Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Alan M. Myers focuses on Genetics, Biochemistry, Starch, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Gene. His work in Genetics tackles topics such as Molecular biology which are related to areas like Sequence analysis and Gene family. His work on Mitochondrial fission, Mitochondrion and Mitochondrial DNA as part of general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to ATP–ADP translocase and Apoptosis-inducing factor, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His work carried out in the field of Starch brings together such families of science as Complementary DNA, Endosperm and Transposon tagging. His Saccharomyces cerevisiae study incorporates themes from Mutation and Nuclear gene. His studies in Genome evolution, Ploidy, Transposable element, Gene mapping and Retrotransposon are all subfields of Gene research.

His most cited work include:

  • The B73 Maize Genome: Complexity, Diversity, and Dynamics (3021 citations)
  • Yeast/E. coli shuttle vectors with multiple unique restriction sites (1133 citations)
  • Yeast shuttle and integrative vectors with multiple cloning sites suitable for construction of lacZ fusions. (483 citations)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Starch, Mutant, Genetics and Endosperm. His Starch research incorporates elements of Amyloplast, Glucan and Arabidopsis. His work on Wild type is typically connected to Pseudohyphal growth as part of general Mutant study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His research on Genetics frequently links to adjacent areas such as Molecular biology. His work in Endosperm addresses issues such as Chloroplast, which are connected to fields such as Fusion protein. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Branching and Granule.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (64.42%)
  • Starch (40.38%)
  • Mutant (31.73%)

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

  • Biochemistry (64.42%)
  • Endosperm (28.85%)
  • Starch (40.38%)

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

Biochemistry, Endosperm, Starch, Starch synthase and Mutant are his primary areas of study. His Biochemistry study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Botany. The Endosperm study combines topics in areas such as Storage protein, Glycolysis, Amyloplast, Cell biology and Chloroplast.

His research investigates the connection with Starch and areas like Enzyme which intersect with concerns in Function and Stereochemistry. He has included themes like Degree of polymerization, Maize starch and Polysaccharide in his Starch synthase study. Alan M. Myers studies Mutant, namely Wild type.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Functional Interactions between Starch Synthase III and Isoamylase-Type Starch-Debranching Enzyme in Maize Endosperm (71 citations)
  • Functions of Multiple Genes Encoding ADP-Glucose Pyrophosphorylase Subunits in Maize Endosperm, Embryo, and Leaf (47 citations)
  • Molecular structure of starches from maize mutants deficient in starch synthase III. (25 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Mutant, Starch, Endosperm and Isoamylase. His study looks at the intersection of Biochemistry and topics like Molecule with Wild type. His Starch synthase study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phytoglycogen, Glycogen debranching enzyme and Homomeric.

He interconnects Arabidopsis thaliana, Protein primary structure, Arabidopsis and Function in the investigation of issues within Enzyme. His Amylopectin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Granule and Botany. Chloroplast is a subfield of Gene that Alan M. Myers studies.
