Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Spermidine, Polyamine, Spermine and Putrescine. His work in Biochemistry is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Molecular biology. His research investigates the connection with Spermidine and areas like DNA which intersect with concerns in RNA and Nucleic acid.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Polyamine, Cell growth are connected with EIF5A and other disciplines. He has researched Spermine in several fields, including Cell culture, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Acrolein. His Putrescine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spermine oxidase and Transmembrane protein.

His most cited work include:

  • Polyamines: Mysterious Modulators of Cellular Functions (698 citations)
  • Ornithine decarboxylase is degraded by the 26S proteasome without ubiquitination. (667 citations)
  • Site of action of a Vero toxin (VT2) from Escherichia coli O157:H7 and of Shiga toxin on eukaryotic ribosomes. RNA N-glycosidase activity of the toxins. (663 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Polyamine, Spermidine, Spermine and Molecular biology. Putrescine, Escherichia coli, Protein biosynthesis, Ribosome and Amino acid are the subjects of his Biochemistry studies. His research in Polyamine intersects with topics in Polyamine transport, Cell growth, Ornithine decarboxylase, Pharmacology and Acrolein.

The study incorporates disciplines such as RNA, Reticulocyte, Stimulation and DNA in addition to Spermidine. His research on Spermine also deals with topics like

  • Stereochemistry which connect with Binding site,
  • Channel blocker most often made with reference to Receptor. His biological study deals with issues like Mutant, which deal with fields such as Enterococcus hirae and ATPase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (63.49%)
  • Polyamine (31.33%)
  • Spermidine (30.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Polyamine (31.33%)
  • Acrolein (10.37%)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Polyamine, Acrolein, Spermidine and Spermine. His work on Biochemistry deals in particular with Protein biosynthesis, Cell growth, Escherichia coli, Glutathione and Amino acid. Kazuei Igarashi has included themes like Putrescine, Oxidase test, Spermine oxidase, Cell biology and Ribosome in his Polyamine study.

His work deals with themes such as Cell culture, Brain infarction, Reactive oxygen species, Molecular biology and Internal medicine, which intersect with Acrolein. His Spermidine research includes themes of Crystallization, Crystallography, Biophysics, Peptide sequence and Arginine. The concepts of his Spermine study are interwoven with issues in Receptor, Ifenprodil, DNA and Binding site.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Polyamines and Their Metabolites as Diagnostic Markers of Human Diseases (79 citations)
  • Modulation of protein synthesis by polyamines. (75 citations)
  • AMD1 is essential for ESC self-renewal and is translationally down-regulated on differentiation to neural precursor cells (45 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

Kazuei Igarashi mainly investigates Biochemistry, Polyamine, Acrolein, Protein biosynthesis and Spermidine. His Polyamine research includes elements of Escherichia coli, Putrescine, Spermine, Translation and Ribosome. His work in Spermine addresses subjects such as Oxidase test, which are connected to disciplines such as Catabolism.

His Acrolein study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Cholesterol, Lipoprotein and Reactive oxygen species. His Protein biosynthesis study which covers EIF5A that intersects with DNA. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Spermidine, concentrating on Arginine and intersecting with Cyanobacteria, Synechocystis and Complementation.
