Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Cyclooxygenase, Enzyme, Isozyme and Prostaglandin. His Molecular biology research extends to the thematically linked field of Biochemistry. His Cyclooxygenase research incorporates themes from Asparagine and Prostanoid.

His primary area of study in Enzyme is in the field of ATP synthase. The various areas that William L. Smith examines in his Isozyme study include Aspirin, Pharmacology, Nephrotoxicity and Cell biology. His study in Prostaglandin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thromboxane, Regulation of gene expression and Arachidonic acid.

His most cited work include:

  • Cyclooxygenases: Structural, cellular, and molecular biology (2358 citations)
  • Prostaglandin Endoperoxide H Synthases (Cyclooxygenases)-1 and −2 (1792 citations)
  • Differential inhibition of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (cyclooxygenase) isozymes by aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. (1160 citations)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Enzyme, Cyclooxygenase, Prostaglandin and ATP synthase. His Biochemistry research includes themes of Molecular biology and Stereochemistry. The concepts of his Enzyme study are interwoven with issues in Tyrosine and Mutant.

His studies deal with areas such as Microsome, Lipoxygenase and Epoxygenase as well as Cyclooxygenase. In his research, Biosynthesis is intimately related to Thromboxane, which falls under the overarching field of Prostaglandin. His work in ATP synthase tackles topics such as Heme binding which are related to areas like Amino acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (56.69%)
  • Enzyme (35.43%)
  • Cyclooxygenase (30.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1999-2010)?

  • Stereochemistry (19.69%)
  • Arachidonic acid (22.05%)
  • Biochemistry (56.69%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Stereochemistry, Arachidonic acid, Biochemistry, Enzyme and ATP synthase. William L. Smith has included themes like Oxidoreductase, Ligand and Active site in his Stereochemistry study. The various areas that he examines in his Arachidonic acid study include Cyclooxygenase and Polyunsaturated fatty acid, Linoleic acid, Fatty acid.

His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Biophysics. His study in the field of Isozyme is also linked to topics like Monomer. His ATP synthase research integrates issues from Radical and Hydrogen peroxide.

Between 1999 and 2010, his most popular works were:

  • Cyclooxygenases: Structural, cellular, and molecular biology (2358 citations)
  • Why there are two cyclooxygenase isozymes. (508 citations)
  • The Productive Conformation of Arachidonic Acid Bound to Prostaglandin Synthase (233 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

William L. Smith focuses on Enzyme, Stereochemistry, Arachidonic acid, Cyclooxygenase and Active site. Enzyme is the subject of his research, which falls under Biochemistry. His Arachidonic acid study combines topics in areas such as Peroxidase and Hydrogen atom abstraction.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Inflammation, Regulation of gene expression, Aspirin and Isozyme in addition to Cyclooxygenase. William L. Smith works mostly in the field of Active site, limiting it down to topics relating to Binding site and, in certain cases, Prostaglandin H2, Protein subunit, Dimer and Isothermal titration calorimetry. His Prostaglandin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Oxidoreductase, Fatty acid, Molecule, Oxygen and Pharmacology.
