Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Eukaryote

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Chloroplast, Cell division, Cell biology, Plastid and Arabidopsis. While the research belongs to areas of Chloroplast, she spends her time largely on the problem of Cytoskeleton, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Mitochondrion and Organelle fission. Katherine W. Osteryoung specializes in Cell division, namely FtsZ.

Katherine W. Osteryoung studies Cell biology, focusing on Organelle in particular. Her Plastid study incorporates themes from Botany, Carotenoid, Petal and Gene expression. She works mostly in the field of Arabidopsis, limiting it down to topics relating to Arabidopsis thaliana and, in certain cases, Protein structure, Protein family and Biophysics.

Her most cited work include:

  • Chloroplast Division in Higher Plants Requires Members of Two Functionally Divergent Gene Families with Homology to Bacterial ftsZ (308 citations)
  • Genome, Functional Gene Annotation, and Nuclear Transformation of the Heterokont Oleaginous Alga Nannochloropsis oceanica CCMP1779 (280 citations)
  • Conserved cell and organelle division (244 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Chloroplast, Cell biology, FtsZ, Plastid and Arabidopsis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biophysics and Mutant in addition to Chloroplast. Her Cell biology research includes themes of Chloroplast division and Membrane protein.

Her research in FtsZ intersects with topics in Protein filament and Cytokinesis. Her Plastid study improves the overall literature in Genetics. The various areas that she examines in her Arabidopsis study include Arabidopsis thaliana, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Allele and Wild type.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Chloroplast (58.33%)
  • Cell biology (54.76%)
  • FtsZ (46.43%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Chloroplast (58.33%)
  • FtsZ (46.43%)
  • Cytoskeleton (23.81%)

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

Katherine W. Osteryoung spends much of her time researching Chloroplast, FtsZ, Cytoskeleton, Biophysics and Cell biology. Her work in Chloroplast covers topics such as Arabidopsis which are related to areas like Allele. Her FtsZ research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Arabidopsis thaliana and Membrane protein.

Within one scientific family, Katherine W. Osteryoung focuses on topics pertaining to Botany under Biophysics, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Min System. Her studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Cyanobacteria, Carboxysome, Bacteria, Plastid and Nucleoid. Her research integrates issues of Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching and Lineage in her study of Plastid.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The Molecular Machinery of Chloroplast Division (42 citations)
  • Protein gradients on the nucleoid position the carbon-fixing organelles of cyanobacteria. (35 citations)
  • Robust Min-system oscillation in the presence of internal photosynthetic membranes in cyanobacteria (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Eukaryote

Her primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Cytoskeleton, Cell division, Chloroplast and FtsZ. Her work in the fields of Cell biology, such as Organelle, overlaps with other areas such as Atpase activity. Katherine W. Osteryoung has researched Cytoskeleton in several fields, including Carboxysome and DNA.

Her Cell division research incorporates themes from Glaucophyte, Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, Computational biology and Lineage. Her work focuses on many connections between Chloroplast and other disciplines, such as ATP synthase, that overlap with her field of interest in Thylakoid. Katherine W. Osteryoung combines subjects such as Plastid, Membrane, Membrane protein, Cell membrane and MINC with her study of FtsZ.
