Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • DNA
  • Biochemistry
  • Amino acid

Marc R. Block spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Integrin, N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein, Golgi apparatus and Podosome. His Integrin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell adhesion and Focal adhesion. His work carried out in the field of Cell adhesion brings together such families of science as Fibronectin and Molecular biology.

Marc R. Block regularly ties together related areas like Endoplasmic reticulum in his N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein studies. His Podosome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Extracellular matrix, Paxillin, Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src and Cell adhesion molecule. Marc R. Block combines subjects such as COPII, Secretory pathway, COPI and STIM1 with his study of Vesicular transport protein.

His most cited work include:

  • A fusion protein required for vesicle-mediated transport in both mammalian cells and yeast (461 citations)
  • A fusion protein required for vesicle-mediated transport in both mammalian cells and yeast (461 citations)
  • Purification of an N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive protein catalyzing vesicular transport. (418 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Integrin, Cell adhesion, Extracellular matrix and Focal adhesion. Marc R. Block works mostly in the field of Cell biology, limiting it down to concerns involving Podosome and, occasionally, Paxillin. His Integrin study incorporates themes from Fibronectin, Cytoplasm, Signal transduction and Cell adhesion molecule.

His Extracellular matrix research includes elements of Mechanotransduction and Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src. His work on Focal adhesion assembly is typically connected to PTK2 as part of general Focal adhesion study, connecting several disciplines of science. His studies deal with areas such as Golgi apparatus and Endoplasmic reticulum as well as Chinese hamster ovary cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (122.92%)
  • Integrin (78.12%)
  • Cell adhesion (47.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Cell biology (122.92%)
  • Cell adhesion (47.92%)
  • Extracellular matrix (43.75%)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Cell adhesion, Extracellular matrix, Integrin and Podosome. The Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src research Marc R. Block does as part of his general Cell biology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Merlin, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His research in Cell adhesion intersects with topics in Biophysics, Cell signaling, Cell growth and Hyaluronic acid.

His Extracellular matrix research focuses on Adhesion and how it connects with Function and IQGAP1. His Integrin study combines topics in areas such as PAK1, Signal transduction and RAC1. His Focal adhesion research incorporates themes from Platelet activation and Collagen receptor, Integrin alpha M.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • β1 integrin dependent Rac/group I PAK signaling mediates YAP activation of Yes associated protein 1 (YAP1) via NF2/merlin. (58 citations)
  • Type, density, and presentation of grafted adhesion peptides on polysaccharide-based hydrogels control preosteoblast behavior and differentiation. (16 citations)
  • Roles of paxillin family members in adhesion and ECM degradation coupling at invadosomes (14 citations)

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

  • DNA
  • Amino acid
  • Biochemistry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Extracellular matrix, Adhesion, Cell biology, LIM domain and Function. The various areas that he examines in his Extracellular matrix study include Bioconjugation, Biophysics, Self-healing hydrogels, Polymer chemistry and Peptide. Marc R. Block has researched Adhesion in several fields, including Ethylene glycol and Hyaluronic acid.

His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer research and Integrin. His LIM domain research includes a combination of various areas of study, such as Paxillin, Janus kinase 1, IQGAP1 and Podosome.
