Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of investigation include Endoplasmic reticulum, Cell biology, Sec61, Biochemistry and Membrane protein. His research in Endoplasmic reticulum intersects with topics in Membrane, Membrane contact site, Secretory protein and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Tom A. Rapoport interconnects Integral membrane protein and Membrane transport protein in the investigation of issues within Cell biology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Heterotrimeric G protein, SEC Translocation Channels, Signal recognition particle and Conserved sequence. His Biochemistry research includes themes of Ribosome, Biophysics, SEC63 and Signal peptide. Within one scientific family, Tom A. Rapoport focuses on topics pertaining to SEC61 Translocon under Biophysics, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Thermotoga maritima.

His most cited work include:

  • A Linear Steady‐State Treatment of Enzymatic Chains (1141 citations)
  • X-ray structure of a protein-conducting channel (1054 citations)
  • Sec61-mediated transfer of a membrane protein from the endoplasmic reticulum to the proteasome for destruction. (1030 citations)

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

Tom A. Rapoport spends much of his time researching Endoplasmic reticulum, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics and Membrane protein. His Endoplasmic reticulum study incorporates themes from Membrane, Sec61 and Signal recognition particle, Signal peptide. Transport protein is the focus of his Cell biology research.

His Ribosome research extends to the thematically linked field of Biochemistry. His work carried out in the field of Biophysics brings together such families of science as Crystallography, SecY protein, Plasma protein binding and Transmembrane domain. Tom A. Rapoport has researched Membrane protein in several fields, including Reticulon and Lipid bilayer fusion.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Endoplasmic reticulum (53.14%)
  • Cell biology (51.26%)
  • Biochemistry (46.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Cell biology (51.26%)
  • Endoplasmic reticulum (53.14%)
  • Biophysics (33.33%)

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

Tom A. Rapoport mainly investigates Cell biology, Endoplasmic reticulum, Biophysics, Biochemistry and Membrane protein. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Peroxisome and Cytosol. In the field of Endoplasmic reticulum, his study on STIM1 overlaps with subjects such as Xenopus.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Transport protein, ATPase, Secretory protein, SecY protein and Membrane in addition to Biophysics. In his study, Glycosylation is strongly linked to Bacterial adhesin, which falls under the umbrella field of Biochemistry. His Membrane protein research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Protein structure and Lipid droplet.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mechanisms of Sec61/SecY-Mediated Protein Translocation Across Membranes (269 citations)
  • Stacked Endoplasmic Reticulum Sheets Are Connected by Helicoidal Membrane Motifs (151 citations)
  • Structural Analysis and Optimization of the Covalent Association between SpyCatcher and a Peptide Tag. (140 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Endoplasmic reticulum, Biophysics, Biochemistry and Membrane protein. His Cell biology research integrates issues from ERMES complex, Cell division, Translocon and Transmembrane protein. His work on STIM1 as part of general Endoplasmic reticulum research is frequently linked to Atlastin, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Biophysics research incorporates themes from Transport protein, Amino acid, ATP hydrolysis, ATPase and Secretory protein. The study incorporates disciplines such as SEC Translocation Channels, Sec61 and Signal peptide in addition to Transport protein. His Membrane protein research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Reticulon, Membrane curvature and Protein structure.
