Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Her main research concerns Biochemistry, Enzyme, Stereochemistry, Active site and Aspergillus niger. Glycoside hydrolase, Amylase, Hydrolase, Alpha-amylase and Oligosaccharide are the primary areas of interest in her Biochemistry study. Her study on Enzyme also encompasses disciplines like

  • Starch that intertwine with fields like Glucan,
  • Carbohydrate which connect with Glycosylation.

She interconnects Crystallography, Substrate, Enzyme kinetics, Aspergillus awamori and Maltose in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry. Her Active site research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Acarbose, Polysaccharide, Protein engineering, Isozyme and Binding site. Her Aspergillus niger study combines topics in areas such as Protein primary structure, Threonine, Protease, Proteolysis and RNA splicing.

Her most cited work include:

  • Recent Advances in Carbohydrate Bioengineering (549 citations)
  • Relationship of sequence and structure to specificity in the α-amylase family of enzymes (542 citations)
  • Protein engineering in the alpha-amylase family: catalytic mechanism, substrate specificity, and stability. (392 citations)

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

Birte Svensson mostly deals with Biochemistry, Enzyme, Stereochemistry, Active site and Amylase. Her Glycoside hydrolase, Starch, Thioredoxin, Isozyme and Aspergillus niger study are her primary interests in Biochemistry. Her research in Enzyme is mostly focused on Alpha-amylase.

Her research in Stereochemistry intersects with topics in Mutant, Substrate, Enzyme kinetics, Hydrolysis and Maltose. The various areas that she examines in her Active site study include Hydrolase and Binding site. Birte Svensson combines topics linked to Subtilisin with her work on Amylase.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (59.25%)
  • Enzyme (23.82%)
  • Stereochemistry (18.65%)

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

  • Biochemistry (59.25%)
  • Enzyme (23.82%)
  • Glycoside hydrolase (10.82%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Enzyme, Glycoside hydrolase, Starch and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Birte Svensson works mostly in the field of Biochemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Microbiology and, in certain cases, Protein moonlighting. Her Enzyme research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hydrolysis, Food science and Galactose.

Her studies deal with areas such as Prebiotic, Hydrolase, Pullulanase, Subfamily and Stereochemistry as well as Glycoside hydrolase. Her work carried out in the field of Starch brings together such families of science as Arabinoxylan and Starch binding. Her Active site research integrates issues from Limit dextrinase, Substrate and Binding site.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • α-Amylase: an enzyme specificity found in various families of glycoside hydrolases. (170 citations)
  • Ten years of CAZypedia: a living encyclopedia of carbohydrate-active enzymes (79 citations)
  • Zn vacancy as a polaronic hole trap in ZnO (37 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Glycoside hydrolase, Enzyme, Starch and Lactobacillus acidophilus. Her work in Active site, Binding site, Polysaccharide, Proteome and Hydrolase are all subfields of Biochemistry research. Her research integrates issues of Stereochemistry, Conserved sequence, Bifidobacterium animalis and Enzyme specificity in her study of Glycoside hydrolase.

Her study in Enzyme is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Galactosidases, Glycosyl, Bifidobacterium longum and Galactose. Her Starch research focuses on Starch binding and how it connects with Polypeptide chain and SBDS. Birte Svensson combines subjects such as Oxidative phosphorylation, Mucin and Microbiology with her study of Lactobacillus acidophilus.
