Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Genome, Virology, Anopheles gambiae and Transposase. His work in Genetics is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Evolutionary biology. His studies deal with areas such as Drosophila melanogaster and Sequence analysis as well as Genome.

His studies in Virology integrate themes in fields like RNA, RNA interference and Innate immune system. His Anopheles gambiae study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arthropod Vector and Anopheles. His study on Transposase is covered under Transposable element.

His most cited work include:

  • The Genome Sequence of the Malaria Mosquito Anopheles gambiae (1783 citations)
  • The genome of the model beetle and pest Tribolium castaneum. (1039 citations)
  • Genome sequence of Aedes aegypti, a major arbovirus vector (949 citations)

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

Peter W. Atkinson mainly investigates Genetics, Transposable element, Transposase, Gene and Drosophila melanogaster. His work on Genome, Inverted repeat and Function as part of general Genetics research is frequently linked to Anopheles gambiae, bridging the gap between disciplines. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Evolutionary biology, Plasmid, Transgene and Transformation.

The various areas that he examines in his Transposase study include Transposon mutagenesis, Sterility, Botany and Transposons as a genetic tool. His work carried out in the field of Gene brings together such families of science as Molecular biology and Computational biology. His Drosophila melanogaster study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Antirrhinum majus and Genetic model.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (68.42%)
  • Transposable element (63.16%)
  • Transposase (38.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Genetics (68.42%)
  • Genome (31.58%)
  • Transposable element (63.16%)

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

Peter W. Atkinson spends much of his time researching Genetics, Genome, Transposable element, Transposase and Evolutionary biology. His research on Genetics frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Computational biology. The Genome engineering research he does as part of his general Genome study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Ceratitis capitata, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Peter W. Atkinson has included themes like Drosophila melanogaster, Transposition, Sterility, Transformation and Genetic screen in his Transposase study. His Drosophila melanogaster study is concerned with the larger field of Gene. His research in Evolutionary biology intersects with topics in Ecology, Invertebrate, Human genome, Vertebrate and Horizontal gene transfer.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The whole genome sequence of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), reveals insights into the biology and adaptive evolution of a highly invasive pest species (93 citations)
  • Structural Basis of Hat Transposon End Recognition by Hermes, an Octameric DNA Transposase from Musca Domestica. (49 citations)
  • A resurrected mammalian hAT transposable element and a closely related insect element are highly active in human cell culture (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Peter W. Atkinson spends much of his time researching Genetics, Transposase, Transposable element, Genome and Evolutionary biology. Peter W. Atkinson integrates several fields in his works, including Genetics and Protein-DNA complex. Peter W. Atkinson incorporates a variety of subjects into his writings, including Protein-DNA complex, P element, Transposon mutagenesis, Composite transposon, Tn3 transposon and Sleeping Beauty transposon system.

His DNA Transposable Elements study combines topics in areas such as Function and Eukaryote. Peter W. Atkinson has researched Drosophila in several fields, including PEST analysis, Sterile insect technique, Host adaptation and Molecular evolution. His Insertional mutagenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phylogenetics, Horizontal gene transfer, Human genome and Genome engineering.
