Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Biochemistry, Glycan, Molecular biology, Glycoprotein and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 are his primary areas of study. His studies in Lectin, Plasma protein binding, Chinese hamster ovary cell, Oligosaccharide and Sialic acid are all subfields of Biochemistry research. The various areas that Richard D. Cummings examines in his Glycan study include DNA microarray, Fucose, Antigen and Galectin.

His Molecular biology research incorporates elements of P-selectin, Complementary DNA, Sialyl-Lewis X, N-Acetylneuraminic acid and Mucin. Richard D. Cummings has researched Glycoprotein in several fields, including Glycolipid and Epigenetics. His P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 research includes elements of Tyrosine sulfation, Tyrosine, Ligand and Selectin, Cell adhesion molecule.

His most cited work include:

  • Essentials of Glycobiology (2537 citations)
  • Galectins: a family of animal beta-galactoside-binding lectins. (986 citations)
  • Printed covalent glycan array for ligand profiling of diverse glycan binding proteins (925 citations)

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

Richard D. Cummings mainly investigates Biochemistry, Glycan, Glycoprotein, Molecular biology and Cell biology. His study in Biochemistry concentrates on Lectin, Glycoconjugate, Glycosylation, Sialic acid and Oligosaccharide. The concepts of his Glycan study are interwoven with issues in Epitope, Immunology, Antigen and DNA microarray.

Richard D. Cummings interconnects Tn antigen, Antibody, Schistosoma mansoni and Virology in the investigation of issues within Antigen. His work deals with themes such as Chinese hamster ovary cell, Recombinant DNA, Glycosyltransferase, Glycopeptide and Mannose, which intersect with Glycoprotein. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1, Affinity chromatography, Sialyl-Lewis X and Ligand.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (47.69%)
  • Glycan (38.45%)
  • Glycoprotein (19.64%)

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

  • Glycan (38.45%)
  • Glycosylation (12.87%)
  • Cell biology (14.19%)

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

Richard D. Cummings mostly deals with Glycan, Glycosylation, Cell biology, Computational biology and Antibody. Glycan is a subfield of Biochemistry that Richard D. Cummings investigates. His research integrates issues of Missense mutation, Pathogenesis, Downregulation and upregulation, Gene and Glycoprotein in his study of Glycosylation.

His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Spleen, Adoptive cell transfer, Tn antigen and Innate immune system. His Computational biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glycobiology and Genomics. As part of the same scientific family, Richard D. Cummings usually focuses on Antibody, concentrating on Molecular biology and intersecting with B cell.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • IFN-γ-independent immune markers of Mycobacterium tuberculosis exposure. (78 citations)
  • Mucin glycans attenuate the virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in infection. (40 citations)
  • Generation of fully functional hepatocyte-like organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells mixed with Endothelial Cells. (40 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Glycan, Glycosylation, Antibody, Computational biology and Sialic acid. The study incorporates disciplines such as DNA microarray, Cell adhesion, Secretion and Microbiology in addition to Glycan. His Glycosylation research focuses on Glycoprotein and how it relates to Host-virus interaction, Host cell surface and Zika virus.

His research in Antibody intersects with topics in Recombinant DNA, Antigen, Molecular biology, Peanut agglutinin and Tuberculosis. His Sialic acid study is concerned with Biochemistry in general. His study connects Human lung and Biochemistry.
