Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Organic chemistry

Catherine Lapierre focuses on Biochemistry, Lignin, Cell wall, Arabidopsis and Mutant. Caffeic acid, Cinnamoyl-CoA reductase, Monolignol, Phenylpropanoid and Ferulic acid are subfields of Biochemistry in which her conducts study. Her Lignin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ether and Cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, Caffeate O-methyltransferase.

Her Cell wall study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Coleoptile, Aleurone, Bran and Coniferyl alcohol. The study incorporates disciplines such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Acyltransferase, Wild type and Endodermis in addition to Arabidopsis. Catherine Lapierre combines subjects such as Laccase and Gene family with her study of Mutant.

Her most cited work include:

  • Flavonoid Accumulation in Arabidopsis Repressed in Lignin Synthesis Affects Auxin Transport and Plant Growth (399 citations)
  • Polymeric proanthocyanidins are catabolized by human colonic microflora into low-molecular-weight phenolic acids. (380 citations)
  • Silencing of hydroxycinnamoyl-coenzyme A shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyltransferase affects phenylpropanoid biosynthesis. (357 citations)

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

Catherine Lapierre mostly deals with Lignin, Biochemistry, Cell wall, Organic chemistry and Botany. The various areas that Catherine Lapierre examines in her Lignin study include Cellulose, Monolignol, Polymer, Ferulic acid and Caffeic acid. Her research related to Cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, Mutant, Arabidopsis, Cinnamoyl-CoA reductase and Phenylpropanoid might be considered part of Biochemistry.

Her Mutant study incorporates themes from Brachypodium distachyon and Brachypodium. Her work on Secondary cell wall as part of general Cell wall research is often related to Composition, thus linking different fields of science. Her study in the field of Forage is also linked to topics like Salicaceae.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Lignin (75.92%)
  • Biochemistry (37.96%)
  • Cell wall (26.53%)

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

  • Lignin (75.92%)
  • Cell wall (26.53%)
  • Biochemistry (37.96%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Lignin, Cell wall, Biochemistry, Brachypodium distachyon and Brachypodium. Her research in Lignin intersects with topics in Hydrolysis, Ferulic acid and Monolignol. Catherine Lapierre interconnects Arabidopsis thaliana and Transferase in the investigation of issues within Monolignol.

Her work deals with themes such as Biophysics, Acetyl bromide, Xylem and Polysaccharide, which intersect with Cell wall. Her study in Mutant and Cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase is carried out as part of her studies in Biochemistry. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biofuel, Cellulosic ethanol and Computational biology.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Improved saccharification and ethanol yield from field-grown transgenic poplar deficient in cinnamoyl-CoA reductase. (141 citations)
  • Application of New Methods for the Investigation of Lignin Structure (123 citations)
  • Lignin structure and its engineering (113 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Organic chemistry

Catherine Lapierre mainly investigates Lignin, Brachypodium distachyon, Brachypodium, Biochemistry and Monolignol. Her Lignin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrolysis and Reductase. Her study focuses on the intersection of Brachypodium distachyon and fields such as Mutant with connections in the field of Cellulosic ethanol, Biofuel, Biotechnology and Arabinoxylan.

Her Brachypodium research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Arabidopsis and Computational biology. Her work focuses on many connections between Monolignol and other disciplines, such as Transferase, that overlap with her field of interest in Acyltransferase, Phenylpropanoid and Acyltransferases. Her Organic chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Cell wall and Natural variation.
