Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • RNA

Genetics, RNA silencing, RNA, RNA interference and Cell biology are his primary areas of study. His research combines Computational biology and Genetics. His research integrates issues of Small RNA, Dicer and Trans-acting siRNA in his study of RNA silencing.

RNA is represented through his RNA-induced transcriptional silencing, RNA-induced silencing complex and DNA-directed RNA interference research. His RNA interference research incorporates elements of Molecular biology, Gene silencing and Enzyme complex. The various areas that Phillip D. Zamore examines in his Cell biology study include Non-coding RNA, Ribonucleoprotein, Splicing Factor U2AF, snRNP and Small interfering RNA.

His most cited work include:

  • RNAi: Double-Stranded RNA Directs the ATP-Dependent Cleavage of mRNA at 21 to 23 Nucleotide Intervals (2555 citations)
  • Asymmetry in the assembly of the RNAi enzyme complex. (2528 citations)
  • A cellular function for the RNA-interference enzyme Dicer in the maturation of the let-7 small temporal RNA. (2405 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, RNA, Cell biology, RNA interference and Gene silencing. His work deals with themes such as Cleavage and Oligonucleotide, which intersect with RNA. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular biology, microRNA, Gene expression and Messenger RNA.

Phillip D. Zamore does research in RNA interference, focusing on RNA silencing specifically. His RNA silencing study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as DNA-directed RNA interference, Non-coding RNA, RNA-induced transcriptional silencing and Dicer. Phillip D. Zamore works mostly in the field of Argonaute, limiting it down to concerns involving Small RNA and, occasionally, Transposable element.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (45.61%)
  • RNA (39.33%)
  • Cell biology (38.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (38.49%)
  • RNA (39.33%)
  • Piwi-interacting RNA (19.25%)

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

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, RNA, Piwi-interacting RNA, microRNA and RNA interference. Phillip D. Zamore has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Genome editing, Transfection, Argonaute and Recombinant DNA. His RNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Molecular biology.

His Piwi-interacting RNA research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transcription, Gene expression and Germline. His work carried out in the field of RNA interference brings together such families of science as Gene silencing and Small interfering RNA. His Gene research is classified as research in Genetics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • PIWI-interacting RNAs: small RNAs with big functions (274 citations)
  • Pan-arthropod analysis reveals somatic piRNAs as an ancestral defence against transposable elements. (129 citations)
  • A Single Mechanism of Biogenesis, Initiated and Directed by PIWI Proteins, Explains piRNA Production in Most Animals. (75 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • RNA

Phillip D. Zamore mainly focuses on RNA, Piwi-interacting RNA, Cell biology, RNA interference and Transposable element. His work focuses on many connections between RNA and other disciplines, such as Computational biology, that overlap with his field of interest in Polymerase chain reaction. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Gene expression, Expression vector, Argonaute, Capsid and Genome editing.

The concepts of his RNA interference study are interwoven with issues in Gene silencing and microRNA. His Gene silencing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Aptamer and Small interfering RNA. Gene is a subfield of Genetics that Phillip D. Zamore tackles.
