Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Her primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Dirigent protein, Lignan, Lignin and Monolignol. Her Biosynthesis, Phenylpropanoid, Reductase, Enzyme and Arabidopsis thaliana study are her primary interests in Biochemistry. Organic chemistry, Pinoresinol, Stereoselectivity and Stereochemistry are the main topics of her Dirigent protein study.

Laurence B. Davin has researched Lignan in several fields, including Middle lamella, Cambium, Vascular cambium, Xylem and Vascular bundle. The concepts of her Lignin study are interwoven with issues in Cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, Phenols, Macromolecule and Food science. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Monolignol, Linum, Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside, In silico, Genomics and Genome is strongly linked to Metabolic pathway.

Her most cited work include:

  • Stereoselective bimolecular phenoxy radical coupling by an auxiliary (dirigent) protein without an active center. (508 citations)
  • Dirigent proteins and dirigent sites explain the mystery of specificity of radical precursor coupling in lignan and lignin biosynthesis. (228 citations)
  • The Arabidopsis phenylalanine ammonia lyase gene family: kinetic characterization of the four PAL isoforms☆ (200 citations)

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

Laurence B. Davin mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Lignan, Dirigent protein and Lignin. Her Stereochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Organic chemistry, NAD+ kinase and Stereoselectivity. Her Lignan study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phenols and Metabolic pathway.

Laurence B. Davin is conducting research in Pinoresinol and Coniferyl alcohol as part of her Dirigent protein study. Her study in the fields of Lariciresinol under the domain of Pinoresinol overlaps with other disciplines such as Forsythia × intermedia. Her study looks at the intersection of Lignin and topics like Cell wall with Vascular bundle.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (50.76%)
  • Stereochemistry (28.03%)
  • Lignan (26.52%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (50.76%)
  • Dirigent protein (25.00%)
  • Metabolic pathway (9.85%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Dirigent protein, Metabolic pathway, Lignan and Wild type. The study incorporates disciplines such as Speciality chemicals, Aroma and Podophyllum peltatum in addition to Biochemistry. The Dirigent protein portion of her research involves studies in Pinoresinol and Stereoselectivity.

The Stereoselectivity study which covers Coniferyl alcohol that intersects with Stereochemistry, Binding site and Plant protein. Her research integrates issues of Plant defense against herbivory, Sequence analysis, Linum and Massive parallel sequencing in her study of Lignan. Her Wild type research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase, Mutagenesis and Transferase, Enzyme.

Between 2010 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The laccase multigene family in Arabidopsis thaliana : towards addressing the mystery of their gene function(s) (99 citations)
  • Next Generation Sequencing in Predicting Gene Function in Podophyllotoxin Biosynthesis (77 citations)
  • Dirigent Protein-Mediated Lignan and Cyanogenic Glucoside Formation in Flax Seed: Integrated Omics and MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging. (60 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Laurence B. Davin mainly investigates Biochemistry, Dirigent protein, Pinoresinol, Gene expression and Arabidopsis thaliana. Her Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Lignan and Lignin. Her Dirigent protein research incorporates themes from Linum and Binding site.

Her research investigates the connection between Pinoresinol and topics such as Stereoselectivity that intersect with problems in Site-directed mutagenesis, Plant protein and Monolignol. Her studies deal with areas such as Plant disease resistance, Regulation of gene expression and Function as well as Gene expression. Her Arabidopsis thaliana research includes elements of Vascular bundle, Arabidopsis, Chloroplast, Plastid and Wild type.
