Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Mitosis

His main research concerns Mitosis, Cell biology, Microtubule, Biochemistry and Molecular biology. His Mitosis research focuses on subjects like Survivin, which are linked to Sequence analysis and Function. His Cell biology research incorporates elements of G2-M DNA damage checkpoint, Cell cycle checkpoint, Midbody, Centrosome and Kinetochore.

He studies Microtubule, focusing on Tubulin in particular. His study focuses on the intersection of Tubulin and fields such as Biophysics with connections in the field of Genetics, GTP', Bovine brain, Bioinformatics and Binding site. The Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Centromere protein B, Histone, Centromere localization, Nucleosome and Epitope.

His most cited work include:

  • Distinct specificity in the recognition of phosphoinositides by the pleckstrin homology domains of dynamin and Bruton's tyrosine kinase. (503 citations)
  • Opposite end assembly and disassembly of microtubules at steady state in vitro (484 citations)
  • PRC1 is a microtubule binding and bundling protein essential to maintain the mitotic spindle midzone (352 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Microtubule, Mitosis, Tubulin and Biophysics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cell cycle checkpoint, Cell cycle, Anaphase, Spindle checkpoint and Molecular biology in addition to Cell biology. His Microtubule research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microtubule nucleation, Biochemistry, GTP' and Calmodulin.

He combines subjects such as G2-M DNA damage checkpoint, Mitotic exit, Centrosome and Metaphase with his study of Mitosis. His Tubulin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cytoplasm and Binding site. His Biophysics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Centrifugation and Bovine brain.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (60.00%)
  • Microtubule (45.56%)
  • Mitosis (37.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2016)?

  • Cell biology (60.00%)
  • Mitosis (37.78%)
  • Spindle checkpoint (10.00%)

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

Robert L. Margolis mainly focuses on Cell biology, Mitosis, Spindle checkpoint, Molecular biology and Kinetochore. Robert L. Margolis interconnects Metaphase, G2-M DNA damage checkpoint, Cell cycle checkpoint, Mitotic exit and Spindle pole body in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His research on Mitosis frequently links to adjacent areas such as Cancer research.

His research in Spindle checkpoint intersects with topics in Prometaphase, Anaphase and Genetics. His research integrates issues of Cell cycle and In vitro in his study of Molecular biology. His work focuses on many connections between BUB1 and other disciplines, such as Chromosome Positioning, that overlap with his field of interest in Microtubule.

Between 2001 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • PRC1 is a microtubule binding and bundling protein essential to maintain the mitotic spindle midzone (352 citations)
  • G1 tetraploidy checkpoint and the suppression of tumorigenesis. (194 citations)
  • In vitro screening for inhibitors of the human mitotic kinesin Eg5 with antimitotic and antitumor activities (185 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Mitosis

Cell biology, Mitosis, Spindle pole body, Cell cycle checkpoint and Spindle midzone are his primary areas of study. His Cell biology study often links to related topics such as Spindle checkpoint. His Mitosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metaphase, ATPase, In vitro, G2-M DNA damage checkpoint and Molecular biology.

His Spindle pole body study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cleavage furrow, Midbody, Mitotic spindle midzone, Mitotic spindle organization and Centralspindlin. His Cell cycle checkpoint study combines topics in areas such as Centrosome duplication, Centrosome cycle, Centrosome, Pocket protein family and Mitotic catastrophe. His Spindle midzone research integrates issues from Prometaphase, Multipolar spindles, Aurora B kinase and Central spindle.
