Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Squire J. Booker mainly investigates Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Radical SAM, Enzyme and ATP synthase. Squire J. Booker combines subjects such as Substrate, Lysine, Cofactor and Escherichia coli with his study of Stereochemistry. The various areas that he examines in his Cofactor study include Oxygenase, Bond cleavage and Peroxide.

His Biochemistry research focuses on Ribonucleotide, Cysteine and Biosynthesis. His Radical SAM study incorporates themes from Protein structure and Methylation. His studies in ATP synthase integrate themes in fields like Glycine, Cleavage and Sulfur.

His most cited work include:

  • A model for the role of multiple cysteine residues involved in ribonucleotide reduction: amazing and still confusing. (172 citations)
  • A Radically Different Mechanism for S-Adenosylmethionine–Dependent Methyltransferases (163 citations)
  • Lipoyl synthase requires two equivalents of S-adenosyl-L-methionine to synthesize one equivalent of lipoic acid. (138 citations)

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

Squire J. Booker mostly deals with Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Enzyme, Cofactor and Radical SAM. His study explores the link between Stereochemistry and topics such as Biosynthesis that cross with problems in Ring. ATP synthase, Escherichia coli, Cysteine, Ribonucleotide and Active site are the subjects of his Biochemistry studies.

His Enzyme research integrates issues from Thermotoga maritima, Cleavage and Radical. His research integrates issues of Enzyme catalysis, Moiety, Indole test, Quinolinate and Redox in his study of Cofactor. Squire J. Booker has researched Radical SAM in several fields, including Residue and Iron–sulfur cluster.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (70.31%)
  • Biochemistry (50.00%)
  • Enzyme (45.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Stereochemistry (70.31%)
  • Radical SAM (35.94%)
  • Cofactor (39.84%)

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

Stereochemistry, Radical SAM, Cofactor, Enzyme and Biosynthesis are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Methylation, Methyltransferase and Catalysis in addition to Stereochemistry. His Radical SAM study combines topics in areas such as Iron–sulfur cluster, Nucleophile and Escherichia coli.

His Cofactor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dihydroxyacetone phosphate, Residue, DHAP, Quinolinate and ATP synthase. His research in Enzyme intersects with topics in Crystallography and Regulation of gene expression. When carried out as part of a general Biochemistry research project, his work on Protein methylation and Complementation is frequently linked to work in Methanosarcina acetivorans, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Atlas of the Radical SAM Superfamily: Divergent Evolution of Function Using a "Plug and Play" Domain. (35 citations)
  • Enhanced Solubilization of Class B Radical S-Adenosylmethionine Methylases by Improved Cobalamin Uptake in Escherichia coli (19 citations)
  • Capturing Intermediates in the Reaction Catalyzed by NosN, a Class C Radical S-Adenosylmethionine Methylase Involved in the Biosynthesis of the Nosiheptide Side-Ring System (15 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Squire J. Booker mainly focuses on Radical SAM, Methylation, Methyltransferase, Biochemistry and Biosynthesis. His Radical SAM research includes themes of Divergent evolution, Biogenesis and Escherichia coli. The Protein methylation research Squire J. Booker does as part of his general Methyltransferase study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Methanosarcina acetivorans, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Squire J. Booker interconnects Bicyclic molecule, Stereochemistry, Cofactor and Peptide in the investigation of issues within Biosynthesis. His studies deal with areas such as Thioester and Ring as well as Stereochemistry. His Thermotoga maritima research extends to Enzyme, which is thematically connected.
