Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Chlamydomonas, Biochemistry, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Gene and Genetics. His Chlamydomonas study combines topics in areas such as Flagellum, Botany, Plastocyanin, Regulation of gene expression and Metabolism. The Flagellum study combines topics in areas such as Nuclear gene and Gonium.

Sabeeha S. Merchant usually deals with Biochemistry and limits it to topics linked to Copper deficiency and Lipid modification, Regulon and Ceruloplasmin. His study in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Iron assimilation, Thylakoid, Transcriptome, Gene expression and Cell biology. His work on Genome and Reporter gene as part of general Gene study is frequently linked to Multicopper oxidase, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • The Chlamydomonas Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions (2003 citations)
  • Relationship between nucleosome positioning and DNA methylation. (578 citations)
  • The tiny eukaryote Ostreococcus provides genomic insights into the paradox of plankton speciation (500 citations)

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

Sabeeha S. Merchant focuses on Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Biochemistry, Chlamydomonas, Gene and Chloroplast. Sabeeha S. Merchant has researched Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in several fields, including Photosynthesis, Transcriptome, Gene expression, Plastocyanin and Cell biology. His work deals with themes such as Plastid and Metabolism, which intersect with Photosynthesis.

His research integrates issues of Botany, Biophysics, Copper deficiency, Regulation of gene expression and Computational biology in his study of Chlamydomonas. His Gene study deals with the bigger picture of Genetics. His study focuses on the intersection of Chloroplast and fields such as Arabidopsis with connections in the field of Arabidopsis thaliana.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (56.96%)
  • Biochemistry (48.70%)
  • Chlamydomonas (42.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (56.96%)
  • Chlamydomonas (42.61%)
  • Cell biology (20.87%)

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

His main research concerns Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Chlamydomonas, Cell biology, Gene and Biochemistry. His research in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii intersects with topics in Compartmentalization, Transcriptional activity, Algae, Trace metal and Promoter activity. His work carried out in the field of Chlamydomonas brings together such families of science as Transcriptome, Biophysics, Polyphosphate, Acidocalcisome and Chloroplast.

Sabeeha S. Merchant has included themes like Gene Silencing Pathway, Epigenetics, Transgene and Transcriptional regulation in his Cell biology study. His study in the field of Nuclear gene also crosses realms of Astaxanthin biosynthesis. His work in the fields of Genetics, such as Genome, RNA-Seq and Fungal protein, intersects with other areas such as Symbiosis.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Algae as nutritional and functional food sources: revisiting our understanding (453 citations)
  • Chromosome-level genome assembly and transcriptome of the green alga Chromochloris zofingiensis illuminates astaxanthin production. (74 citations)
  • In situ architecture of the algal nuclear pore complex (50 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, Algae, Gene, Chloroplast and Chlamydomonas are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Calcium, Compartmentalization and Structural variation. His Gene study is associated with Genetics.

His studies examine the connections between Chloroplast and genetics, as well as such issues in Computational biology, with regards to Genome editing, Organism and Model organism. In his study, Vacuolar protein sorting and Saccharomyces cerevisiae is strongly linked to Cell biology, which falls under the umbrella field of Chlamydomonas. His Photosynthesis study is related to the wider topic of Biochemistry.
