Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Richard G. Cook spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Histone, Histone code and Histone H3. Peptide sequence, Lysine, Protein primary structure, Cytoplasm and Endothelial stem cell are the primary areas of interest in his Biochemistry study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Isotype, T cell, Complementary DNA, Chromatin and Major histocompatibility complex in addition to Molecular biology.

His Histone code study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Histone methyltransferase, Histone octamer, Histone H1, Cell biology and Histone methylation. His Histone methylation study which covers EZH2 that intersects with Epigenomics and Histone arginine methylation. His research integrates issues of Histone H4, PCAF and Tetrahymena in his study of Histone H3.

His most cited work include:

  • Human PAD4 regulates histone arginine methylation levels via demethylimination. (766 citations)
  • Cloning of GMP-140, a granule membrane protein of platelets and endothelium: sequence similarity to proteins involved in cell adhesion and inflammation. (732 citations)
  • Transcription-linked acetylation by Gcn5p of histones H3 and H4 at specific lysines (508 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Peptide sequence, Antigen and Genetics. His study involves Amino acid, Peptide, Tetrahymena, Histone and Acetylation, a branch of Biochemistry. Richard G. Cook has included themes like Complementary DNA, Gene, Major histocompatibility complex, Northern blot and Monoclonal antibody in his Molecular biology study.

His Peptide sequence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Binding protein, Sequence analysis and Homology. The various areas that Richard G. Cook examines in his Antigen study include Cell, T cell, Glycoprotein, Cytotoxic T cell and Antibody. In his research on the topic of Histone H4, Histone octamer and EZH2 is strongly related with Histone code.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (54.26%)
  • Molecular biology (51.60%)
  • Peptide sequence (30.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1998-2013)?

  • Biochemistry (54.26%)
  • Molecular biology (51.60%)
  • Genetics (15.96%)

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

Richard G. Cook mainly investigates Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Genetics, Edman degradation and Histone code. Biochemistry is represented through his Peptide, Acetylation, Phosphorylation, Amino acid and Peptide sequence research. His work deals with themes such as STAT3, Histone H2A, Growth factor receptor and Histone H1, which intersect with Molecular biology.

As part of the same scientific family, Richard G. Cook usually focuses on Edman degradation, concentrating on Trypsin and intersecting with Peptide bond and Complementary DNA. Richard G. Cook has researched Histone code in several fields, including Histone H4, Histone methyltransferase, Histone methylation and Cell biology. The concepts of his Histone methylation study are interwoven with issues in EZH2 and Histone octamer.

Between 1998 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Human PAD4 regulates histone arginine methylation levels via demethylimination. (766 citations)
  • Set2 Is a Nucleosomal Histone H3-Selective Methyltransferase That Mediates Transcriptional Repression (460 citations)
  • Methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 is highly conserved and correlates with transcriptionally active nuclei in Tetrahymena (443 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Richard G. Cook mostly deals with Biochemistry, Histone code, Histone methyltransferase, Histone H3 and Histone. His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Potassium channel. In his study, Molecular biology and X-inactivation is inextricably linked to Histone H4, which falls within the broad field of Histone code.

His Histone methyltransferase study combines topics in areas such as EZH2, Histone methylation and Cell biology. His EZH2 research incorporates elements of Epigenomics and Histone arginine methylation. His Histone H3 study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Histone acetyltransferase and PCAF.
