Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Calpain, Cell biology and Skeletal muscle. The concepts of his Biochemistry study are interwoven with issues in P3 peptide and Amyloid precursor protein. His work deals with themes such as Immunostaining, Complementary DNA, Messenger RNA, COS cells and ITGA7, which intersect with Molecular biology.

Shoichi Ishiura combines subjects such as Cysteine protease, Protein subunit, Autolysis, Peptide sequence and Binding site with his study of Calpain. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Proteolysis, Mutant, Immunoprecipitation and Transmembrane protein. His Skeletal muscle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Myocyte and Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure and physiological function of calpains (646 citations)
  • Immunostaining of skeletal and cardiac muscle surface membrane with antibody against Duchenne muscular dystrophy peptide. (486 citations)
  • The VNTR polymorphism of the human dopamine transporter (DAT1) gene affects gene expression. (374 citations)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Cell biology, Amyloid precursor protein and Skeletal muscle. Enzyme, Protease, Proteases, Proteolysis and Intracellular are among the areas of Biochemistry where Shoichi Ishiura concentrates his study. The various areas that Shoichi Ishiura examines in his Molecular biology study include Protein subunit, Complementary DNA, Calpain, COS cells and Myotonic dystrophy.

His research in Calpain intersects with topics in Peptide sequence and Calcium. Cell biology is often connected to Cleavage in his work. His Amyloid precursor protein study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peptide and Senile plaques.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (33.80%)
  • Molecular biology (32.68%)
  • Cell biology (22.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2018)?

  • Molecular biology (32.68%)
  • Cell biology (22.54%)
  • Genetics (11.27%)

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

His primary areas of study are Molecular biology, Cell biology, Genetics, Alternative splicing and Biochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Protein subunit, HEK 293 cells, Enhancer, Presenilin and splice as well as Molecular biology. His Cell biology research includes elements of Oxidative stress, Internal medicine, Dopamine, Endocrinology and Programmed cell death.

His work on Gene, Variable number tandem repeat, genomic DNA and Intron as part of general Genetics study is frequently linked to Benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His research on Alternative splicing also deals with topics like

  • RNA splicing which connect with Exon,
  • Myotonic dystrophy and related Muscular dystrophy, ATPase and Skeletal muscle. His Biochemistry research includes themes of P3 peptide and Amyloid precursor protein.

Between 2010 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Expansions of intronic TTTCA and TTTTA repeats in benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy. (121 citations)
  • Expansions of intronic TTTCA and TTTTA repeats in benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy. (121 citations)
  • Splicing misregulation of SCN5A contributes to cardiac-conduction delay and heart arrhythmia in myotonic dystrophy (90 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Shoichi Ishiura mostly deals with Molecular biology, Gene, Genetics, Cell biology and Intron. By researching both Molecular biology and Small nuclear RNA, Shoichi Ishiura produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His studies in Gene integrate themes in fields like Myotonic dystrophy and Epilepsy.

When carried out as part of a general Genetics research project, his work on Cell cycle, Cell division and Cell cycle checkpoint is frequently linked to work in Topoisomerase inhibitor, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Metabolism. His Intron research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of genomic DNA, DNA Repeat Expansion, Trinucleotide repeat expansion and Sequence analysis.
