence, Cell biology, Conformational change and Binding site. His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell culture, Cell growth, Nucleolus, Endocytosis and Cell nucleus.

The various areas that James F. Riordan examines in his Enzyme study include RNA, Angiotensin-converting enzyme and Cyanogen bromide. His Angiotensin-converting enzyme study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Renin–angiotensin system, Pharmacology and Metabolism. His Angiogenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endothelial stem cell, Receptor and Ribonuclease.

Between 1992 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Nuclear translocation of angiogenin in proliferating endothelial cells is essential to its angiogenic activity. (231 citations)
  • ACE revisited: A new target for structure-based drug design (226 citations)
  • Angiotensin-I-converting enzyme and its relatives (168 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

James F. Riordan mainly investigates Angiogenin, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Angiogenesis and Cell biology. His research in Angiogenin intersects with topics in Cell, Chorioallantoic membrane, Mutant, Peptide sequence and Biological activity. His Peptide sequence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nuclear localization sequence, Ribonuclease and Mechanism of action.

His Molecular biology research includes themes of Cell culture, Nucleolus and Monoclonal antibody. His study in Binding site, Pancreatic ribonuclease, Bradykinin and Enzyme falls under the purview of Biochemistry. His Angiogenesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Endothelial stem cell and Cell growth.
