Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Mikio Nishimura spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Cell biology, Vacuole, Arabidopsis and Peroxisome. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Protease, Mutant and Programmed cell death. His study explores the link between Mutant and topics such as Autophagosome that cross with problems in Physiology, Chaperone-mediated autophagy, Computational biology and MAP1LC3B.

His studies in Vacuole integrate themes in fields like Storage protein, Protein storage vacuole, Transport protein and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His Arabidopsis research includes elements of Arabidopsis thaliana, Polyamine oxidase, Polyamine Catabolism and Syntaxin. The various areas that Mikio Nishimura examines in his Peroxisome study include Polyamine and Cytosol.

His most cited work include:

  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
  • A Plant Vacuolar Protease, VPE, Mediates Virus-Induced Hypersensitive Cell Death (517 citations)
  • A Plant Vacuolar Protease, VPE, Mediates Virus-Induced Hypersensitive Cell Death (517 citations)

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

Mikio Nishimura mainly investigates Biochemistry, Cell biology, Peroxisome, Arabidopsis and Arabidopsis thaliana. Glyoxysome, Vacuole, Enzyme, Complementary DNA and Cucurbita are subfields of Biochemistry in which his conducts study. His Vacuole research incorporates elements of Storage protein, Protein body, Vesicle and Signal peptide.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gene and Programmed cell death. His Peroxisome research integrates issues from Photorespiration and Green fluorescent protein. Mikio Nishimura has researched Arabidopsis in several fields, including Autophagy, Gene expression and Cytosol.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (83.29%)
  • Cell biology (40.60%)
  • Peroxisome (39.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Cell biology (40.60%)
  • Arabidopsis (36.43%)
  • Biochemistry (83.29%)

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

Mikio Nishimura mostly deals with Cell biology, Arabidopsis, Biochemistry, Peroxisome and Arabidopsis thaliana. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Mutant and Green fluorescent protein. As part of one scientific family, Mikio Nishimura deals mainly with the area of Arabidopsis, narrowing it down to issues related to the Transcription factor, and often Jasmonic acid.

His Peroxisome research includes themes of Autophagy, Photorespiration, Chloroplast and Chaperone. In his research on the topic of Arabidopsis thaliana, Plant defense against herbivory, Storage protein and Transporter is strongly related with Botany. The concepts of his Organelle study are interwoven with issues in Plant cell and Vacuole.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition) (4170 citations)
  • Myosin XI-i Links the Nuclear Membrane to the Cytoskeleton to Control Nuclear Movement and Shape in Arabidopsis (139 citations)
  • Highly Oxidized Peroxisomes Are Selectively Degraded via Autophagy in Arabidopsis (137 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Arabidopsis, Biochemistry, Peroxisome and Arabidopsis thaliana. His Cell biology research focuses on Chloroplast and how it relates to Membrane biogenesis. His research in the fields of Mutant, Peroxisomal targeting signal and Subcellular localization overlaps with other disciplines such as Peroxin and PEX1.

Mikio Nishimura interconnects Autophagy, PEX6, Transport protein, Proteolysis and Cytosol in the investigation of issues within Peroxisome. His research investigates the link between Autophagy and topics such as Catalase that cross with problems in Glyoxysome and Vacuole. His work carried out in the field of Arabidopsis thaliana brings together such families of science as Endoplasmic reticulum and Mucilage, Plant Mucilage, Botany.
