Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Gene, Genome, Genomic organization and Retrotransposon. His study in Trypanosoma brucei extends to Genome with its themes. His Trypanosoma brucei study incorporates themes from Subtelomere, Leishmania major, Pseudogene and Untranslated region.

His Genomic organization study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Expressed sequence tag, Genomic library, Complementary DNA, cDNA library and Peptide sequence. His Retrotransposon research incorporates themes from Whole genome sequencing, Mitochondrial DNA, Leishmania, Retroposon and Sequence analysis. His Synteny research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gene mapping, Caenorhabditis elegans, Wolbachia and Trypanosoma.

His most cited work include:

  • The Genome of the African Trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei (1391 citations)
  • The Genome of the African Trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei (1391 citations)
  • The genome sequence of Trypanosoma cruzi, etiologic agent of Chagas disease (1143 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Gene, Genome, Gene expression and Trypanosoma brucei. As part of his studies on Genetics, he often connects relevant areas like Molecular biology. His Gene study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Trypanosoma cruzi.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Regulation of gene expression, Messenger RNA and Antigen. His research integrates issues of Subtelomere, Phosphoglycerate kinase, Glycolysis, Phosphoglycerate mutase and Essential gene in his study of Trypanosoma brucei. His research in Genomic organization intersects with topics in cDNA library and Sequence analysis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (65.74%)
  • Gene (56.48%)
  • Genome (44.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Microbiology (10.19%)
  • Transcriptome (12.04%)
  • Cell biology (12.04%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Transcriptome, Cell biology, Inflammation and Streptococcus. Najib M. El-Sayed interconnects Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Cystic fibrosis, Immune system and Virulence in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. His Transcriptome study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology, Hsp70, Metallothionein, Trypanosoma cruzi and Gene silencing.

His study in Trypanosoma cruzi is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both RNA-binding protein, Messenger RNA, Gene expression and Gene. His study in the fields of STAT1 and Phosphorylation under the domain of Cell biology overlaps with other disciplines such as Tyrosine kinase 2 and Cell signaling. The subject of his Pathogen research is within the realm of Genetics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Differential content of proteins, mRNAs, and miRNAs suggests that MDSC and their exosomes may mediate distinct immune suppressive functions (40 citations)
  • Host and parasite responses in human diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by L. amazonensis. (27 citations)
  • Discovery of glycerol phosphate modification on streptococcal rhamnose polysaccharides. (23 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His main research concerns Microbiology, Immune system, Transferase, Antigen and CD8. Najib M. El-Sayed has included themes like Regulation of gene expression, Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, Metabolic pathway and Virulence in his Microbiology study. His work on Innate immune system as part of general Immune system research is frequently linked to Myeloid-derived Suppressor Cell, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His Transferase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Polysaccharide, Carbohydrate and Bacteria. Najib M. El-Sayed has researched Antigen in several fields, including T cell, Leishmaniasis and Gene expression. His Biochemistry and Rhamnose and Cell wall investigations all form part of his Biochemistry research activities.
