Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • DNA
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Nicholas E. Geacintov mainly investigates DNA, Stereochemistry, Adduct, Molecular biology and DNA polymerase. His work on Guanine expands to the thematically related DNA. His Guanine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Photochemistry, Radical and Thymine.

In his research on the topic of Stereochemistry, Duplex is strongly related with A-DNA. He has researched Adduct in several fields, including Diol, Nucleotide and Benzopyrene, Pyrene. His DNA polymerase research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of DNA polymerase delta, Polymerase, DNA synthesis and Mutagenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Error-free and error-prone lesion bypass by human DNA polymerase κ in vitro (244 citations)
  • Error-free and error-prone lesion bypass by human DNA polymerase κ in vitro (244 citations)
  • NMR SOLUTION STRUCTURES OF STEREOISOMERIC COVALENT POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC CARCINOGEN-DNA ADDUCTS : PRINCIPLES, PATTERNS, AND DIVERSITY (224 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in DNA, Stereochemistry, Adduct, Guanine and Photochemistry. DNA and Molecular biology are commonly linked in his work. He has included themes like Covalent bond, Base pair, Diol, Oligonucleotide and A-DNA in his Stereochemistry study.

Nicholas E. Geacintov interconnects Enantiomer and Pyrene, Benzopyrene in the investigation of issues within Adduct. His work carried out in the field of Guanine brings together such families of science as Cytosine and Thymine. His work deals with themes such as Ultrafast laser spectroscopy, Fluorescence, Excited state, Radical and Aqueous solution, which intersect with Photochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • DNA (48.01%)
  • Stereochemistry (37.74%)
  • Adduct (31.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • DNA (48.01%)
  • Nucleotide excision repair (16.14%)
  • DNA repair (14.05%)

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

DNA, Nucleotide excision repair, DNA repair, Guanine and DNA damage are his primary areas of study. His DNA research includes themes of Molecular biology, Adduct and Stereochemistry. His work in Stereochemistry covers topics such as Duplex which are related to areas like Stacking.

His study in DNA repair is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Base pair, Genome instability and DNA replication. His Guanine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Medicinal chemistry, Covalent bond, Photochemistry, Thymine and Radical. His studies examine the connections between DNA damage and genetics, as well as such issues in Biophysics, with regards to Nucleosome and Histone.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Two-polymerase mechanisms dictate error-free and error-prone translesion DNA synthesis in mammals (221 citations)
  • PCNA Ubiquitination Is Important, But Not Essential for Translesion DNA Synthesis in Mammalian Cells (100 citations)
  • DNA polymerase ζ cooperates with polymerases κ and ι in translesion DNA synthesis across pyrimidine photodimers in cells from XPV patients (98 citations)

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

  • DNA
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Nicholas E. Geacintov mainly focuses on DNA, DNA repair, DNA damage, Guanine and Nucleotide excision repair. DNA and Stereochemistry are frequently intertwined in his study. The various areas that Nicholas E. Geacintov examines in his Stereochemistry study include Duplex, Adduct, DNA adduct and Stacking.

His DNA repair study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Transcription factor and BTG2. His Homology directed repair study in the realm of DNA damage interacts with subjects such as GADD45A. His Guanine research incorporates elements of Peroxynitrite, Photochemistry, Radical and Pyrene.
