Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His primary scientific interests are in Chromophore, Biochemistry, Photochemistry, Biophysics and Microbiology. His Chromophore research incorporates elements of Transduction, Crystallography, Rhodobacter sphaeroides, Hydrogen bond and Dark state. His studies in Photochemistry integrate themes in fields like Bacterial protein, Isomerization, Photoisomerization, Quantum yield and Deprotonation.

His work deals with themes such as Photosynthesis, Photoreceptor protein, Flavin group, BLUF domain and Phycobilisome, which intersect with Biophysics. The various areas that he examines in his Microbiology study include Polymerase chain reaction, Bacillus subtilis, Bacteria and Infant formula. His studies deal with areas such as Transcription factor, Cell, Cell wall and Candida albicans as well as Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

His most cited work include:

  • Dynamics of cell wall structure in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. (693 citations)
  • The eubacterium Ectothiorhodospira halophila is negatively phototactic, with a wavelength dependence that fits the absorption spectrum of the photoactive yellow protein. (302 citations)
  • Molecular organization of the cell wall of Candida albicans (296 citations)

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

Klaas J. Hellingwerf spends much of his time researching Photochemistry, Biochemistry, Chromophore, Biophysics and Synechocystis. As a part of the same scientific family, Klaas J. Hellingwerf mostly works in the field of Photochemistry, focusing on Isomerization and, on occasion, Quantum yield. His Biochemistry study is mostly concerned with Mutant, Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Peptide sequence and Metabolic engineering.

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Ground state and Protein structure is closely connected to Crystallography in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Chromophore. Klaas J. Hellingwerf has researched Biophysics in several fields, including Botany, Signal transduction, Bacillus subtilis, BLUF domain and Light intensity. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Synechocystis, Biochemical engineering is strongly linked to Photosynthesis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Photochemistry (32.61%)
  • Biochemistry (29.92%)
  • Chromophore (23.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Synechocystis (11.59%)
  • Biochemistry (29.92%)
  • Cyanobacteria (7.55%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Synechocystis, Biochemistry, Cyanobacteria, Photosynthesis and Biophysics. As part of the same scientific family, Klaas J. Hellingwerf usually focuses on Biochemistry, concentrating on Chemostat and intersecting with Metabolism. His Biophysics research also works with subjects such as

  • Light intensity which is related to area like Photoinhibition,
  • Bacillus subtilis, which have a strong connection to Fight-or-flight response and Signal transduction.

In his research, Photochemistry is intimately related to Absorbance, which falls under the overarching field of Retinal. His work carried out in the field of Photochemistry brings together such families of science as Infrared and Isomerization. His Thylakoid study deals with Fluorescence intersecting with Chromophore.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Potential of industrial biotechnology with cyanobacteria and eukaryotic microalgae (258 citations)
  • Metabolic engineering of cyanobacteria for the synthesis of commodity products (164 citations)
  • Engineering cyanobacteria for direct biofuel production from CO2 (131 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

Biochemistry, Synechocystis, Cyanobacteria, Metabolic engineering and Photosynthesis are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Plastoquinone and Systems biology in his study of Synechocystis. His Cyanobacteria study incorporates themes from Cell, Botany, Photosynthetic growth, Microbiology and High-throughput screening.

His Metabolic engineering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Extracellular, Glycerol, Metabolic pathway and Lactic acid. His work is dedicated to discovering how Photosynthetic efficiency, Photosystem are connected with Photochemistry and other disciplines. His research in Chemostat intersects with topics in Biophysics and Analytical chemistry.
