Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Arabidopsis thaliana, Cysteine and Sulfur metabolism. His Biochemistry study focuses mostly on Glutathione, Metabolism, Cytosol, Mutant and Regulation of gene expression. In his work, Photosynthesis and Photosynthetic acclimation is strongly intertwined with Plastid, which is a subfield of Arabidopsis.

In his research on the topic of Arabidopsis thaliana, Iron deficiency is strongly related with Nicotianamine. His work in Cysteine covers topics such as Lyase which are related to areas like Mitochondrion and Serine. His Sulfur metabolism research includes elements of Sulfur assimilation and Biosynthesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for a SAL1-PAP Chloroplast Retrograde Pathway That Functions in Drought and High Light Signaling in Arabidopsis (357 citations)
  • The NADPH-dependent thioredoxin system constitutes a functional backup for cytosolic glutathione reductase in Arabidopsis. (287 citations)
  • Retrograde Plastid Redox Signals in the Expression of Nuclear Genes for Chloroplast Proteins of Arabidopsis thaliana (202 citations)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Cysteine, Arabidopsis thaliana and Glutathione. His study in Sulfur metabolism, Biosynthesis, Cysteine synthase complex, Mutant and Lyase are all subfields of Biochemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Acetylation, Plastid and Cell biology.

His Cysteine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Amino acid and Cytosol. He combines subjects such as Nicotianamine and Nicotiana tabacum with his study of Arabidopsis thaliana. His Glutathione study combines topics in areas such as Oxidative stress, Gene and Thioredoxin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (68.18%)
  • Arabidopsis (31.06%)
  • Cysteine (29.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cell biology (18.94%)
  • Biochemistry (68.18%)
  • Arabidopsis (31.06%)

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

Markus Wirtz mostly deals with Cell biology, Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Mutant and Glutathione. His work on Mitochondrion as part of his general Cell biology study is frequently connected to Glutathione reductase, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Enzyme, Oxidative stress, Biosynthesis and Citric acid cycle are among the areas of Biochemistry where the researcher is concentrating his efforts.

His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arabidopsis thaliana, Acetylation and TOR signaling. His Mutant research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sulfate assimilation and Abscisic acid. His Glutathione research incorporates themes from Food science, Sulfur metabolism and Cytosol.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Redox-mediated kick-start of mitochondrial energy metabolism drives resource-efficient seed germination (23 citations)
  • Arabidopsis glutathione reductase 2 is indispensable in plastids, while mitochondrial glutathione is safeguarded by additional reduction and transport systems. (22 citations)
  • SULTR3s Function in Chloroplast Sulfate Uptake and Affect ABA Biosynthesis and the Stress Response. (20 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Markus Wirtz focuses on Arabidopsis, Biochemistry, Mutant, Cell biology and Arabidopsis thaliana. His Arabidopsis study incorporates themes from Protein subunit, Cold acclimation, TOR signaling, Reverse genetics and NatB complex. In his work, he performs multidisciplinary research in Biochemistry and Protein targeting.

The concepts of his Mutant study are interwoven with issues in Sulfate assimilation, Chloroplast, Abscisic acid and Chloroplast membrane. His Cell biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phenotype, Gene, Catabolism and Plastid stroma. His studies deal with areas such as Plant protein, Protein turnover, Protein degradation and Nicotiana benthamiana as well as Arabidopsis thaliana.
