In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Terry L. Orr-Weaver spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Genetics, Embryo, DNA replication and Origin recognition complex.
His study connects Polyadenylation and Cell biology.
All of his Genetics and Genome, Gene, DNA re-replication, Aurora B kinase and Polyploid investigations are sub-components of the entire Genetics study.
His Embryo research also works with subjects such as
- Proteome and related Thioredoxin, Totipotent and Drosophila Protein,
- Anaphase-promoting complex that intertwine with fields like Immunoprecipitation, Activator, Cdc20 Proteins and Polo kinase.
As a member of one scientific family, Terry L. Orr-Weaver mostly works in the field of DNA replication, focusing on DNA repair and, on occasion, Origin of replication and G2-M DNA damage checkpoint.
His Origin recognition complex study incorporates themes from General transcription factor, Pre-replication complex, Control of chromosome duplication, Licensing factor and E-box.
Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- When bigger is better: the role of polyploidy in organogenesis. (151 citations)
