Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Spindle apparatus, Microtubule, Mitosis and Kinetochore. His Cell biology research includes themes of Spindle checkpoint, Spindle pole body and Aurora B kinase. His Spindle pole body study incorporates themes from Astral microtubules and Dynein.

His Microtubule research includes elements of Microtubule nucleation, Cilium, ATPase and KIF15. In his study, Tubulin is inextricably linked to Centrosome separation, which falls within the broad field of KIF15. His Mitosis research focuses on subjects like Anaphase, which are linked to Cell division and Cytokinesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Small Molecule Inhibitor of Mitotic Spindle Bipolarity Identified in a Phenotype-Based Screen (1436 citations)
  • The bipolar mitotic kinesin Eg5 moves on both microtubules that it crosslinks (514 citations)
  • Microtubule attachment and spindle assembly checkpoint signalling at the kinetochore (429 citations)

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

Tarun M. Kapoor mostly deals with Cell biology, Microtubule, Spindle apparatus, Mitosis and Kinesin. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Chromosome segregation, Spindle checkpoint, Kinetochore, Anaphase and Spindle pole body. His Microtubule research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Microtubule nucleation and Biophysics.

His study looks at the relationship between Spindle apparatus and topics such as Meiosis, which overlap with Anatomy. His research integrates issues of Cohesin, Cell division and Centrosome separation in his study of Mitosis. His Kinesin research incorporates elements of ATP hydrolysis, Spindle matrix, Allosteric regulation and Binding site.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (66.23%)
  • Microtubule (50.33%)
  • Spindle apparatus (35.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Microtubule (50.33%)
  • Cell biology (66.23%)
  • Tubulin (12.58%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Microtubule, Cell biology, Tubulin, Biophysics and AAA proteins. His research in Microtubule intersects with topics in Spindle midzone, Allosteric regulation and Spindle elongation. Tarun M. Kapoor combines Cell biology and Transcription preinitiation complex in his studies.

His Tubulin study incorporates themes from Crystallography, Microtubule nucleation, Function and Actin. His Biophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Processivity, Polynucleotide and RNA polymerase. The AAA proteins study combines topics in areas such as Mutation, Mutant, Docking and Protein family.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Structural basis for helicase-polymerase coupling in the SARS-CoV-2 replication-transcription complex (96 citations)
  • Asymmetric Molecular Architecture of the Human γ-Tubulin Ring Complex (43 citations)
  • High-resolution imaging reveals how the spindle midzone impacts chromosome movement (25 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Tarun M. Kapoor spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Microtubule, Tubulin, Actin and Microtubule nucleation. By researching both Cell biology and Spastin, Tarun M. Kapoor produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His Microtubule research integrates issues from Chromosome movement, Microtubule bundle and Spindle midzone, Spindle elongation, Chromosome segregation.

Tarun M. Kapoor usually deals with Tubulin and limits it to topics linked to Structural protein and Biophysics. In Biophysics, Tarun M. Kapoor works on issues like Processivity, which are connected to Helicase and RNA. His AAA proteins research incorporates themes from Mutation, Chemical biology, Mutant, Protein family and Microtubule severing.
