Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Major histocompatibility complex, MHC class I, Cell biology, Molecular biology and MHC restriction. His studies in Major histocompatibility complex integrate themes in fields like T cell, Antigen presentation and CD8. MHC class I is a subfield of Genetics that he explores.

His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Antigen processing and Transporter associated with antigen processing. His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like Mitogen-activated protein kinase and Peptide sequence. As a part of the same scientific family, Nilabh Shastri mostly works in the field of MHC restriction, focusing on Peptide and, on occasion, Cytotoxic T cell and CTL*.

His most cited work include:

  • Immunodominant, protective response to the parasite Toxoplasma gondii requires antigen processing in the endoplasmic reticulum (176 citations)
  • Endogenous generation and presentation of the ovalbumin peptide/Kb complex to T cells. (172 citations)
  • Leucine-tRNA initiates at CUG start codons for protein synthesis and presentation by MHC class I. (149 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are MHC class I, Major histocompatibility complex, Antigen, Antigen presentation and Molecular biology. His MHC class I study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peptide and Cell biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytotoxic T cell, Antigen-presenting cell and CD8.

Nilabh Shastri studied Antigen and Virology that intersect with Toxoplasma gondii. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of T-Cell Receptor Beta Chain, T cell, MHC class II, T-cell receptor and Transfection. His research in Antigen processing focuses on subjects like Endoplasmic reticulum, which are connected to Aminopeptidase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • MHC class I (55.66%)
  • Major histocompatibility complex (52.83%)
  • Antigen (36.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2019)?

  • MHC class I (55.66%)
  • Major histocompatibility complex (52.83%)
  • Antigen presentation (32.08%)

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

Nilabh Shastri mainly investigates MHC class I, Major histocompatibility complex, Antigen presentation, Antigen and Cytotoxic T cell. Nilabh Shastri interconnects Biophysics, Peptide and Cell biology in the investigation of issues within MHC class I. His work carried out in the field of Major histocompatibility complex brings together such families of science as Molecular biology and T cell.

His work deals with themes such as CD1, Intracellular parasite and Virology, which intersect with Antigen. Within one scientific family, Nilabh Shastri focuses on topics pertaining to CD8 under Virology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Toxoplasma gondii, Chronic infection and T-cell receptor. His Cytotoxic T cell research integrates issues from Epitope and Computational biology.

Between 2012 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Critical role of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 in determining the length and sequence of peptides bound and presented by HLA-B27. (65 citations)
  • Location of the CD8 T cell epitope within the antigenic precursor determines immunogenicity and protection against the Toxoplasma gondii parasite. (47 citations)
  • Continuous Effector CD8+ T Cell Production in a Controlled Persistent Infection Is Sustained by a Proliferative Intermediate Population (40 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Genetics

Nilabh Shastri mostly deals with Major histocompatibility complex, Cytotoxic T cell, Antigen presentation, Peptide and Epitope. Nilabh Shastri is involved in the study of Major histocompatibility complex that focuses on MHC class I in particular. His Antigen processing study in the realm of MHC class I connects with subjects such as Repertoire.

His Epitope research includes themes of Intracellular parasite and Immunogenicity. Nilabh Shastri focuses mostly in the field of Antigen, narrowing it down to matters related to Virology and, in some cases, Immunology. His Aminopeptidase research includes elements of Molecular biology, Peptide binding, Minor histocompatibility antigen and Transfection.
