Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

Tohru Minamino mostly deals with Cell biology, Flagellum, Biochemistry, Cytoplasm and Flik. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Membrane protein, Protein Export, Basal body and Flagellin. His study focuses on the intersection of Flagellin and fields such as Protein filament with connections in the field of Escherichia coli.

Tohru Minamino has included themes like Biophysics, Cryo-electron microscopy, Chemiosmosis and Random hexamer in his Flagellum study. In his study, Self-assembly is strongly linked to Chaperone, which falls under the umbrella field of Cytoplasm. His Flik research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Plasma protein binding and Motility.

His most cited work include:

  • Components of the Salmonella Flagellar Export Apparatus and Classification of Export Substrates (302 citations)
  • Distinct roles of the FliI ATPase and proton motive force in bacterial flagellar protein export (226 citations)
  • Interactions among components of the Salmonella flagellar export apparatus and its substrates. (192 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Flagellum, Biophysics, Cell biology, Cytoplasm and Mutant. His Flagellum study improves the overall literature in Biochemistry. His Biophysics research incorporates elements of Periplasmic space, Organelle and Microbiology.

In the subject of general Cell biology, his work in Chaperone is often linked to Hook, thereby combining diverse domains of study. The Cytoplasm study which covers Chemiosmosis that intersects with Antiporter. He combines subjects such as Mutation, Amino acid, Membrane protein and Random hexamer with his study of Mutant.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Flagellum (63.64%)
  • Biophysics (41.56%)
  • Cell biology (45.45%)

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

  • Flagellum (63.64%)
  • Biophysics (41.56%)
  • Cytoplasm (37.66%)

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

His main research concerns Flagellum, Biophysics, Cytoplasm, Transmembrane protein and Protein filament. His Basal body study in the realm of Flagellum connects with subjects such as Motor protein. The Biophysics study combines topics in areas such as Proton channel and Organelle.

His Cytoplasm study contributes to a more complete understanding of Cell biology. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Flik under Cell biology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cleavage. His Mutant research includes elements of Conformational change and Chemiosmosis.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Flagella-Driven Motility of Bacteria. (68 citations)
  • Tree of motility : A proposed history of motility systems in the tree of life (25 citations)
  • Structural Insights into the Substrate Specificity Switch Mechanism of the Type III Protein Export Apparatus. (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of investigation include Flagellum, Biophysics, Protein filament, Transmembrane protein and Cytoplasm. Tohru Minamino has researched Flagellum in several fields, including Motility and Cell biology. He focuses mostly in the field of Motility, narrowing it down to topics relating to Organelle and, in certain cases, Cryo-electron microscopy, Salmonella enterica and Flagellin.

His work in the fields of Cell biology, such as Myosin and Actin, intersects with other areas such as Motor protein, Dynein and Context. His research investigates the link between Biophysics and topics such as Basal body that cross with problems in Protein subunit and Transport protein. The concepts of his Mutant study are interwoven with issues in Cleavage and Conformational change.
