Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Genetics
  • Biochemistry

Biophysics, Microtubule, Cell biology, Myosin and Actin are his primary areas of study. His Biophysics study also includes fields such as

  • Biochemistry together with Motor protein,
  • Binding site together with Microtubule-associated protein. His work deals with themes such as Protein structure and Helix, which intersect with Microtubule.

His Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tip link, Hair cell and PCDH15. His research in Myosin is mostly focused on Myosin head. His study looks at the relationship between Kinesin and fields such as Molecular motor, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure of the actin-myosin complex and its implications for muscle contraction. (1444 citations)
  • Self-assembling organic nanotubes based on a cyclic peptide architecture (1234 citations)
  • The way things move: looking under the hood of molecular motor proteins. (1147 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Microtubule, Biophysics, Cell biology, Tubulin and Kinesin. In his study, Plasma protein binding is inextricably linked to Protein structure, which falls within the broad field of Microtubule. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biochemistry and Actin.

His Actin research focuses on subjects like Microfilament, which are linked to Tropomyosin. His study on Kinesin 13 is often connected to Microtubule sliding as part of broader study in Kinesin. Ronald A. Milligan combines subjects such as Brush border, Molecular motor, Anatomy and Motility with his study of Myosin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microtubule (37.90%)
  • Biophysics (31.45%)
  • Cell biology (28.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Microtubule (37.90%)
  • Cell biology (28.23%)
  • Biophysics (31.45%)

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

His main research concerns Microtubule, Cell biology, Biophysics, Tubulin and Microtubule nucleation. His Microtubule research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protein structure, Binding domain and Mitosis. The Pleckstrin homology domain research Ronald A. Milligan does as part of his general Cell biology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as NDC80 and Ndc80 complex, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His study in Biophysics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biochemistry and GTPase. His work in the fields of Biochemistry, such as Actin and Plasma protein binding, intersects with other areas such as Lethocerus. When carried out as part of a general Kinesin research project, his work on Kinesin 13 is frequently linked to work in Microtubule sliding, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Insights into antiparallel microtubule crosslinking by PRC1, a conserved nonmotor microtubule binding protein. (202 citations)
  • Structure and Functional Role of Dynein’s Microtubule-Binding Domain (186 citations)
  • A Pseudoatomic Model of the Dynamin Polymer Identifies a Hydrolysis-Dependent Powerstroke (163 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Genetics
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Microtubule, Cell biology, Microtubule nucleation, Biophysics and Ndc80 complex. Specifically, his work in Cell biology is concerned with the study of Tubulin. His Tubulin research incorporates themes from DNA ligase and Enzyme.

Ronald A. Milligan has included themes like Biochemistry, Effector, Helix and G-domain in his Biophysics study. His work carried out in the field of Biochemistry brings together such families of science as Dynein, Dynein ATPase and Cilium. The study incorporates disciplines such as Astral microtubules and NDC80 in addition to Ndc80 complex.
