Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Phosphorylation

Roger J. Colbran mainly investigates Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, Autophosphorylation, Biochemistry, Calmodulin and Phosphorylation. To a larger extent, Roger J. Colbran studies Cell biology with the aim of understanding Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Calcium, NMDA receptor, Receptor, Long-term potentiation and Cytoskeleton.

His Autophosphorylation research integrates issues from Phosphatase and Kinase activity. In Biochemistry, Roger J. Colbran works on issues like G alpha subunit, which are connected to Peptide, Sodium dodecyl sulfate and Alanine. His work deals with themes such as Facilitation, Molecular biology, Binding site and L-type calcium channel, which intersect with Phosphorylation.

His most cited work include:

  • A dynamic pathway for calcium-independent activation of CaMKII by methionine oxidation (795 citations)
  • Calmodulin kinase II inhibition protects against structural heart disease (490 citations)
  • Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. (454 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Phosphorylation and Neuroscience. His work carried out in the field of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase brings together such families of science as Synaptic plasticity, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Calmodulin and Autophosphorylation. He usually deals with Cell biology and limits it to topics linked to L-type calcium channel and Scaffold protein.

His research in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Molecular biology which are related to areas like Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase. His research integrates issues of Programmed cell death and Intracellular in his study of Phosphorylation. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Glutamate receptor, Long-term potentiation and Neurotransmission.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (60.76%)
  • Cell biology (46.84%)
  • Biochemistry (37.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (60.76%)
  • Cell biology (46.84%)
  • Neuroscience (26.58%)

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

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, Cell biology, Neuroscience, Synaptic plasticity and Phosphorylation are his primary areas of study. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase is a subfield of Biochemistry that Roger J. Colbran tackles. His Cell biology study frequently links to other fields, such as Calmodulin.

His studies deal with areas such as Glutamate receptor, NMDA receptor, Endocannabinoid system and Neurotransmission as well as Neuroscience. Roger J. Colbran interconnects Hippocampal formation and Calcium signaling in the investigation of issues within Synaptic plasticity. His Phosphorylation research includes elements of β subunit and Programmed cell death.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • CaMKII: a molecular substrate for synaptic plasticity and memory (93 citations)
  • Substrate-selective COX-2 inhibition decreases anxiety via endocannabinoid activation (89 citations)
  • Genetic Disruption of 2-Arachidonoylglycerol Synthesis Reveals a Key Role for Endocannabinoid Signaling in Anxiety Modulation (85 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Neuron

Roger J. Colbran spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, Autophosphorylation, Endocannabinoid system and Neurotransmission. Roger J. Colbran has included themes like NMDA receptor, Receptor, Glutamate receptor and Long-term potentiation in his Neuroscience study. His Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase research entails a greater understanding of Phosphorylation.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular biology, Binding site and Postsynaptic density. His Endocannabinoid system research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glutamatergic, Signal transduction and Drug discovery. His Synaptic plasticity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plasma protein binding, Cell biology and Calmodulin.
