Biochemistry, Enzyme, Escherichia coli, Bacteria and Molecular biology are his primary areas of study. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Depolymerization. His research investigates the connection between Escherichia coli and topics such as Kinase that intersect with issues in Glucokinase and Micrococcus.

His studies in Bacteria integrate themes in fields like Strain and Microbiology. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Amino acid, Nucleic acid sequence and Molecular cloning, Open reading frame, Peptide sequence. His studies examine the connections between Gene and genetics, as well as such issues in Yeast, with regards to Protoplast, DNA, Nuclear chemistry and Plasmid.

His most cited work include:

  • Transformation of intact yeast cells treated with alkali cations. (5852 citations)
  • Identification of a gene conferring resistance to zinc and cadmium ions in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (171 citations)
  • Transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other fungi: methods and possible underlying mechanism. (153 citations)

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

Kousaku Murata focuses on Biochemistry, Enzyme, Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Bacteria. Biochemistry is often connected to Molecular biology in his work. The Enzyme study which covers Stereochemistry that intersects with Crystal structure, Residue, Hydrolase, Active site and Hydrogen bond.

He has researched Escherichia coli in several fields, including Amino acid, Mutant and Glutathione synthetase. His Saccharomyces cerevisiae research includes themes of DNA, Transformation and Metabolism. His Bacteria study combines topics in areas such as Depolymerization, Strain, Microbiology and Polysaccharide.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (74.24%)
  • Enzyme (32.32%)
  • Escherichia coli (22.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (74.24%)
  • Stereochemistry (14.39%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Bacteria, ATP-binding cassette transporter and Enzyme. His Strain research extends to Biochemistry, which is thematically connected. The various areas that he examines in his Stereochemistry study include Heparan sulfate, Heparin, Hydrolase and Hydrogen bond.

His studies in Bacteria integrate themes in fields like Ethanol, Microbiology, Polysaccharide, Substrate and Brown algae. His ATP-binding cassette transporter research integrates issues from Periplasmic space, Binding protein, Docking and Cytoplasm. His research in Saccharomyces cerevisiae intersects with topics in Mutation, Transformation and DNA.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Strategies for the production of high concentrations of bioethanol from seaweeds: production of high concentrations of bioethanol from seaweeds. (82 citations)
  • Identification and characterization of a human mitochondrial NAD kinase (71 citations)
  • Biofuel Production Based on Carbohydrates from Both Brown and Red Macroalgae: Recent Developments in Key Biotechnologies (45 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Bacteria, Botany, ATP-binding cassette transporter and Stereochemistry. His work in NAD+ kinase, Enzyme, Mannitol, Glycosaminoglycan and Saccharomyces cerevisiae is related to Biochemistry. His study in Bacteria is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ethanol, Enterococcus faecalis, Strain and Brown algae.

His studies deal with areas such as DNA-binding protein, Yeast, Escherichia coli, Yeast strain and Saccharomyces paradoxus as well as Strain. Kousaku Murata has included themes like Protein structure and Periplasmic space in his ATP-binding cassette transporter study. Kousaku Murata interconnects Glycosidic bond, Tetrasaccharide, Hydrogen bond and Residue in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry.
