Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Ronald C. Conaway focuses on RNA polymerase II, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Protein subunit and Transcription factor. His study in RNA polymerase II is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both MED1, General transcription factor, Transcription and Transcription factor II D. In his study, Chromatin remodeling, Transcriptional regulation and Multiprotein complex is strongly linked to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which falls under the umbrella field of Cell biology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Von Hippel–Lindau tumor suppressor, HeLa, Histone acetyltransferase and Cullin Proteins in addition to Molecular biology. The various areas that he examines in his Protein subunit study include Plasma protein binding and Ubiquitin. His Transcription factor research includes elements of Peptide sequence, Hypoxia-inducible factors and G alpha subunit.

His most cited work include:

  • Activation of HIF1α ubiquitination by a reconstituted von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor complex (561 citations)
  • The Elongin BC complex interacts with the conserved SOCS-box motif present in members of the SOCS, ras, WD-40 repeat, and ankyrin repeat families (543 citations)
  • Biochemical purification and pharmacological inhibition of a mammalian prolyl hydroxylase acting on hypoxia-inducible factor (531 citations)

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

Ronald C. Conaway mainly investigates RNA polymerase II, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Transcription and Transcription factor II D. His RNA polymerase II research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Protein subunit, Transcription factor, Mediator and General transcription factor. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Chromatin, Nucleosome and Ubiquitin, Ubiquitin ligase.

His research investigates the link between Molecular biology and topics such as Helicase that cross with problems in Transcription factor II H. His studies deal with areas such as RNA and DNA repair as well as Transcription. His Transcription factor II D research integrates issues from Transcription factor II A, Transcription factor II B, Transcription factor II F and RNA polymerase II holoenzyme.

He most often published in these fields:

  • RNA polymerase II (81.06%)
  • Cell biology (74.24%)
  • Molecular biology (61.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Cell biology (74.24%)
  • RNA polymerase II (81.06%)
  • Transcription (40.15%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, RNA polymerase II, Transcription, Mediator and RNA. Ronald C. Conaway combines subjects such as Enhancer, Histone, Nucleosome and Ubiquitin with his study of Cell biology. His RNA polymerase II research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chromatin and Protein subunit.

His Transcription research also works with subjects such as

  • Schizosaccharomyces pombe which intersects with area such as Transcription factor, DNA polymerase II, Bioinformatics and General transcription factor,
  • Schizosaccharomyces that intertwine with fields like Protein structure. His Mediator study combines topics in areas such as Regulator and MED26. His CUL5 research focuses on Nucleotide excision repair and how it connects with Molecular biology.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Mediator structure and rearrangements required for holoenzyme formation (86 citations)
  • Mediator structure and rearrangements required for holoenzyme formation (86 citations)
  • Regulation of the RNAPII Pool Is Integral to the DNA Damage Response. (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Cell biology, RNA polymerase II, Transcription, Histone and Histone acetyltransferase activity are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Protein domain and Structure–activity relationship, which intersect with Cell biology. The various areas that Ronald C. Conaway examines in his RNA polymerase II study include RNA, Transcriptome, Genome instability, Developmental biology and DNA repair.

His Transcription research includes themes of Ubiquitin, DNA damage, Bioinformatics, Protein subunit and Mediator. His Histone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as H3K4me3, Chromatin and Methylation. Ronald C. Conaway interconnects NSL complex, Molecular biology and Transferase in the investigation of issues within Histone acetyltransferase activity.
