Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Els J.M. Van Damme mainly investigates Biochemistry, Lectin, Glycan, Botany and Glycosylation. His Lectin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Amino acid, Cytoplasm and Fusion protein. He focuses mostly in the field of Glycan, narrowing it down to matters related to Mutation and, in some cases, Molecular biology.

His Botany research incorporates elements of Genetically modified crops, Plant defense against herbivory, Sambucus nigra and Nicotiana tabacum. His studies in Glycosylation integrate themes in fields like Discoidins, Glycoprotein and Protein folding. His Agglutinin study combines topics in areas such as Genetics, Jacalin, Mannose and Molecular evolution.

His most cited work include:

  • Plant lectins as defense proteins against phytophagous insects (207 citations)
  • Plant lectins are potent inhibitors of coronaviruses by interfering with two targets in the viral replication cycle. (133 citations)
  • Lectin domains at the frontiers of plant defense (131 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Lectin, Botany, Glycan and Agglutinin. His work in Biochemistry is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Molecular biology. His studies deal with areas such as Concanavalin A and Cell culture as well as Molecular biology.

His research integrates issues of Cytoplasm, Cell biology, Mannose and Nicotiana tabacum in his study of Lectin. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nicotiana, Spodoptera littoralis, Jasmonate and RNA in addition to Nicotiana tabacum. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Plant defense against herbivory and Sambucus nigra.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (52.31%)
  • Lectin (48.21%)
  • Botany (20.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Cell biology (13.33%)
  • Lectin (48.21%)
  • Brown planthopper (3.08%)

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

Els J.M. Van Damme spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Lectin, Brown planthopper, N-linked glycosylation and Glycosylation. The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Abscisic acid, Gene expression, Arabidopsis, Genome and RNA interference. His work is dedicated to discovering how Lectin, Cytoplasm are connected with Arabidopsis thaliana and other disciplines.

Els J.M. Van Damme has included themes like PEST analysis, Plant defense against herbivory, Pest control and Biotic stress in his Brown planthopper study. Els J.M. Van Damme has researched Glycosylation in several fields, including Amino acid, Evolutionary biology, Organism, Glycoprotein and Cell wall. Specifically, his work in Biochemistry is concerned with the study of Agglutinin.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 130 years of Plant Lectin Research (9 citations)
  • Synthesis and biological roles of O-glycans in insects. (6 citations)
  • OsEUL Lectin Gene Expression in Rice: Stress Regulation, Subcellular Localization and Tissue Specificity. (5 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Lectin, N-linked glycosylation, Mutant, Phosphorylation and Cell biology. He combines subjects such as Computational biology, Carbohydrate moiety and Glycobiology with his study of Lectin. His N-linked glycosylation study incorporates themes from Concanavalin A, Glycosylation and Brown planthopper.

His Mutant study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant hormone, Osmotic shock and Abscisic acid. His Phosphorylation research is classified as research in Biochemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gene expression, Genome, Gene and Abiotic stress.
