Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

John E. Donelson spends much of his time researching Gene, Molecular biology, Genetics, Trypanosoma brucei and DNA. Genome, Peptide sequence and Gene expression are the primary areas of interest in his Gene study. His work carried out in the field of Molecular biology brings together such families of science as Coding region, Complementary DNA, Untranslated region, Trypanosoma cruzi and Polymerase chain reaction.

While the research belongs to areas of Trypanosoma brucei, he spends his time largely on the problem of RNA interference, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Flagellum and Cell biology. The DNA study combines topics in areas such as Genetic heterogeneity, Chromosome, Karyotype and Gel electrophoresis. His Nucleic acid sequence research includes elements of Molecular cloning and Base pair.

His most cited work include:

  • The Genome of the African Trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei (1391 citations)
  • Comparative genomics of trypanosomatid parasitic protozoa. (649 citations)
  • Detection of Trypanosoma cruzi by DNA amplification using the polymerase chain reaction. (307 citations)

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

John E. Donelson mostly deals with Molecular biology, Gene, Genetics, Trypanosoma brucei and DNA. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Plasmid, RNA, Complementary DNA, Messenger RNA and Regulation of gene expression. His Gene study frequently links to related topics such as Trypanosoma cruzi.

All of his Genetics and Nucleic acid sequence, Genome, Gene duplication, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense and Trypanosoma investigations are sub-components of the entire Genetics study. His Trypanosoma brucei research focuses on Glycoprotein and how it relates to Amino acid. His study in DNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Recombinant DNA and Mitochondrial DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (54.29%)
  • Gene (54.29%)
  • Genetics (48.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2017)?

  • Gene (54.29%)
  • Molecular biology (54.29%)
  • Leishmania (12.57%)

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

His primary areas of study are Gene, Molecular biology, Leishmania, Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania chagasi. His Gene study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetics. His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like Plasmid, RNA, RNA interference, Protease and Messenger RNA.

His Leishmania research integrates issues from Immune system, Antigen, Protozoa, Microbiology and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Trypanosoma brucei brings together such families of science as Glycoprotein, Promoter, Untranslated region, Trypanosoma and Trypanosoma cruzi. He has researched Leishmania chagasi in several fields, including Amastigote and Virulence.

Between 2002 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • The Genome of the African Trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei (1391 citations)
  • Comparative genomics of trypanosomatid parasitic protozoa. (649 citations)
  • The major surface protease (MSP or GP63) of Leishmania sp. Biosynthesis, regulation of expression, and function. (218 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Gene, Trypanosoma brucei, Genetics, Molecular biology and Leishmania. His research on Gene often connects related topics like Trypanosoma. His research in Genome, Pseudogene and Gene family are components of Genetics.

His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as RNA interference, Protease, Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Polymerase chain reaction. His RNA interference research incorporates themes from Plasmid, Trypanosoma cruzi and Untranslated region. His Leishmania course of study focuses on Microbiology and Leishmania chagasi, Lipophosphoglycan, Leishmania infantum, In vitro and Virulence.
