Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Molecular biology, DNA, Transfer RNA and Stereochemistry. His work in the fields of Escherichia coli, Enzyme and Base pair overlaps with other areas such as 8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as DNA glycosylase, Reactive oxygen species and Mutant, Gene, Transfection.

In his study, Oral administration and Peroxisome is strongly linked to Carcinogen, which falls under the umbrella field of DNA. His studies examine the connections between Transfer RNA and genetics, as well as such issues in Ribosome, with regards to Mitochondrion, Gene targeting, Protein biosynthesis and Aminoacylation. His work carried out in the field of Stereochemistry brings together such families of science as Plasma protein binding, Ribose, Binding site and A-DNA.

His most cited work include:

  • 8-Hydroxyguanine, an abundant form of oxidative DNA damage, causes G----T and A----C substitutions. (1557 citations)
  • Molecular switch for signal transduction: structural differences between active and inactive forms of protooncogenic ras proteins (855 citations)
  • Formation of 8-hydroxyguanine moiety in cellular DNA by agents producing oxygen radicals and evidence for its repair (838 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Transfer RNA, Molecular biology, Stereochemistry and DNA. His is involved in several facets of Biochemistry study, as is seen by his studies on Escherichia coli, Nucleic acid sequence, Enzyme, Guanine and Queuine. The concepts of his Transfer RNA study are interwoven with issues in Residue and Nucleotide.

His Molecular biology research includes elements of DNA glycosylase and Mutation, Gene, Mutant, Oligonucleotide. The various areas that Susumu Nishimura examines in his Stereochemistry study include Amino acid and Topoisomerase. His DNA research integrates issues from Carcinogenesis, Radical and Carcinogen.

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1995-2019)?

  • Biochemistry (44.62%)
  • Molecular biology (29.49%)
  • Stereochemistry (21.54%)

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

Susumu Nishimura mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Stereochemistry, Gene and Indolocarbazole. His study in Biochemistry concentrates on Enzyme, Transfer RNA, DNA, Escherichia coli and Lyase activity. His Transfer RNA research includes themes of Nucleotide, Guanine and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Oxidative stress, DNA glycosylase, Reactive oxygen species, Mutant and Complementary DNA. His studies in Stereochemistry integrate themes in fields like Peptide sequence, Group, Plasma protein binding and Binding site. His Indolocarbazole research incorporates themes from Topoisomerase, In vitro, Lethal dose and Chemotherapy.

Between 1995 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • The consensus motif for phosphorylation by cyclin D1-Cdk4 is different from that for phosphorylation by cyclin A/E-Cdk2. (522 citations)
  • Mmh/Ogg1 gene inactivation results in accumulation of 8-hydroxyguanine in mice (316 citations)
  • Cloning and Characterization of Mammalian 8-Hydroxyguanine-specific DNA Glycosylase/Apurinic, Apyrimidinic Lyase, a Functional mutM Homologue (307 citations)
