Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Metabolism

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Enzyme, Fructose, Molecular biology and Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Internal medicine and Endocrinology. His Enzyme study combines topics in areas such as Amino acid, Chemical biology and Endoplasmic reticulum.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Phosphate and Glucokinase regulatory protein in addition to Fructose. Emile Van Schaftingen interconnects Mutation, Gene, Complementary DNA and Glycogen Storage Disease Type Ib in the investigation of issues within Molecular biology. His Fructose 6-phosphate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glycolysis and Phosphofructokinase 1.

His most cited work include:

  • A kinetic study of pyrophosphate: fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase from potato tubers. Application to a microassay of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. (548 citations)
  • Vitamin C. Biosynthesis, recycling and degradation in mammals. (460 citations)
  • The glucose-6-phosphatase system. (316 citations)

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

Emile Van Schaftingen mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Enzyme, Fructose, Molecular biology and Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase, Glycolysis, Phosphofructokinase, Glucokinase and Phosphofructokinase 2 are subfields of Biochemistry in which his conducts study. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Enzyme, narrowing it down to issues related to the Fructosamine-3-kinase, and often Fructoselysine.

His Fructose research includes themes of Fructosediphosphates, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His work deals with themes such as Mutation, Peptide sequence, Gene, Complementary DNA and Dehydrogenase, which intersect with Molecular biology. The Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate study combines topics in areas such as Jerusalem artichoke and Phosphofructokinase 1.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (82.38%)
  • Enzyme (34.36%)
  • Fructose (31.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (82.38%)
  • Enzyme (34.36%)
  • Genetics (8.37%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Enzyme, Genetics, Metabolite and Internal medicine. His Glycolysis, Dehydrogenase, Metabolism, Erythritol and Ribose study are his primary interests in Biochemistry. In general Enzyme study, his work on Cytosol often relates to the realm of Carnosine synthase, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Metabolite study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Chemical biology, Allosteric regulation, Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase and Function. His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Gastroenterology, Glutamine, Endocrinology and Glycosylation. His work on Transferrin as part of general Endocrinology study is frequently linked to Saccharopine, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Metabolite damage and its repair or pre-emption (199 citations)
  • Multiple Phenotypes in Phosphoglucomutase 1 Deficiency (169 citations)
  • TMEM165 Deficiency Causes a Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation (114 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Metabolism

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Enzyme, Glycosylation, Phosphatase and Endocrinology. His Biochemistry research focuses on Metabolic pathway, Protein family, Phosphofructokinase 2, Bisphosphoglycerate phosphatase and Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. His Enzyme research includes elements of Metabolite, Kinase, Hydroxylysine and Phosphorylation.

Emile Van Schaftingen combines subjects such as Golgi apparatus, Congenital disorder of glycosylation, Membrane protein and Glycoprotein with his study of Glycosylation. His Phosphatase study incorporates themes from Glycolysis, Glucose 6-phosphatase and Endoplasmic reticulum. The concepts of his Endocrinology study are interwoven with issues in Internal medicine and Reductase, Saccharopine dehydrogenase.
