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, Sarcophaga peregrina, Molecular biology, Complementary DNA and Hemolymph. In his research, Shunji Natori undertakes multidisciplinary study on Biochemistry and CD69. Shunji Natori combines subjects such as Lectin, Antibacterial agent, Bacteria, Flesh fly and Sarcophaga with his study of Sarcophaga peregrina.

Shunji Natori interconnects DNA-binding protein, Gene, Antibody, RNA polymerase II and Peptide in the investigation of issues within Molecular biology. In his work, Protein primary structure, G alpha subunit, ATP synthase alpha/beta subunits and Signal peptide is strongly intertwined with Nucleic acid sequence, which is a subfield of Complementary DNA. The Hemolymph study combines topics in areas such as Binding protein, Molecular mass and Larva.

His most cited work include:

  • Purification of three antibacterial proteins from the culture medium of NIH-Sape-4, an embryonic cell line of Sarcophaga peregrina. (182 citations)
  • Purification of lectin induced in the hemolymph of Sarcophaga peregrina larvae on injury. (165 citations)
  • Expression of amylase and glucose oxidase in the hypopharyngeal gland with an age-dependent role change of the worker honeybee (Apis mellifera L.). (143 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Sarcophaga peregrina, RNA polymerase II and Gene. His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as RNA polymerase I, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, Transcription, DNA and Complementary DNA. His Complementary DNA research incorporates elements of Nucleic acid sequence and Peptide sequence.

His Biochemistry study is mostly concerned with Hemolymph, Escherichia coli, Enzyme, RNA and In vitro. His work carried out in the field of Sarcophaga peregrina brings together such families of science as Lectin, Antibacterial agent, Storage protein, Flesh fly and Sarcophaga. His RNA polymerase II study also includes fields such as

  • Transcription factor II D which intersects with area such as RNA polymerase II holoenzyme and Termination factor,
  • General transcription factor together with Transcription factor II B.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (54.51%)
  • Biochemistry (48.07%)
  • Sarcophaga peregrina (38.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2021)?

  • Molecular biology (54.51%)
  • Biochemistry (48.07%)
  • Sarcophaga peregrina (38.20%)

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

Shunji Natori mainly investigates Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Sarcophaga peregrina, Gene and Sarcophaga. His research in Molecular biology intersects with topics in Cell culture, Binding protein, Gene expression, Drosophila melanogaster and Complementary DNA. His studies deal with areas such as Ankyrin, Protease, Cathepsin L, Flesh fly and Cell biology as well as Sarcophaga peregrina.

Within one scientific family, Shunji Natori focuses on topics pertaining to Lectin under Gene, and may sometimes address concerns connected to MASP1. His Sarcophaga study combines topics in areas such as Metamorphosis and Period. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular cloning, Insect, Larva and Blot.

Between 1996 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Expression of amylase and glucose oxidase in the hypopharyngeal gland with an age-dependent role change of the worker honeybee (Apis mellifera L.). (143 citations)
  • A newly established in vitro culture using transgenic Drosophila reveals functional coupling between the phospholipase A2-generated fatty acid cascade and lipopolysaccharide-dependent activation of the immune deficiency (imd) pathway in insect immunity (83 citations)
  • Identification of a novel gene, Mblk-1, that encodes a putative transcription factor expressed preferentially in the large-type Kenyon cells of the honeybee brain. (62 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Peptide sequence, Gene and Complementary DNA are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Molecular biology study include Xenopus, Sarcophaga peregrina, Sarcophaga, RNA polymerase II and Peptide. Shunji Natori connects Sarcophaga peregrina with Proteinase 3 in his research.

His study in Hemolymph, Binding site, AMP deaminase, Growth factor and Signal transduction are all subfields of Biochemistry. His Peptide sequence research incorporates themes from Differential display, Mushroom bodies and Transcription factor. He has researched Complementary DNA in several fields, including Amino acid, Sequence analysis and Amylase, Enzyme.
