Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Her primary areas of investigation include Microbiology, Virulence, Francisella tularensis, Virology and Yersinia pestis. Her Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bacteria, Burkholderia pseudomallei, Mutant, Attenuated vaccine and Enterobacteriaceae. Her Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Melioidosis and Immunity.

Her Virulence study is concerned with Genetics in general. Her Francisella tularensis research includes elements of Tularemia, Intracellular pathogen, Whole genome sequencing and Immune system. Her research integrates issues of Extracellular matrix and Plague in her study of Yersinia pestis.

Her most cited work include:

  • Genomic plasticity of the causative agent of melioidosis, Burkholderia pseudomallei (608 citations)
  • Structure and function of the LysR-type transcriptional regulator (LTTR) family proteins. (565 citations)
  • Tularaemia: bioterrorism defence renews interest in Francisella tularensis (410 citations)

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

Petra C. F. Oyston mainly focuses on Microbiology, Virulence, Virology, Yersinia pestis and Francisella tularensis. Her work deals with themes such as Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, Mutant, Gene, Immune system and Bacteria, which intersect with Microbiology. Petra C. F. Oyston usually deals with Virulence and limits it to topics linked to Pathogen and Antibiotic resistance and Plasmid.

Her work is dedicated to discovering how Virology, Antigen are connected with Gene cluster and other disciplines. The Yersinia pestis study combines topics in areas such as Bubonic plague, Essential gene and Enterobacteriaceae. Her Francisella tularensis research integrates issues from Tularemia, Immunology and Pilin.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (67.18%)
  • Virulence (35.88%)
  • Virology (32.82%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Microbiology (67.18%)
  • Francisella tularensis (34.35%)
  • Francisella (16.03%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Microbiology, Francisella tularensis, Francisella, Yersinia pestis and Virulence. Petra C. F. Oyston combines subjects such as In vivo, Gene, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Antibiotic resistance with her study of Microbiology. Her Gene study deals with the bigger picture of Genetics.

Her research in Francisella tularensis intersects with topics in Genome, Cas9, Bacterial genome size, Immune system and Tularemia. Her work carried out in the field of Yersinia pestis brings together such families of science as Mutation, Essential gene and Pathogen. Her studies examine the connections between Virulence and genetics, as well as such issues in Intracellular, with regards to Heat shock protein, Cytoplasm, Protein A and Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Between 2014 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Substrate recognition and mechanism revealed by ligand-bound polyphosphate kinase 2 structures. (19 citations)
  • Substrate recognition and mechanism revealed by ligand-bound polyphosphate kinase 2 structures. (19 citations)
  • Predatory bacteria can protect SKH-1 mice from a lethal plague challenge (9 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Petra C. F. Oyston spends much of her time researching Microbiology, Bacteria, Kinase, Polyphosphate kinase and Stereochemistry. The concepts of her Microbiology study are interwoven with issues in Francisella tularensis, Francisella, Yersinia pestis and Intracellular parasite. Within the field of Virulence and Gene she studies Yersinia pestis.

Petra C. F. Oyston incorporates a variety of subjects into her writings, including Bacteria, Particle stability, Nanotechnology, Chemical production, Reaction conditions and Silver nanoparticle. Her Kinase research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transferase, Nucleotide, Cofactor and Ligand. The various areas that Petra C. F. Oyston examines in her Pathogen study include Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, Bubonic plague, Host, Antibiotic resistance and In vivo.
