Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Mutant, Arabidopsis thaliana and Botany. His Arabidopsis research is classified as research in Gene. Kenzo Nakamura specializes in Gene, namely Transgene.

His research on Mutant often connects related topics like Gene expression. His research on Arabidopsis thaliana concerns the broader Genetics. While the research belongs to areas of Botany, he spends his time largely on the problem of Sucrose, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Sugar, Wild type, Carbohydrate, Leafy and Imbibition.

His most cited work include:

  • Improved Gateway binary vectors: high-performance vectors for creation of fusion constructs in transgenic analysis of plants. (565 citations)
  • Construction and Expression in Tobacco of a β-Glucuronidase (GUS) Reporter Gene Containing an Intron Within the Coding Sequence (397 citations)
  • Characterization of a cDNA encoding a novel DNA-binding protein, SPF1, that recognizes SP8 sequences in the 5′ upstream regions of genes coding for sporamin and β-amylase from sweet potato (380 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Gene, Molecular biology, Genetics and Gene expression. His study in Gene concentrates on Arabidopsis, Mutant, Promoter, Intron and Regulation of gene expression. The various areas that Kenzo Nakamura examines in his Arabidopsis study include Botany, Transcription factor, Meristem, Cell biology and Auxin.

His Mutant research incorporates elements of Mutation and Protein precursor. His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nucleic acid sequence, Coding region, Complementary DNA, Reporter gene and Messenger RNA. His research in Gene expression intersects with topics in Methyl jasmonate and Solanaceae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (49.06%)
  • Gene (38.36%)
  • Molecular biology (27.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2016)?

  • Arabidopsis (22.01%)
  • Gene (38.36%)
  • Genetics (20.75%)

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

His primary areas of study are Arabidopsis, Gene, Genetics, Cell biology and Mutant. His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Arabidopsis thaliana, Botany, Sucrose, Meristem and Auxin. His Gene research is within the category of Biochemistry.

When carried out as part of a general Biochemistry research project, his work on Peptide sequence, Glycosylation and Hydroxyproline is frequently linked to work in Glycan and Arabinogalactan, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Regulation of gene expression, Pollen and Elaioplast. Kenzo Nakamura combines subjects such as Mutation, Gene expression and Ovule with his study of Mutant.

Between 2003 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Improved Gateway binary vectors: high-performance vectors for creation of fusion constructs in transgenic analysis of plants. (565 citations)
  • Control of seed mass by APETALA2 (309 citations)
  • An AP2-type transcription factor, WRINKLED1, of Arabidopsis thaliana binds to the AW-box sequence conserved among proximal upstream regions of genes involved in fatty acid synthesis. (204 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Arabidopsis, Gene, Genetics, Transcription factor and Mutant. To a larger extent, Kenzo Nakamura studies Biochemistry with the aim of understanding Arabidopsis. His Genetics study incorporates themes from Microspore and Cell biology.

His study in Transcription factor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Acyl carrier protein, Pollen, Stamen and Binding site. His work deals with themes such as Ovule and Nonsense-mediated decay, which intersect with Mutant. As part of the same scientific family, Kenzo Nakamura usually focuses on Arabidopsis thaliana, concentrating on Gene expression and intersecting with Nucleolin.
