Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

Susan G. Amara mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Glutamate aspartate transporter, Dopamine, Dopamine transporter and Transporter. Her Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biophysics, TAAR1 and Cell biology. Susan G. Amara studied Cell biology and Translation that intersect with Calcitonin gene-related peptide and Calcitonin.

Her Glutamate aspartate transporter study incorporates themes from Amino acid, Glutamate Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins, Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 3 and Complementary DNA. Her study looks at the relationship between Dopamine transporter and topics such as Neurotransmitter transporter, which overlap with Norepinephrine Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins. Her study in Transporter is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neurotoxin and Electrophysiology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Production of a novel neuropeptide encoded by the calcitonin gene via tissue-specific RNA processing (2044 citations)
  • Alternative RNA processing in calcitonin gene expression generates mRNAs encoding different polypeptide products (1820 citations)
  • An excitatory amino-acid transporter with properties of a ligand-gated chloride channel. (1033 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Transporter, Glutamate receptor, Cell biology and Amino acid. Her Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biophysics and Dopamine. Susan G. Amara studies Dopamine transporter which is a part of Transporter.

Her work in Glutamate receptor covers topics such as Extracellular which are related to areas like Mutant. Susan G. Amara combines subjects such as Calcitonin, Retina, Messenger RNA and Calcitonin gene-related peptide with her study of Cell biology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glutamate Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins and Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 3 in addition to Glutamate aspartate transporter.

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Glutamate receptor, Biophysics, Transporter and Amino acid. Her study connects Dopamine and Biochemistry. Her studies in Glutamate receptor integrate themes in fields like Protein structure and Transmembrane domain.

Her Biophysics study which covers Dopamine Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins that intersects with Dopamine transport, Citalopram, Serotonin, Serotonin Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins and Serotonin transporter. Her Transporter study combines topics in areas such as Xenopus, Membrane protein, Binding site and Cell biology. Her studies deal with areas such as Excitatory postsynaptic potential and Amino acid transporter as well as Amino acid.

Between 2007 and 2019, her most popular works were:

  • A call for transparent reporting to optimize the predictive value of preclinical research (800 citations)
  • Membrane Cholesterol Modulates the Outward Facing Conformation of the Dopamine Transporter and Alters Cocaine Binding (101 citations)
  • Effects of threo‐β‐hydroxyaspartate derivatives on excitatory amino acid transporters (EAAT4 and EAAT5) (86 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

Susan G. Amara mostly deals with Neurotransmission, Dopamine transporter, Glutamatergic, Dopamine and Glutamate receptor. Her Neurotransmission research integrates issues from Amphetamine, Dopaminergic, D1-like receptor, Neuroscience and Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 3. Her Dopamine transporter study incorporates themes from Integral membrane protein, Lipid bilayer, Cell membrane and Membrane lipids.

Her studies in Dopamine integrate themes in fields like Serotonin transporter, Serotonin Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins, Citalopram and Serotonin. The various areas that Susan G. Amara examines in her Glutamate receptor study include Excitatory postsynaptic potential, Nervous system, Aspartic acid, Chloride channel and Glutamic acid. Her Excitatory postsynaptic potential research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Amino acid, Transporter and Stereochemistry.
