Member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Molecular Biology

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, DNA repair, DNA glycosylase, Molecular biology and DNA. His study in Active site, Mutagenesis, Binding site, Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 3 and SLC1A1 are all subfields of Biochemistry. His work carried out in the field of DNA repair brings together such families of science as Protein subunit, DNA damage and Cell biology.

Magnar Bjørås has researched DNA glycosylase in several fields, including Base excision repair, AP site, Nucleotide excision repair, Cell cycle and Transcription. His work investigates the relationship between Molecular biology and topics such as Chromatin that intersect with problems in Phosphoserine. His DNA study combines topics in areas such as RNA, Gene and Nucleic acid.

His most cited work include:

  • Cloning and expression of a rat brain L-glutamate transporter. (1128 citations)
  • Cloning and expression of a rat brain L-glutamate transporter. (1128 citations)
  • Base Excision Repair (550 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are DNA repair, DNA glycosylase, Biochemistry, DNA and Molecular biology. His DNA repair research integrates issues from Gene expression, DNA damage, Mitochondrial DNA, DNA ligase and Cell biology. He interconnects Oxidative stress, Internal medicine and Endocrinology in the investigation of issues within DNA damage.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Base excision repair, Nucleotide excision repair and Transcription in addition to DNA glycosylase. His Base excision repair study deals with AP site intersecting with Schizosaccharomyces pombe. His DNA study also includes

  • Gene, which have a strong connection to Genome instability,
  • RNA which connect with Nucleic acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA repair (45.57%)
  • DNA glycosylase (40.19%)
  • Biochemistry (40.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cell biology (31.96%)
  • Gene (24.05%)
  • DNA (35.76%)

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

Magnar Bjørås focuses on Cell biology, Gene, DNA, Virology and DNA damage. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Base excision repair, DNA repair, Gene expression and RNA. His studies examine the connections between Base excision repair and genetics, as well as such issues in DNA glycosylase, with regards to Transcription.

His DNA repair research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mutation and Ku80. The various areas that Magnar Bjørås examines in his Gene study include Phosphoglucomutase and Genome instability. His DNA study is related to the wider topic of Biochemistry.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Discovery and development of safe-in-man broad-spectrum antiviral agents. (73 citations)
  • Potential Antiviral Options against SARS-CoV-2 Infection. (39 citations)
  • Novel Antiviral Activities of Obatoclax, Emetine, Niclosamide, Brequinar, and Homoharringtonine (35 citations)
