Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Chromosome

Cell biology, Kinetochore, Spindle apparatus, Microtubule and Centromere are his primary areas of study. His research in Cell biology is mostly focused on Mitosis. His research integrates issues of Motor protein and Sister chromatids in his study of Kinetochore.

The Microtubule study which covers Metaphase that intersects with Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching. His Centromere study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Chromatin, Cohesin and Aurora B kinase. His Chromatin research includes themes of Chromosome and Nuclease.

His most cited work include:

  • Spindle dynamics and cell cycle regulation of dynein in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. (341 citations)
  • Disruption of mitotic spindle orientation in a yeast dynein mutant (333 citations)
  • Systematic exploration of essential yeast gene function with temperature-sensitive mutants (285 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Centromere, Kinetochore, Spindle apparatus and Microtubule. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Spindle pole body, Cohesin, Chromosome segregation and Anaphase. His Centromere research incorporates elements of Chromatin, Molecular biology and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

His Metaphase research extends to the thematically linked field of Kinetochore. Kerry Bloom is interested in Spindle elongation, which is a branch of Spindle apparatus. His Microtubule research integrates issues from Astral microtubules, Microtubule nucleation and Ndc80 complex.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (64.89%)
  • Centromere (39.89%)
  • Kinetochore (39.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Cell biology (64.89%)
  • Chromatin (26.06%)
  • Centromere (39.89%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Chromatin, Centromere, Cohesin and Kinetochore. Kerry Bloom studies Microtubule, a branch of Cell biology. His study in Microtubule is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spindle pole body, Ndc80 complex, NDC80 and Cytoplasmic microtubule.

His research in Chromatin intersects with topics in Nucleus, Chromosome and Interphase. His Centromere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell cycle, Cyclin E and Chromosome segregation. His work carried out in the field of Kinetochore brings together such families of science as Feature extraction, Convolutional neural network and Computational model.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) Slx5 regulates proteolysis of centromeric histone H3 variant Cse4 and prevents its mislocalization to euchromatin (49 citations)
  • Microtubule dynamics drive enhanced chromatin motion and mobilize telomeres in response to DNA damage (46 citations)
  • How the kinetochore couples microtubule force and centromere stretch to move chromosomes (46 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Chromosome

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Centromere, Chromatin, Microtubule and Kinetochore. He combines subjects such as Spindle apparatus, Spindle checkpoint, Ubiquitin and Centromeric histone with his study of Cell biology. Kerry Bloom has researched Centromere in several fields, including Tumor progression, Cyclin E, Cell cycle and Histone.

His work deals with themes such as Chromosome and Cell nucleus, Nucleus, which intersect with Chromatin. His Microtubule study incorporates themes from Microtubule nucleation, Ndc80 complex, NDC80 and Mitosis. His Kinetochore research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Simulation, Cohesin and Central spindle.
