Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Joseph S. Wall mainly focuses on Crystallography, Scanning transmission electron microscopy, Biophysics, Biochemistry and Fibril. The study incorporates disciplines such as Protein structure, Dimer, Fiber and Monomer in addition to Crystallography. His Scanning transmission electron microscopy study is concerned with the larger field of Electron microscope.

The various areas that Joseph S. Wall examines in his Biophysics study include Molecular biology, Nucleus, Plant cell and Agrobacterium tumefaciens. While the research belongs to areas of Biochemistry, he spends his time largely on the problem of Cell biology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Myxococcus xanthus. His Fibril research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Peptide sequence, Recombinant DNA and Peptide.

His most cited work include:

  • α-Synuclein, Especially the Parkinson's Disease-associated Mutants, Forms Pore-like Annular and Tubular Protofibrils (666 citations)
  • Atomic-resolution structure of a disease-relevant Aβ(1–42) amyloid fibril (424 citations)
  • Atomic Resolution Structure of Monomorphic Aβ42 Amyloid Fibrils (400 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Scanning transmission electron microscopy, Crystallography, Biophysics, Electron microscope and Biochemistry. Joseph S. Wall works mostly in the field of Scanning transmission electron microscopy, limiting it down to topics relating to Ribosomal RNA and, in certain cases, Ribosomal protein and Ribosome, as a part of the same area of interest. His Crystallography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Protein structure, Dimer, Protein subunit and Molecular mass.

As a part of the same scientific family, Joseph S. Wall mostly works in the field of Dimer, focusing on Stereochemistry and, on occasion, Trimer. In the subject of general Biophysics, his work in Fibril is often linked to Amyloid fibril and Tau protein, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His study in Electron microscope is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transmission electron microscopy and Scanning electron microscope.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Scanning transmission electron microscopy (35.14%)
  • Crystallography (34.05%)
  • Biophysics (22.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Biophysics (22.70%)
  • Crystallography (34.05%)
  • Fibril (9.73%)

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

Biophysics, Crystallography, Fibril, Protein structure and Self-assembly are his primary areas of study. His research in Biophysics intersects with topics in Scanning transmission electron microscopy, Protein subunit and Biochemistry. Scanning transmission electron microscopy and Membrane are frequently intertwined in his study.

His Crystallography study also includes fields such as

  • Microscopy that intertwine with fields like Electron microscope,
  • Fiber diffraction which intersects with area such as Extracellular, Zipper, Amyloidosis and Narcissus mosaic virus. His studies deal with areas such as Negative stain and Protein aggregation as well as Fibril. Joseph S. Wall has researched Protein structure in several fields, including Transport protein, Endoplasmic reticulum, Trimer and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Atomic-resolution structure of a disease-relevant Aβ(1–42) amyloid fibril (424 citations)
  • Atomic Resolution Structure of Monomorphic Aβ42 Amyloid Fibrils (400 citations)
  • Molecular basis for insulin fibril assembly. (264 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Fibril, Crystallography, Biophysics, Protein structure and Peptide sequence. In his study, Electron microscope, Microscopy, Molecular model and Dimer is strongly linked to Protein aggregation, which falls under the umbrella field of Crystallography. His Biophysics research incorporates themes from Scanning transmission electron microscopy, Protein subunit, Peptide and Amyloidosis.

Scanning transmission electron microscopy and Transmembrane protein are two areas of study in which Joseph S. Wall engages in interdisciplinary research. Protein structure is a subfield of Biochemistry that he studies. His Peptide sequence research includes elements of Fiber diffraction, Extracellular and Sequence.
