Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Ross Jakes spends much of his time researching Tau protein, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology and Alpha-synuclein. His Tau protein research includes themes of Amino acid, Peptide sequence and Hyperphosphorylation, Phosphorylation. His Biochemistry research integrates issues from Microtubule-associated protein, Beta-synuclein, Gamma-synuclein and Synuclein Family.

Ross Jakes has included themes like Enzyme activator, SB 203580 and Gene isoform in his Molecular biology study. His Alpha-synuclein research incorporates elements of Lewy body, Wild type, Mutant and Pathogenesis. His Lewy body study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dementia with Lewy bodies and Glial cytoplasmic inclusion.

His most cited work include:

  • α-Synuclein in Lewy bodies (5545 citations)
  • Multiple isoforms of human microtubule-associated protein tau: sequences and localization in neurofibrillary tangles of Alzheimer's disease (1759 citations)
  • Identification of two distinct synucleins from human brain (844 citations)

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

Ross Jakes mainly investigates Tau protein, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Cell biology and Alpha-synuclein. His research in Tau protein intersects with topics in Epitope, Microtubule-associated protein and Phosphorylation. His study explores the link between Molecular biology and topics such as Peptide sequence that cross with problems in Complementary DNA and Sequence analysis.

His study looks at the intersection of Cell biology and topics like Anatomy with Biophysics and In vitro. His study in Alpha-synuclein is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lewy body and Dementia with Lewy bodies. His Beta-synuclein research incorporates themes from Gamma-synuclein, Synuclein Family and Glial cytoplasmic inclusion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Tau protein (41.57%)
  • Biochemistry (37.08%)
  • Molecular biology (24.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2017)?

  • Dementia with Lewy bodies (13.48%)
  • Tau protein (41.57%)
  • Molecular biology (24.72%)

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

Ross Jakes mostly deals with Dementia with Lewy bodies, Tau protein, Molecular biology, Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 and Biochemistry. His work deals with themes such as Protein filament, Parkinson's disease, Alpha-synuclein and Cell biology, which intersect with Dementia with Lewy bodies. Alpha-synuclein is a primary field of his research addressed under Pathology.

His study focuses on the intersection of Tau protein and fields such as Gene isoform with connections in the field of Phosphorylation. His Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mutation, Microtubule-associated protein, Plasma protein binding and Genetics. When carried out as part of a general Biochemistry research project, his work on Neurite, Fibril, MAP2K7 and c-Raf is frequently linked to work in P70-S6 Kinase 1, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Between 2001 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Abundant Tau Filaments and Nonapoptotic Neurodegeneration in Transgenic Mice Expressing Human P301S Tau Protein (504 citations)
  • Biophysical Properties of the Synucleins and Their Propensities to Fibrillate INHIBITION OF α-SYNUCLEIN ASSEMBLY BY β- AND γ-SYNUCLEINS (376 citations)
  • Mutations causing neurodegenerative tauopathies. (296 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Ross Jakes focuses on Tauopathy, Fibril, Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17, Tau protein and Biochemistry. The concepts of his Tauopathy study are interwoven with issues in Frontotemporal dementia, Mutation, Corticobasal degeneration, Parkinsonism and Neuroscience. Ross Jakes interconnects Crystallography, Random coil, Protein folding and Protein structure, Beta sheet in the investigation of issues within Fibril.

His study on Frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 is covered under Neurodegeneration. His Tau protein study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Colocalization and Gene isoform. His work carried out in the field of Biochemistry brings together such families of science as Dementia with Lewy bodies, Mutation and Cell biology.
