Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Receptor, Peptide sequence, Ligand and Binding site. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Leukotriene. The concepts of his Leukotriene study are interwoven with issues in Complementary DNA, Lipoxygenase, Enzyme and Transfection.

His Peptide sequence study incorporates themes from Biophysics, Cysteine and Cell membrane. His study in Binding site is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Agonist, Stereochemistry and Serine. The Amino acid study combines topics in areas such as Molecular cloning, GTPase, Molecular mass and Transmembrane protein.

His most cited work include:

  • Cloning of the gene and cDNA for mammalian β -adrenergic receptor and homology with rhodopsin (1093 citations)
  • Requirement of a 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein for leukotriene synthesis (691 citations)
  • Cloning of bovine GAP and its interaction with oncogenic ras p21 (487 citations)

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

Richard A. F. Dixon spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Receptor, Molecular biology, Amino acid and Peptide sequence. Biochemistry is a component of his Enzyme, Complementary DNA, Binding site, Nucleic acid and Molecular cloning studies. His studies in Receptor integrate themes in fields like Stereochemistry and Cell biology.

He has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including Nucleic acid sequence, RNA, Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase, Homology and Peptide. His studies deal with areas such as Residue, GTPase, GTP' and GTPase-activating protein as well as Amino acid. His Agonist research also works with subjects such as

  • Beta-1 adrenergic receptor which intersects with area such as Cyclase,
  • Aspartic acid most often made with reference to Adrenergic receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (70.15%)
  • Receptor (29.85%)
  • Molecular biology (26.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1991-1995)?

  • Biochemistry (70.15%)
  • Vascular smooth muscle (7.46%)
  • Polynucleotide (7.46%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Vascular smooth muscle, Polynucleotide, Cell growth and Nucleic acid. Much of his study explores Biochemistry relationship to Molecular biology. His study in Molecular biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell culture, U937 cell, Viral vector, Recombinant DNA and RNA.

His work in Vascular smooth muscle incorporates the disciplines of Gene, Related gene, Phosphatidylinositol and Kinase. The Growth Factor Receptor Gene and Protein subunit research Richard A. F. Dixon does as part of his general Gene study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Oncogene, Tenascin and Fibroblast growth factor receptor, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 1991 and 1995, his most popular works were:

  • cDNA cloning and expression of bovine aspartyl (asparaginyl) beta-hydroxylase. (75 citations)
  • Leukotriene synthesis in U937 cells expressing recombinant 5-lipoxygenase. (20 citations)
  • Antisense molecules directed against genes of the raf oncogene family (17 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Gene, Vascular smooth muscle and Oncogene. His Biochemistry study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Leukotriene. His Leukotriene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both In vitro, Viral vector, Recombinant DNA, RNA and Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase.

He combines subjects such as Cell culture and U937 cell with his study of Viral vector. Richard A. F. Dixon has included themes like Polynucleotide, Nucleic acid and Cell growth in his Gene study. The study incorporates disciplines such as cDNA library and Open reading frame in addition to Molecular cloning.
