Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

Sergei M. Mirkin mainly investigates Genetics, DNA, DNA replication, Molecular biology and Tandem repeat. His Genetics and Repeated sequence, Human genome, Replication factor C, Minichromosome maintenance and Control of chromosome duplication investigations all form part of his Genetics research activities. His work carried out in the field of DNA brings together such families of science as Stereochemistry and Palindrome.

Sergei M. Mirkin has included themes like DNA clamp, DNA polymerase I, Base pair and DNA polymerase II in his DNA replication study. His Molecular biology research focuses on Plasmid and how it connects with Gel electrophoresis and Crystallography. In his work, Genetic code, Constitutive heterochromatin and Methanococcus is strongly intertwined with Direct repeat, which is a subfield of Tandem repeat.

His most cited work include:

  • Expandable DNA repeats and human disease (694 citations)
  • Triplex DNA Structures (580 citations)
  • Replication Fork Stalling at Natural Impediments (390 citations)

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

Sergei M. Mirkin focuses on Genetics, DNA, DNA replication, Molecular biology and Transcription. Sergei M. Mirkin works in the field of DNA, focusing on Plasmid in particular. His work on Replication factor C as part of his general DNA replication study is frequently connected to DNA Repeat Expansion, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

Sergei M. Mirkin combines subjects such as Polymerase, DNA supercoil, Biophysics, Escherichia coli and Cell biology with his study of Molecular biology. His study in Transcription is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both RNA and Promoter, Response element, Gene expression. His research investigates the connection with Control of chromosome duplication and areas like Origin recognition complex which intersect with concerns in Minichromosome maintenance and Origin of replication.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (50.43%)
  • DNA (46.96%)
  • DNA replication (36.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Genetics (50.43%)
  • DNA replication (36.52%)
  • Genome instability (13.04%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, DNA replication, Genome instability, DNA and DNA repair. Many of his research projects under Genetics are closely connected to Microsatellite with Microsatellite, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His study in the field of Flap endonuclease also crosses realms of Flap structure-specific endonuclease 1.

As a part of the same scientific family, Sergei M. Mirkin mostly works in the field of Genome instability, focusing on Mutagenesis and, on occasion, Untranslated region, Repeated sequence, Mutation rate, Quantitative analysis and Yeast. The DNA study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology and Nucleotide. His DNA repair research incorporates themes from R-loop, Genome, Base pair, Computational biology and DNA sequencing.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • On the wrong DNA track: Molecular mechanisms of repeat-mediated genome instability (49 citations)
  • The role of break-induced replication in large-scale expansions of (CAG)n/(CTG)n repeats (42 citations)
  • Phosphate steering by Flap Endonuclease 1 promotes 5′-flap specificity and incision to prevent genome instability (35 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His primary areas of study are DNA replication, DNA, DNA repair, Genome instability and Genetics. Sergei M. Mirkin usually deals with DNA replication and limits it to topics linked to Genome and R-loop, Chromatin, Computational biology and Control of chromosome duplication. His research in DNA intersects with topics in Molecular biology, Nucleotide and Binding site.

His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like RNA, RNase P, RNase H, Flap endonuclease and Transcription. Sergei M. Mirkin has researched Genome instability in several fields, including Genetic analysis, Gene, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and RAD52. Many of his studies on Genetics apply to MUS81 as well.
