Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Joe Lutkenhaus spends much of his time researching FtsZ, Cell biology, Cytoskeleton, Cell division and FtsA. His FtsZ study combines topics in areas such as Tubulin and GTPase. Joe Lutkenhaus interconnects Min System, Bacterial protein and Cytokinesis in the investigation of issues within Cell biology.

Within one scientific family, Joe Lutkenhaus focuses on topics pertaining to GTP' under Cytoskeleton, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Protein domain. He has included themes like SOS response and Microbiology in his Cell division study. His research integrates issues of Mutation and Mutant in his study of Escherichia coli.

His most cited work include:

  • FtsZ ring structure associated with division in Escherichia coli. (1173 citations)
  • Assembly Dynamics of the Bacterial MinCDE System and Spatial Regulation of the Z Ring (462 citations)
  • BACTERIAL CELL DIVISION AND THE Z RING (427 citations)

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

Joe Lutkenhaus mainly focuses on FtsZ, Cell biology, Cell division, FtsA and Cytoskeleton. His FtsZ study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tubulin, Biophysics and Mutant. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Periplasmic space, ATPase, Cytokinesis, Min System and Cell Cycle Protein.

His Cell division study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutation, Peptidoglycan, Gene, Escherichia coli and Molecular biology. His work in FtsA addresses subjects such as Cytoplasm, which are connected to disciplines such as Activator. The various areas that Joe Lutkenhaus examines in his Cytoskeleton study include SOS response, GTPase and GTP'.

He most often published in these fields:

  • FtsZ (64.46%)
  • Cell biology (61.16%)
  • Cell division (56.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Cell biology (61.16%)
  • Cell division (56.20%)
  • FtsA (31.40%)

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

Joe Lutkenhaus mostly deals with Cell biology, Cell division, FtsA, Peptidoglycan and FtsZ. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cytoskeletal element, Periplasmic space, ATPase and Cytokinesis. His research in Cytokinesis intersects with topics in Cell wall and Min System.

The Cell division study combines topics in areas such as Mutant and Escherichia coli. His work deals with themes such as Cytoplasm and Activator, which intersect with FtsA. His study in Tubulin extends to FtsZ with its themes.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Assembly and activation of the Escherichia coli divisome (97 citations)
  • FtsEX acts on FtsA to regulate divisome assembly and activity. (67 citations)
  • At the Heart of Bacterial Cytokinesis: The Z Ring (29 citations)
