Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Histone, Chromatin, Molecular biology and Acetylation. His work on Biochemistry deals in particular with Amino acid, Cell nucleus, RNA, High-mobility group and Alanine. His Histone research incorporates elements of Sodium butyrate and Cell biology.

His work deals with themes such as Transcription and Phosphorylation, which intersect with Chromatin. Vincent G. Allfrey works mostly in the field of Phosphorylation, limiting it down to concerns involving Nuclear protein and, occasionally, Distribution. The study incorporates disciplines such as Lymphocyte proliferation and In vivo in addition to Molecular biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Studies of Nuclear Acidic Proteins EVIDENCE FOR THEIR PHOSPHORYLATION, TISSUE SPECIFICITY, SELECTIVE BINDING TO DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID, AND STIMULATORY EFFECTS ON TRANSCRIPTION (438 citations)
  • Suppression of histone deacetylation in vivo and in vitro by sodium butyrate. (394 citations)
  • Butyrate suppression of histone deacetylation leads to accumulation of multiacetylated forms of histones H3 and H4 and increased DNase I sensitivity of the associated DNA sequences (367 citations)

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

Vincent G. Allfrey mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Histone, Molecular biology, Chromatin and DNA. His works in Nuclear protein, Amino acid, Cell nucleus, Histone H2A and Histone code are all subjects of inquiry into Biochemistry. His Histone study incorporates themes from RNA, Acetylation and Cell biology.

Vincent G. Allfrey has included themes like Methylation, Physarum polycephalum, Sperm, Transcription and In vivo in his Molecular biology study. His studies deal with areas such as Biophysics and Physarum as well as Chromatin. His research in DNA intersects with topics in Nucleotide, Cyclic nucleotide and Binding site.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (63.33%)
  • Histone (44.17%)
  • Molecular biology (35.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1984-2006)?

  • Histone (44.17%)
  • Nucleosome (16.67%)
  • Chromatin (34.17%)

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

Vincent G. Allfrey mostly deals with Histone, Nucleosome, Chromatin, Molecular biology and Histone H3. His Histone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as High-mobility group, Nuclear protein and Protein species. Electron microscopic, Tetramer and Higher Order Chromatin Structure is closely connected to Biophysics in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Nucleosome.

He interconnects Gene expression, Transcription, DNA and Cell nucleus in the investigation of issues within Molecular biology. His Histone H3 study introduces a deeper knowledge of Biochemistry. Vincent G. Allfrey regularly links together related areas like Malignancy in his Biochemistry studies.

Between 1984 and 2006, his most popular works were:

  • Affinity chromatographic purification of nucleosomes containing transcriptionally active DNA sequences. (131 citations)
  • Rapid and reversible changes in nucleosome structure accompany the activation, repression, and superinduction of murine fibroblast protooncogenes c-fos and c-myc. (99 citations)
  • Dihydrotestosterone as a Selective Cellular/Nuclear Localization Vector for Anti-Gene Peptide Nucleic Acid in Prostatic Carcinoma Cells (67 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Vincent G. Allfrey mainly investigates Molecular biology, Chromatin, Gene expression, Transcription and Nucleosome. Vincent G. Allfrey combines subjects such as Promoter, Cancer research, Gene and Cell with his study of Molecular biology. His study focuses on the intersection of Chromatin and fields such as Direct repeat with connections in the field of Transcriptionally active chromatin and DNA.

His Gene expression research includes elements of Cell culture, Peptide nucleic acid and Cell nucleus. His Transcription study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Transcription factor, TATA box, TATA-Box Binding Protein, TATA-binding protein and Response element. His Nucleosome research also covers Biochemistry and Histone studies.
