1976 - Fellow of John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Imaginal disc, Cell biology, Genetics, Drosophila melanogaster and Morphogenesis. The study incorporates disciplines such as RNA, Transcription and In vivo in addition to Imaginal disc. James W. Fristrom has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Integrin and Cytoskeleton, Microfilament.

His Drosophila melanogaster research incorporates themes from Evagination and Ecdysone. The Morphogenesis study combines topics in areas such as Pupa, Instar, Botany, Metamorphosis and Larva. His study looks at the relationship between Mutant and topics such as Mutation, which overlap with Gene interaction and Drosophilidae.

His most cited work include:

  • Talin Is Essential for Integrin Function in Drosophila (233 citations)
  • Gene within a gene: nested Drosophila genes encode unrelated proteins on opposite DNA strands. (201 citations)
  • Interactions and developmental effects of mutations in the Broad-Complex of Drosophila melanogaster. (196 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Drosophila melanogaster, Imaginal disc, Cell biology, Genetics and Ecdysone. James W. Fristrom interconnects Instar, Larva, Cuticle and Protein biosynthesis in the investigation of issues within Drosophila melanogaster. James W. Fristrom combines subjects such as In vitro, Drosophilidae, Molecular biology, Morphogenesis and Transcription with his study of Imaginal disc.

His research on Morphogenesis also deals with topics like

  • Imaginal disc morphogenesis and related Enhancer,
  • Cytoskeleton which connect with Extracellular matrix and Integrin. James W. Fristrom has included themes like Botany, Evagination, Metamorphosis, Drosophila and Membrane protein in his Cell biology study. His study in Ecdysone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transgene, Moulting, Cycloheximide and Juvenile hormone.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Drosophila melanogaster (60.98%)
  • Imaginal disc (59.76%)
  • Cell biology (52.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1990-2006)?

  • Cell biology (52.44%)
  • Imaginal disc (59.76%)
  • Genetics (31.71%)

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

James W. Fristrom focuses on Cell biology, Imaginal disc, Genetics, Morphogenesis and Drosophila melanogaster. His Cell biology research includes elements of Metamorphosis and Filamentous actin. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Molecular biology under Imaginal disc, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Regulation of gene expression.

His work carried out in the field of Morphogenesis brings together such families of science as Anatomy, Mutant, Cytoskeleton and Transmembrane protein. His studies examine the connections between Drosophila melanogaster and genetics, as well as such issues in Enhancer, with regards to Membrane protein. His Ecdysone research integrates issues from Gene family, 20-Hydroxyecdysone and Transcriptional regulation.

Between 1990 and 2006, his most popular works were:

  • Talin Is Essential for Integrin Function in Drosophila (233 citations)
  • The distribution of PS integrins, laminin A and F-actin during key stages in Drosophila wing development (170 citations)
  • A switch in broad-complex zinc-finger isoform expression is regulated posttranscriptionally during the metamorphosis of Drosophila imaginal discs. (137 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Integrin, Imaginal disc, Cell biology, Genetics and Cytoskeleton are his primary areas of study. His work investigates the relationship between Integrin and topics such as Cell adhesion that intersect with problems in Complementation, Mutant, Phenotype, Drosophila melanogaster and Mutation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gene family, Gene expression, Transcriptional regulation, RNA Isoforms and 20-Hydroxyecdysone.

His Cell biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Transcription and Ecdysone. James W. Fristrom studies Gene which is a part of Genetics. His work deals with themes such as Microtubule, Cell junction and Cell–cell interaction, which intersect with Cytoskeleton.
