Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Heterocyst, Heterocyst differentiation, Anabaena and Gene. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Pheromone, Larva and Alae. His Heterocyst research includes elements of Molecular biology and Mutant.

His work in Molecular biology addresses subjects such as DNA, which are connected to disciplines such as DNA-binding protein and Binding site. His Heterocyst differentiation research focuses on subjects like Microbiology, which are linked to Cyanobacteria and Nitrogen fixation. Gene is a component of his Direct repeat and Gene rearrangement studies.

His most cited work include:

  • The Caenorhabditis elegans dauer larva: developmental effects of pheromone, food, and temperature (457 citations)
  • A pheromone influences larval development in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. (330 citations)
  • Heterocyst pattern formation controlled by a diffusible peptide. (316 citations)

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

Gene, Heterocyst, Anabaena, Genetics and Heterocyst differentiation are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Cyanobacteria, Molecular biology and DNA, which intersect with Gene. His Molecular biology research focuses on Promoter and how it connects with Transcription factor and Peptide sequence.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gene rearrangement, Mutant, Microbiology, Recombinase and Cell biology. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Ecology, Pheromone, Alae and Multicellular organism. His work investigates the relationship between Anabaena and topics such as Nitrogen fixation that intersect with problems in Photosynthesis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Gene (65.75%)
  • Heterocyst (58.90%)
  • Anabaena (52.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Gene (65.75%)
  • Genetics (47.95%)
  • Cyanobacteria (23.29%)

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

James W. Golden mainly focuses on Gene, Genetics, Cyanobacteria, Biochemistry and Polyketide. His Gene study combines topics in areas such as Anabaena and Cell biology. James W. Golden works mostly in the field of Anabaena, limiting it down to concerns involving Nostoc and, occasionally, Botany.

He interconnects Heterocyst, Transcription, Transcriptional regulation, Mutant and Green fluorescent protein in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. He focuses mostly in the field of Cyanobacteria, narrowing it down to matters related to Natural competence and, in some cases, Model organism. James W. Golden has researched DNA in several fields, including Microbiology and Escherichia coli.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Metagenomic discovery of polybrominated diphenyl ether biosynthesis by marine sponges (65 citations)
  • NOT Gate Genetic Circuits to Control Gene Expression in Cyanobacteria (22 citations)
  • The circadian clock and darkness control natural competence in cyanobacteria. (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Bacteria

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, Synthetic biology, Natural competence and Pilus. His study brings together the fields of Cell biology and Genetics. James W. Golden is interested in FtsZ, which is a field of Gene.

His studies deal with areas such as Synechococcus, Metabolic engineering, Synechococcus elongatus, Heterologous and Polyketide synthase as well as Synthetic biology. His Natural competence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cyanobacteria, Circadian clock, Model organism and Darkness.
