1984 - Fellow of John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Gene, Chloroplast DNA and Chlamydomonas. His Genetics study often links to related topics such as Molecular biology. His Molecular biology research includes themes of Plasmid, Ribosomal RNA, Mutant, 23S ribosomal RNA and Escherichia coli.

His study in Start codon extends to Chlamydomonas reinhardtii with its themes. His study in Chloroplast DNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both FLP-FRT recombination, Plastid and DNA, DNA repair. His research in Chlamydomonas intersects with topics in Epigenetics, Inverted repeat, Transformation and Organelle.

His most cited work include:

  • Chloroplast transformation in Chlamydomonas with high velocity microprojectiles. (843 citations)
  • Transformation of chloroplast ribosomal RNA genes in Chlamydomonas: molecular and genetic characterization of integration events. (230 citations)
  • Epigenetic silencing of a foreign gene in nuclear transformants of Chlamydomonas. (158 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Chlamydomonas, Genetics, Chloroplast and Mutant. His studies deal with areas such as Chloroplast DNA, Molecular biology, Photoinhibition and Ribosomal protein as well as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. His Chlamydomonas study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Recombination, Ribosome, Chloroplast ribosome, Mutation and Nuclear gene.

Nicholas W. Gillham has included themes like Photosynthesis, Photosystem II, Gene mutation, Protein biosynthesis and Cell biology in his Chloroplast study. His research in Mutant tackles topics such as Amino acid which are related to areas like Peptide sequence. In general Gene, his work in Plasmid and Plastid is often linked to Zygote linking many areas of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (59.05%)
  • Chlamydomonas (55.24%)
  • Genetics (54.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2015)?

  • Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (59.05%)
  • Mutant (36.19%)
  • Genetics (54.29%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Mutant, Genetics, Molecular biology and Chlamydomonas. His Chlamydomonas reinhardtii research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Photoinhibition, Chloroplast and Botany. His Chloroplast study deals with Photosystem II intersecting with Transmembrane domain, RuBisCO, Protein subunit and Translational regulation.

Specifically, his work in Mutant is concerned with the study of Wild type. Nicholas W. Gillham combines subjects such as Start codon and Coding region with his study of Molecular biology. The Chlamydomonas study combines topics in areas such as Chromatin, Gene silencing, Epigenetics and DNA methylation.

Between 1996 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Epigenetic silencing of a foreign gene in nuclear transformants of Chlamydomonas. (158 citations)
  • A Eubacterial Gene Conferring Spectinomycin Resistance on Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii: Integration into the Nuclear Genome and Gene Expression (115 citations)
  • Differential regulation of chloroplast gene expression in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii during photoacclimation: light stress transiently suppresses synthesis of the Rubisco LSU protein while enhancing synthesis of the PS II D1 protein. (87 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His main research concerns Molecular biology, Gene, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Genetics and Chlamydomonas. His work deals with themes such as Photosynthesis, Translational regulation, Protein subunit, Coding region and Untranslated region, which intersect with Molecular biology. His Coding region study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plasmid and Gene expression.

His Chlamydomonas reinhardtii research is included under the broader classification of Mutant. His Chlamydomonas study incorporates themes from Chromatin, Five prime untranslated region, Transgene and DNA methylation. The various areas that Nicholas W. Gillham examines in his Chloroplast study include Shine-Dalgarno sequence, Sequence alignment, Escherichia coli, Reporter gene and Photosystem II.
