Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cell cycle

John Newport focuses on Cell biology, DNA replication, Mitosis, Xenopus and Molecular biology. His Cell biology research focuses on Nuclear membrane in particular. His studies in Eukaryotic DNA replication, Origin recognition complex, Control of chromosome duplication and Pre-replication complex are all subfields of DNA replication research.

His work on Minichromosome maintenance and Replication factor C as part of general Eukaryotic DNA replication study is frequently linked to DNA clamp and DNA polymerase II, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Mitosis research includes themes of Cyclin-dependent kinase 1, Cell cycle, Maturation promoting factor and Protein kinase A. John Newport has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including Lamin, Nuclear lamina, Nuclear pore, Inner membrane and Cell nucleus.

His most cited work include:

  • The Xenopus cdc2 protein is a component of MPF, a cytoplasmic regulator of mitosis (655 citations)
  • Nuclear reconstitution in vitro: Stages of assembly around protein-free DNA (490 citations)
  • Evidence that the G1-S and G2-M transitions are controlled by different cdc2 proteins in higher eukaryotes. (406 citations)

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

John Newport spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Origin recognition complex, DNA replication, Control of chromosome duplication and Eukaryotic DNA replication. The various areas that John Newport examines in his Cell biology study include Chromatin, Xenopus, Cell cycle and Genetics. His studies in Origin recognition complex integrate themes in fields like Replication protein A and S phase.

John Newport studied DNA replication and Cyclin A that intersect with Immunoprecipitation and DNA polymerase. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including G2-M DNA damage checkpoint and Molecular biology. His research in Mitosis intersects with topics in Premature chromosome condensation, Protein kinase A, Maturation promoting factor, Cell nucleus and Interphase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (73.08%)
  • Origin recognition complex (36.54%)
  • DNA replication (36.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2007)?

  • Origin recognition complex (36.54%)
  • DNA replication (36.54%)
  • Cell biology (73.08%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Origin recognition complex, DNA replication, Cell biology, Molecular biology and Control of chromosome duplication. John Newport is interested in S phase, which is a branch of DNA replication. John Newport regularly links together related areas like Xenopus in his Cell biology studies.

His study on Molecular biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Chromatin remodeling most often made with reference to Replication factor C,
  • Chromatin together with Sperm. His Eukaryotic DNA replication research extends to Control of chromosome duplication, which is thematically connected. His research in DNA replication factor CDT1 tackles topics such as Pre-replication complex which are related to areas like Minichromosome maintenance.

Between 2000 and 2007, his most popular works were:

  • Activation of EGFR and ERK by rhomboid signaling regulates the consolidation and maintenance of sleep in Drosophila. (198 citations)
  • The Role of Single-stranded DNA and Polymerase α in Establishing the ATR, Hus1 DNA Replication Checkpoint (108 citations)
  • CpG methylation of DNA restricts prereplication complex assembly in Xenopus egg extracts. (54 citations)
