Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry
  • Gene

Colin Ratledge spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Microbiology, Microorganism, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Malic enzyme. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Mucor circinelloides. Colin Ratledge combines subjects such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobactin and Siderophore, Bacteria with his study of Microbiology.

The various areas that Colin Ratledge examines in his Microorganism study include Botany, Algae, Biotechnology and Lipid accumulation. His research in Polyunsaturated fatty acid intersects with topics in Food science and Fatty acid synthase. He studied Malic enzyme and Malate dehydrogenase that intersect with Isocitrate dehydrogenase and Cofactor.

His most cited work include:

  • Iron metabolism in pathogenic bacteria. (1198 citations)
  • Fatty acid biosynthesis in microorganisms being used for Single Cell Oil production. (833 citations)
  • The biochemistry and molecular biology of lipid accumulation in oleaginous microorganisms (695 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Microbiology, Enzyme, Mycobactin and Yeast. His research in Biochemistry focuses on subjects like Mycobacterium smegmatis, which are connected to Salicylic acid. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium, Bacteria.

In Mycobactin, Colin Ratledge works on issues like Siderophore, which are connected to Extracellular. His study looks at the relationship between Malic enzyme and fields such as Mucor circinelloides, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. In his work, Docosahexaenoic acid and Polyunsaturated fatty acid is strongly intertwined with Arachidonic acid, which is a subfield of Fatty acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (61.48%)
  • Microbiology (17.51%)
  • Enzyme (15.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2018)?

  • Biochemistry (61.48%)
  • Malic enzyme (10.51%)
  • Mucor circinelloides (8.17%)

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

Biochemistry, Malic enzyme, Mucor circinelloides, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Lipid metabolism are his primary areas of study. His is doing research in Lipid biosynthesis, Yarrowia, NAD+ kinase, Gene and Fatty acid, both of which are found in Biochemistry. His Mucor circinelloides research includes elements of Amino acid, Citric acid cycle and Dehydrogenase.

Colin Ratledge has researched Polyunsaturated fatty acid in several fields, including Biomass, Food science and Microorganism. Colin Ratledge has included themes like Genetics and Genome in his Lipid metabolism study. Colin Ratledge focuses mostly in the field of Microbiology, narrowing it down to matters related to Iron uptake and, in some cases, Mycobactin.

Between 2007 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Microbial and algal oils: Do they have a future for biodiesel or as commodity oils? (280 citations)
  • Biochemistry of microbial degradation (271 citations)
  • The role of malic enzyme as the provider of NADPH in oleaginous microorganisms: a reappraisal and unsolved problems (141 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry
  • Gene

Colin Ratledge mostly deals with Biochemistry, Yarrowia, Lipid biosynthesis, Lipid metabolism and Microorganism. Colin Ratledge integrates many fields, such as Biochemistry and Hemin, in his works. The Lipid biosynthesis study combines topics in areas such as Isocitrate dehydrogenase, Pentose phosphate pathway, Yeast, Fatty acid and Malic enzyme.

His work deals with themes such as Acetyl-CoA and ATP Citrate -Lyase, ATP citrate lyase, which intersect with Yeast. His Lipid metabolism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fungal genetics, Fatty acid synthesis and Genome. His Microorganism research incorporates elements of Biotechnology and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.
