Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • RNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Translational frameshift, Gene, Ribosome and Open reading frame. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Stop codon, Conserved sequence, RNA, Translation and Coding region. His research in Translation intersects with topics in Genetic code and Computational biology.

His Translational frameshift research entails a greater understanding of Frameshift mutation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nucleic acid structure, Transfer RNA and Bacterial virus in addition to Frameshift mutation. His work deals with themes such as Shine-Dalgarno sequence and Start codon, which intersect with Open reading frame.

His most cited work include:

  • An overlapping essential gene in the Potyviridae. (553 citations)
  • An Overlapping Protein-Coding Region in Influenza A Virus Segment 3 Modulates the Host Response (455 citations)
  • An Overlapping Protein-Coding Region in Influenza A Virus Segment 3 Modulates the Host Response (455 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, Translational frameshift, Ribosome and Frameshift mutation. His Open reading frame, Translation, Stop codon, Transfer RNA and RNA investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His study connects Molecular biology and Gene.

His Translational frameshift research incorporates themes from Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme, Virology, Reading frame, Insertion sequence and Pseudoknot. His research investigates the link between Ribosome and topics such as Messenger RNA that cross with problems in Cell biology. His Frameshift mutation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic code and Mutant.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (88.22%)
  • Gene (56.71%)
  • Translational frameshift (50.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Genetics (88.22%)
  • Translational frameshift (50.14%)
  • Messenger RNA (24.11%)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, Translational frameshift, Messenger RNA, Ribosome and Gene. His study in Genetics focuses on Frameshift mutation, Translation, Open reading frame, Eukaryotic translation and Ribosome profiling. His Translational frameshift study contributes to a more complete understanding of Biochemistry.

John F. Atkins has researched Messenger RNA in several fields, including Stop codon, Protein subunit and Protein biosynthesis. His research integrates issues of Coding region, Ribosomal RNA, Transfer RNA and Cell biology in his study of Ribosome. His RNA research integrates issues from Retrotransposon and Virology.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ribosomal frameshifting and transcriptional slippage: From genetic steganography and cryptography to adventitious use. (149 citations)
  • Evidence of efficient stop codon readthrough in four mammalian genes (132 citations)
  • Evidence of efficient stop codon readthrough in four mammalian genes (132 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • RNA

John F. Atkins mainly investigates Genetics, Messenger RNA, Gene, Stop codon and Ribosome. His work on Gene expression, Frameshift mutation and Genetic code as part of general Genetics study is frequently connected to Epitope and Antigen presentation, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. As a member of one scientific family, John F. Atkins mostly works in the field of Frameshift mutation, focusing on RNA and, on occasion, Virology.

While the research belongs to areas of Messenger RNA, John F. Atkins spends his time largely on the problem of Protein biosynthesis, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Conserved sequence, Translational readthrough, Transcription, Coding region and HEK 293 cells. John F. Atkins is interested in Open reading frame, which is a branch of Gene. In the field of Ribosome, his study on Translational frameshift overlaps with subjects such as Context.
