Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Dictyostelium, Cell biology, Dictyostelium discoideum, Biochemistry and Adenylyl cyclase. Her research in Dictyostelium intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology, Regulation of gene expression, Transmembrane domain, Heterotrimeric G protein and Morphogen. Her Cell biology research includes elements of Receptor, PDE10A and Mycetozoa.

Her Dictyostelium discoideum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cell surface receptor, Developmental biology, Cellular differentiation and Multicellular organism. In the subject of general Biochemistry, her work in Eukaryote is often linked to C2 domain, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Pauline Schaap works mostly in the field of Adenylyl cyclase, limiting it down to concerns involving Spore germination and, occasionally, Mutant, Osmotic concentration and Extracellular.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genome of Acanthamoeba castellanii highlights extensive lateral gene transfer and early evolution of tyrosine kinase signaling (208 citations)
  • Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Morphology in the Social Amoebas (203 citations)
  • Induction of post-aggregative differentiation in Dictyostelium discoideum by cAMP: evidence of involvement of the cell surface cAMP receptor (127 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Dictyostelium discoideum, Dictyostelium, Cell biology, Multicellular organism and Biochemistry. Her Dictyostelium discoideum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Slug, Cell surface receptor, Gene expression and Mutant. Pauline Schaap interconnects Protein kinase A, Adenylyl cyclase, Molecular biology, Intracellular and Eukaryote in the investigation of issues within Dictyostelium.

Her Adenylyl cyclase study incorporates themes from Spore germination and Cell aggregation. Her work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Chemotaxis, Cellular differentiation and Botany. Her work in Multicellular organism tackles topics such as Evolutionary biology which are related to areas like Phylogenetics, Dictyostelid, Genome, Amoebozoa and Signalling.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Dictyostelium discoideum (47.92%)
  • Dictyostelium (47.22%)
  • Cell biology (46.53%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Multicellular organism (22.22%)
  • Dictyostelium (47.22%)
  • Dictyostelium discoideum (47.92%)

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

Pauline Schaap spends much of her time researching Multicellular organism, Dictyostelium, Dictyostelium discoideum, Evolutionary biology and Cell biology. Her Multicellular organism research focuses on Cell type and how it relates to Transcriptome, RNA-Seq and Computational biology. Her study on Dictyostelium is covered under Biochemistry.

Her Dictyostelium discoideum research includes themes of Cell fate determination and Cytokinesis. Her studies deal with areas such as Amoebozoa, Phylogenetics, Dictyostelid, Genome and Gene duplication as well as Evolutionary biology. As part of the same scientific family, Pauline Schaap usually focuses on Cell biology, concentrating on Mutant and intersecting with Gene expression.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Encystation: the most prevalent and underinvestigated differentiation pathway of eukaryotes (23 citations)
  • Effects of deletion of the receptor CrlA on Dictyostelium aggregation and MPBD-mediated responses are strain dependent and not evident in strain Ax2 (21 citations)
  • Multiple roots of fruiting body formation in Amoebozoa (20 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

Her primary scientific interests are in Genome, Evolutionary biology, Dictyostelium, Signal transduction and Gene. Her work deals with themes such as Phylogenomics and Phylogenetics, Dictyostelid, Ribosomal DNA, which intersect with Evolutionary biology. Her Dictyostelium study frequently involves adjacent topics like Dictyostelium discoideum.

Her Dictyostelium discoideum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell aggregation, Receptor and Hedgehog signaling pathway. Her Gene research integrates issues from Cell signaling and Kinase. The various areas that Pauline Schaap examines in her Regulation of gene expression study include Mutant and Cell biology.
