Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Cell membrane

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Dynamin, Endocytosis, Endocytic cycle and Synaptic vesicle. His Cell biology research includes elements of BAR domain and Synaptic vesicle endocytosis, Clathrin. His Synaptic vesicle endocytosis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bulk endocytosis, Synaptojanin and Synaptic vesicle recycling.

His work in Dynamin tackles topics such as Vesicle which are related to areas like Endocytic vesicle and Membrane transport. The Synaptic vesicle study combines topics in areas such as Exocytosis, Synaptic augmentation and G protein. Pietro De Camilli interconnects Biophysics and Insulin dependent diabetes in the investigation of issues within Biochemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Phosphoinositides in cell regulation and membrane dynamics (2031 citations)
  • Identification of the 64K autoantigen in insulin-dependent diabetes as the GABA-synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase (1421 citations)
  • Botulinum neurotoxin A selectively cleaves the synaptic protein SNAP-25 (1023 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Endocytosis, Endocytic cycle, Dynamin and Clathrin. His work focuses on many connections between Cell biology and other disciplines, such as Synaptic vesicle, that overlap with his field of interest in Neurotransmission and Synaptic augmentation. His work carried out in the field of Endocytosis brings together such families of science as Internalization, Cell membrane and Actin.

The study incorporates disciplines such as OCRL, Signal transducing adaptor protein and Endosome in addition to Endocytic cycle. His Dynamin research integrates issues from GTPase and Bulk endocytosis. Biochemistry covers Pietro De Camilli research in Clathrin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (73.91%)
  • Endocytosis (29.28%)
  • Endocytic cycle (26.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Cell biology (73.91%)
  • Biophysics (11.01%)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum (10.43%)

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

Cell biology, Biophysics, Endoplasmic reticulum, Endocytosis and Lipid Transport are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Endocytic cycle, Clathrin, Cell membrane and Dynamin as well as Cell biology. Pietro De Camilli combines subjects such as Phosphatase, OCRL, Endosome and Synaptic vesicle recycling with his study of Endocytic cycle.

His Biophysics study also includes

  • Membrane which intersects with area such as Liposome and Förster resonance energy transfer,
  • Synaptic vesicle which intersects with area such as Exocytosis. His study in Endoplasmic reticulum is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cytosol, Transporter, Synaptotagmins and Calcium signaling. His research investigates the connection between Endocytosis and topics such as Actin that intersect with problems in Epsin.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The BioPlex Network: A Systematic Exploration of the Human Interactome (837 citations)
  • PI4P/phosphatidylserine countertransport at ORP5- and ORP8-mediated ER–plasma membrane contacts (308 citations)
  • Membrane fission by dynamin: what we know and what we need to know (239 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Cell membrane

Pietro De Camilli spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Cell membrane, Endoplasmic reticulum, Endocytosis and Lipid Transport. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Membrane contact site and Membrane protein. His study on Cell membrane also encompasses disciplines like

  • Synaptotagmins that connect with fields like Synaptotagmin 1 and Membrane lipids,
  • Biophysics and related Biochemistry, Synaptic vesicle, Synapsin and Phosphorylation.

His Endoplasmic reticulum study incorporates themes from Membrane, Phosphatidylserine and Calcium signaling. His work on Dynamin, Endocytic cycle and Clathrin as part of general Endocytosis study is frequently connected to Sphingosine kinase 1, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His work deals with themes such as Cell signaling, Cell fusion, Cellular differentiation and Synaptic vesicle recycling, which intersect with Dynamin.
