Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Heterochromatin, Heterochromatin assembly, Heterochromatin protein 1 and Euchromatin. Shiv I. S. Grewal works mostly in the field of Genetics, limiting it down to topics relating to Cell biology and, in certain cases, Histone H1, as a part of the same area of interest. His Heterochromatin study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as RNA interference.

As part of the same scientific family, Shiv I. S. Grewal usually focuses on Heterochromatin assembly, concentrating on Cohesin and intersecting with Prophase and Mating-type region. Histone methyltransferase is closely connected to Histone code in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of EZH2. His work focuses on many connections between Chromatin and other disciplines, such as Histone, that overlap with his field of interest in Transcription factor, Position-effect variegation, Fungal protein and Epigenetics.

His most cited work include:

  • Regulation of heterochromatic silencing and histone H3 lysine-9 methylation by RNAi. (1818 citations)
  • Role of Histone H3 Lysine 9 Methylation in Epigenetic Control of Heterochromatin Assembly (1421 citations)
  • RNAi-mediated targeting of heterochromatin by the RITS complex. (1063 citations)

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

Shiv I. S. Grewal mainly focuses on Genetics, Heterochromatin, Heterochromatin assembly, Heterochromatin protein 1 and Chromatin. His Schizosaccharomyces pombe, EZH2, RNA-induced transcriptional silencing, Gene and Epigenetics investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. The study incorporates disciplines such as Histone methyltransferase and Histone code in addition to EZH2.

His Heterochromatin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in RNA interference, Histone and Cell biology. He has researched Heterochromatin assembly in several fields, including Mating of yeast and Cohesin. His studies in Heterochromatin protein 1 integrate themes in fields like Histone methylation and Constitutive heterochromatin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (77.89%)
  • Heterochromatin (64.21%)
  • Heterochromatin assembly (38.95%)

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

  • Heterochromatin (64.21%)
  • Genetics (77.89%)
  • Heterochromatin assembly (38.95%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Heterochromatin, Genetics, Heterochromatin assembly, Heterochromatin protein 1 and Cell biology. He interconnects RNA interference and RNA-binding protein in the investigation of issues within Heterochromatin. His study focuses on the intersection of Heterochromatin assembly and fields such as Cohesin with connections in the field of Homologous chromosome and Genetic model.

His Heterochromatin protein 1 study frequently links to related topics such as Euchromatin. His Cell biology research includes themes of Regulation of gene expression and Gene expression. His Chromatin study which covers Epigenetics that intersects with Histone, DNA replication, Nucleosome and Heterochromatin maintenance.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Enhancer of Rudimentary Cooperates with Conserved RNA-Processing Factors to Promote Meiotic mRNA Decay and Facultative Heterochromatin Assembly. (47 citations)
  • SNF2 Family Protein Fft3 Suppresses Nucleosome Turnover to Promote Epigenetic Inheritance and Proper Replication. (45 citations)
  • Taz1-Shelterin Promotes Facultative Heterochromatin Assembly at Chromosome-Internal Sites Containing Late Replication Origins. (43 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

Shiv I. S. Grewal focuses on Heterochromatin protein 1, Heterochromatin, Genetics, Euchromatin and Histone. His Heterochromatin protein 1 research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Enhancer, RNA interference, CCR4-NOT complex and RNA-binding protein. His work on RNA-induced transcriptional silencing and Heterochromatin assembly as part of general RNA interference research is frequently linked to Exoribonuclease, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His research integrates issues of Telomere, Origin of replication, Replication timing and Shelterin in his study of Euchromatin. His Histone research includes elements of Chromatin, Molecular biology, Spindle checkpoint and Schizosaccharomyces. The Chromatin study combines topics in areas such as Epigenetics and DNA replication.
