Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Genetics, Microbiology, Environmental chemistry and 16S ribosomal RNA. His study in Genetics concentrates on Gene, Phylogenetic tree, Nucleic acid sequence, Pseudomonas putida and Phylogenetics. The concepts of his Microbiology study are interwoven with issues in Food science, Microorganism, Enrichment culture, Strain and Taxonomy.

His Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Biodegradation, Bacteria, Alcanivorax, Seawater and Petroleum. His work deals with themes such as Spore and Algae, which intersect with Bacteria. His studies in 16S ribosomal RNA integrate themes in fields like Botany, DNA gyrase, Ribosomal RNA, Ribosomal DNA and Sequence analysis.

His most cited work include:

  • Biodegradation of high-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by bacteria. (904 citations)
  • PCR amplification and direct sequencing of gyrB genes with universal primers and their application to the detection and taxonomic analysis of Pseudomonas putida strains. (579 citations)
  • Molecular mechanisms of genetic adaptation to xenobiotic compounds. (516 citations)

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

Shigeaki Harayama mainly investigates Biochemistry, Bacteria, Gene, Microbiology and 16S ribosomal RNA. His Biochemistry and Enzyme, Escherichia coli, Peptide sequence, Pseudomonas putida and Mutant investigations all form part of his Biochemistry research activities. His Peptide sequence research incorporates themes from Amino acid and Nucleic acid sequence.

His Bacteria study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Biodegradation and Strain. His Gene study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Genetics. As part of one scientific family, Shigeaki Harayama deals mainly with the area of 16S ribosomal RNA, narrowing it down to issues related to the Phylogenetic tree, and often Phylogenetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (34.26%)
  • Bacteria (21.91%)
  • Gene (20.68%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (34.26%)
  • Microbiology (19.75%)
  • Bacteria (21.91%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Microbiology, Bacteria, 16S ribosomal RNA and Gene. His work in Biochemistry is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Strain. His study in Genus extends to Microbiology with its themes.

Shigeaki Harayama combines subjects such as Environmental chemistry and Fatty acid with his study of Bacteria. His 16S ribosomal RNA study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetics, Taxonomy and Phylogenetic tree. His Gene research entails a greater understanding of Genetics.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Advances in the field of high-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon biodegradation by bacteria. (165 citations)
  • Ignavibacterium album gen. nov., sp. nov., a moderately thermophilic anaerobic bacterium isolated from microbial mats at a terrestrial hot spring and proposal of Ignavibacteria classis nov., for a novel lineage at the periphery of green sulfur bacteria. (155 citations)
  • Iron-corroding methanogen isolated from a crude-oil storage tank. (124 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

Shigeaki Harayama mostly deals with Microbiology, 16S ribosomal RNA, Ribosomal RNA, Sequence analysis and Phylogenetics. His Microbiology research incorporates elements of Microorganism, Bacteria, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, Mycobacterium vanbaalenii and Biotransformation. His Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Nucleic acid thermodynamics, Biodegradation and Fatty acid.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Chiton, Botany and Phylogenetic tree in addition to 16S ribosomal RNA. His studies deal with areas such as Diamino acid and Gammaproteobacteria as well as Ribosomal RNA. As a member of one scientific family, Shigeaki Harayama mostly works in the field of Corrosion, focusing on Biochemistry and, on occasion, Molecular biology.
