Biotin and Related Studies

Biotin and Related Studies is a research topic within Cell Biology. Science Explorer counts 19k research works in it since 1950. 14.6% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on proximity-dependent protein labeling techniques, such as BioID and TurboID, to identify protein-protein interactions and map spatial proteomes within living cells. The use of biotin, streptavidin, and avidin-based systems for enzymatic tagging and proximity labeling is a central theme in these studies, particularly in the context of investigating cellular interactomes and organelle-specific proteomes.

How concentrated that is

The same countries as shares of everything the list above accounts for. A node where two countries do two thirds of the work and one spread evenly across twelve read alike as a ranking and not at all alike here.
