Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Ryuichiro Ishitani spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Protein structure, Genetics, RNA and Thermus thermophilus. His Biochemistry study frequently links to related topics such as Stereochemistry. As part of one scientific family, Ryuichiro Ishitani deals mainly with the area of Protein structure, narrowing it down to issues related to the Transmembrane protein, and often Ion channel, Membrane protein and Periplasmic space.

His research ties Computational biology and Genetics together. Ryuichiro Ishitani has included themes like Plasma protein binding, Transferase, Crystallography, Endoplasmic reticulum membrane and Transmembrane domain in his Thermus thermophilus study. His Protospacer adjacent motif research includes themes of Heteroduplex, Crystal structure, Endonuclease, CRISPR/Cpf1 and Nuclease.

His most cited work include:

  • Crystal structure of Cas9 in complex with guide RNA and target DNA (1175 citations)
  • Crystal Structure of the Complex of Human Epidermal Growth Factor and Receptor Extracellular Domains. (953 citations)
  • Crystal Structure of Cas9 in Complex with Guide RNA and Target DNA (713 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Crystallography, Stereochemistry, Transfer RNA and Biophysics. His Crystallography research incorporates themes from Thermus thermophilus and Escherichia coli. In his work, Cas9 is strongly intertwined with Crystal structure, which is a subfield of Stereochemistry.

The Transfer RNA study combines topics in areas such as Translation, Genetic code, Nucleotide and Transferase. His research investigates the connection between Biophysics and topics such as Transporter that intersect with issues in Molecular dynamics and Cell biology. His work in Protein structure tackles topics such as Transmembrane domain which are related to areas like Transport protein.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (30.71%)
  • Crystallography (22.86%)
  • Stereochemistry (22.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Biophysics (18.57%)
  • Cell biology (10.00%)
  • Stereochemistry (22.14%)

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

Ryuichiro Ishitani spends much of his time researching Biophysics, Cell biology, Stereochemistry, Biochemistry and Binding site. The various areas that Ryuichiro Ishitani examines in his Biophysics study include Membrane protein, Channelrhodopsin, Chaperone, Protein structure and Oligopeptide. His Cell biology research includes elements of Subgenomic mRNA, Protein domain, Transcription factor and Transporter.

His studies examine the connections between Transporter and genetics, as well as such issues in Botany, with regards to Crystal structure. His Stereochemistry study also includes

  • Autotaxin which intersects with area such as Active ingredient,
  • Crystallography together with Search engine indexing. In his research, Ryuichiro Ishitani performs multidisciplinary study on Biochemistry and Corynebacterium.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cap-specific terminalN6-methylation of RNA by an RNA polymerase II-associated methyltransferase. (113 citations)
  • Crystal structure of Escherichia coli YidC, a membrane protein chaperone and insertase (75 citations)
  • Data processing pipeline for serial femtosecond crystallography at SACLA (55 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Biochemistry, Adenosine triphosphate, Plasma protein binding and Protein structure. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Transporter, Protein domain, Translation, Messenger RNA and WW domain. His work on In vitro, Choline and Phosphodiesterase as part of general Biochemistry research is often related to Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase and Phosphocholine, thus linking different fields of science.

His studies deal with areas such as Signal transduction and Binding site as well as Adenosine triphosphate. His Protein structure research incorporates themes from Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Membrane transport protein, Chaperone and Transmembrane domain. He interconnects Molecular engineering, Microbiology, Transmembrane protein and Membrane protein, Translocon in the investigation of issues within Biophysics.
