Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Organic chemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Phanerochaete, Biochemistry, Lignin, Peroxidase and Chrysosporium. His Phanerochaete research includes elements of Oxygenase, Cleavage, Lignin peroxidase, Stereochemistry and Hemeprotein. Lignin peroxidase is closely attributed to Manganese peroxidase in his research.

Lignin is the subject of his research, which falls under Organic chemistry. His work carried out in the field of Peroxidase brings together such families of science as Complementary DNA, Molecular biology, Biodegradation and Oxalate oxidase. Chrysosporium is a subfield of Enzyme that Ming Tien explores.

His most cited work include:

  • Lignin peroxidase of Phanerochaete chrysosporium (1148 citations)
  • Lignin-degrading enzyme from Phanerochaete chrysosporium: Purification, characterization, and catalytic properties of a unique H2O2-requiring oxygenase (1075 citations)
  • Lignin-Degrading Enzyme from the Hymenomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium Burds. (1032 citations)

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

Ming Tien mostly deals with Biochemistry, Phanerochaete, Lignin, Lignin peroxidase and Peroxidase. His Phanerochaete research includes themes of Chrysosporium, Manganese peroxidase, Molecular biology, Stereochemistry and Isozyme. Ming Tien works on Manganese peroxidase which deals in particular with Manganese peroxidase activity.

Lignin is a subfield of Organic chemistry that Ming Tien investigates. He has included themes like Chromatography, Guaiacol and Nuclear chemistry in his Lignin peroxidase study. Ming Tien works mostly in the field of Peroxidase, limiting it down to topics relating to Ferric and, in certain cases, Ferrous.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (40.33%)
  • Phanerochaete (35.91%)
  • Lignin (32.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (40.33%)
  • Cellulose (12.15%)
  • Cell wall (6.63%)

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

Ming Tien focuses on Biochemistry, Cellulose, Cell wall, Lignin and Cellulase. His work focuses on many connections between Biochemistry and other disciplines, such as Bacteria, that overlap with his field of interest in ATP synthase. His Cellulose research integrates issues from Arabidopsis thaliana, Arabidopsis, Cellulose synthase complex, Biophysics and Cell biology.

His Cell wall study combines topics in areas such as Amino acid, Gene, Transgene and Cytosol. His Chrysosporium and Phanerochaete study are his primary interests in Lignin. His work carried out in the field of Phanerochaete brings together such families of science as Sulfide minerals, Sulfide and Pyrite.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Arabidopsis Cellulose Synthase Complex: A Proposed Hexamer of CESA Trimers in an Equimolar Stoichiometry (110 citations)
  • Metagenomic Profiling Reveals Lignocellulose Degrading System in a Microbial Community Associated with a Wood-Feeding Beetle (73 citations)
  • Differential proteomic analysis of the secretome of Irpex lacteus and other white-rot fungi during wheat straw pretreatment. (63 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Organic chemistry

Ming Tien spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Cell wall, Cellulose, Lignin and Cellulase. When carried out as part of a general Biochemistry research project, his work on Cellulose synthase complex and Glucan is frequently linked to work in Alanine racemase, Lysine decarboxylase and Cellulose microfibril, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Cellulose research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biophysics, Arabidopsis, Membrane protein and Random hexamer.

His study in the field of Coniferyl alcohol also crosses realms of Quinone methide. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phanerochaete and Polysaccharide. Ming Tien undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Phanerochaete and Hydrometallurgy through his research.
