Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

Andrew W. B. Johnston focuses on Biochemistry, Rhizobium leguminosarum, Escherichia coli, Dimethylsulfoniopropionate and Gene. His research on Biochemistry frequently links to adjacent areas such as Microbiology. Andrew W. B. Johnston combines subjects such as Rhizobia and Operon with his study of Rhizobium leguminosarum.

His Escherichia coli research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Dimethyl sulfide and Alcohol dehydrogenase. His Dimethylsulfoniopropionate research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Catabolism and Marine bacteriophage. His Gene study introduces a deeper knowledge of Genetics.

His most cited work include:

  • The genome of Rhizobium leguminosarum has recognizable core and accessory components (463 citations)
  • Structural and Regulatory Genes Required to Make the Gas Dimethyl Sulfide in Bacteria (199 citations)
  • Catabolism of dimethylsulphoniopropionate: microorganisms, enzymes and genes. (190 citations)

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

Andrew W. B. Johnston mainly investigates Rhizobium leguminosarum, Gene, Biochemistry, Microbiology and Bacteria. He has included themes like Operon, Transcription, Mutant, Rhizobium and Siderophore in his Rhizobium leguminosarum study. His research on Gene concerns the broader Genetics.

Andrew W. B. Johnston combines topics linked to Dimethylsulfoniopropionate with his work on Biochemistry. As part of the same scientific family, Andrew W. B. Johnston usually focuses on Microbiology, concentrating on Metagenomics and intersecting with Aldehyde dehydrogenase and Alcohol. His Bacteria study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Bacterial genetics, Whole genome sequencing and Botany.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Rhizobium leguminosarum (45.65%)
  • Gene (43.48%)
  • Biochemistry (41.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2019)?

  • Biochemistry (41.30%)
  • Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (20.65%)
  • Bacteria (28.26%)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Dimethylsulfoniopropionate, Bacteria, Dimethyl sulfide and Microbiology. His study in Dimethylsulfoniopropionate is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Catabolism, Enzyme, Marine bacteriophage, Microbial ecology and Plankton. Andrew W. B. Johnston has researched Bacteria in several fields, including Periplasmic space, Gene, Whole genome sequencing and ATP-binding cassette transporter.

His Gene research is within the category of Genetics. His Dimethyl sulfide study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Dinoflagellate and Phytoplankton. His study in Microbiology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Methylamine and Identification.

Between 2008 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Catabolism of dimethylsulphoniopropionate: microorganisms, enzymes and genes. (190 citations)
  • The dddP gene, encoding a novel enzyme that converts dimethylsulfoniopropionate into dimethyl sulfide, is widespread in ocean metagenomes and marine bacteria and also occurs in some Ascomycete fungi (111 citations)
  • Molecular dissection of bacterial acrylate catabolism--unexpected links with dimethylsulfoniopropionate catabolism and dimethyl sulfide production. (90 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Dimethylsulfoniopropionate, Biochemistry, Dimethyl sulfide, Marine bacteriophage and Bacteria. His work deals with themes such as Microbiology, Enzyme, Gene, Escherichia coli and Microbial ecology, which intersect with Dimethylsulfoniopropionate. His research integrates issues of Secondary metabolite, Sequence alignment and Metagenomics in his study of Microbiology.

His Gene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Catabolism and Substrate. The study incorporates disciplines such as Catabolite repression, Lyase, Cofactor and Alcohol dehydrogenase in addition to Escherichia coli. His work on Periplasmic space expands to the thematically related Bacteria.
