  • Calpastatin (27.89%)
  • Calpain (40.14%)
  • Molecular biology (28.57%)

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

Takashi Murachi mainly investigates Calpastatin, Calpain, Molecular biology, Biochemistry and Chromatography. His Calpastatin research incorporates themes from Biophysics, Inhibitor protein, Blot, EGTA and Calcium-binding protein. His studies in Calpain integrate themes in fields like Proteoglycan, Cartilage, In vivo and Cell biology.

His research integrates issues of Cell culture, Protein subunit, Enzyme inhibitor and Ischemia in his study of Molecular biology. Complementary DNA, Peptide sequence, Conserved sequence, Arginase and Enzyme are among the areas of Biochemistry where Takashi Murachi concentrates his study. The various areas that Takashi Murachi examines in his Chromatography study include Immobilized enzyme, Multiple forms and Pig brain.

Between 1988 and 1992, his most popular works were:

  • Intracellular regulatory system involving calpain and calpastatin. (152 citations)
  • Inhibition of calpain by a synthetic oligopeptide corresponding to an exon of the human calpastatin gene. (130 citations)
  • cDNA cloning of human calpastatin: sequence homology among human, pig, and rabbit calpastatins. (62 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Takashi Murachi focuses on Biochemistry, Calpain, Calpastatin, Molecular biology and Peptide sequence. His Biochemistry and Enzyme, Protein kinase A, Cytosol, Inhibitor protein and Phosphorylation investigations all form part of his Biochemistry research activities. His Calpain research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Serine, Calcium-binding protein, Regulation of gene expression, Cartilage and Phosphopeptide.

His study in Calpastatin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Blot, Internal medicine, Rheumatoid arthritis and Kinase, Cell biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Complementary DNA, Neurofilament, Protease and Sodium. His Peptide sequence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nucleic acid sequence, Intracellular and Cell membrane.
