Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Glutathione, Ribonuclease III and RNase P are his primary areas of study. His studies in Biochemistry integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology, Biophysics and Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. His work focuses on many connections between Stereochemistry and other disciplines, such as Active site, that overlap with his field of interest in Enzyme kinetics, Multiple isomorphous replacement, Protein secondary structure and Protein structure.

Xinhua Ji has researched Glutathione in several fields, including Nitric oxide, Transferase, Kinase and Pharmacology. The Transferase study combines topics in areas such as Protein primary structure and Binding site. His Ribonuclease III study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aquifex aeolicus, RNase MRP, Catalytic complex, Dicer and RNase PH.

His most cited work include:

  • Structure determination and refinement of human alpha class glutathione transferase A1-1, and a comparison with the Mu and Pi class enzymes. (352 citations)
  • The three-dimensional structure of a glutathione S-transferase from the Mu gene class. Structural analysis of the binary complex of isoenzyme 3-3 and glutathione at 2.2-.ANG. resolution (320 citations)
  • Crystallographic and Modeling Studies of RNase III Suggest a Mechanism for Double-Stranded RNA Cleavage (214 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Crystallography, Crystal structure and Enzyme. His study in Stereochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transferase, Glutathione, Active site and Molecule, Hydrogen bond. Xinhua Ji combines subjects such as Molecular biology and RNase P with his study of Biochemistry.

His Crystallography research integrates issues from Aquifex aeolicus, Ligand, Aptamer, Salt and Riboswitch. As a member of one scientific family, Xinhua Ji mostly works in the field of Crystal structure, focusing on Ribonuclease III and, on occasion, Double stranded rna and RNA silencing. His work investigates the relationship between Enzyme and topics such as Hydroxymethyl that intersect with problems in Catalytic cycle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (39.66%)
  • Biochemistry (31.28%)
  • Crystallography (22.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (31.28%)
  • Cell biology (7.82%)
  • Molecular biology (8.38%)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Riboswitch and Aptamer. His research investigates the connection between Biochemistry and topics such as RNase P that intersect with issues in Non-coding RNA and Ribonuclease III. His Riboswitch study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crystallography and Ligand.

His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Lyase, Active site, Protein Data Bank, Hydrogen bond and Tetramer. In his works, Xinhua Ji undertakes multidisciplinary study on Bound state and Stereochemistry. Xinhua Ji has included themes like Transition state analog, Antimicrobial and Pterin in his Stereochemistry study.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Structures of riboswitch RNA reaction states by mix-and-inject XFEL serial crystallography (145 citations)
  • Growth arrest by the antitumor steroidal lactone withaferin a in human breast cancer cells is associated with down-regulation and covalent binding at cysteine 303 of β-tubulin (79 citations)
  • Structure of a eukaryotic RNase III postcleavage complex reveals a double-ruler mechanism for substrate selection. (30 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • DNA
  • Amino acid

Xinhua Ji spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Cell biology, Glutathione and Glutathione S-transferase. The various areas that Xinhua Ji examines in his Biochemistry study include Ribonuclease III and RNase P, RNase PH, RNase H, RNase MRP. His Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Cytidine deaminase activity, APOBEC3G and Murine leukemia virus.

His Cell biology research includes themes of Duplex, DDX3X, RNA silencing, Rna processing and Dead box helicase. His Glutathione research incorporates elements of Nitric oxide, Dinitrophenyl and DNA damage. His work deals with themes such as Cruciferous vegetables, Cysteine, Isothiocyanate and Transferase, which intersect with Glutathione S-transferase.
