Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Plasmid, Biochemistry, Autoinducer and Gene. His Agrobacterium tumefaciens research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agrobacterium and Microbiology. In his work, Mutant and Genetic transfer is strongly intertwined with Molecular biology, which is a subfield of Plasmid.

His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Bacteria. His Autoinducer research integrates issues from Homoserine and Cell biology. As a member of one scientific family, Stephen C. Winans mostly works in the field of Ti plasmid, focusing on Octopine and, on occasion, Promoter.

His most cited work include:

  • Quorum sensing in bacteria: the LuxR-LuxI family of cell density-responsive transcriptional regulators. (2127 citations)
  • Census and consensus in bacterial ecosystems: the LuxR-LuxI family of quorum-sensing transcriptional regulators. (1017 citations)
  • A LuxR-LuxI type regulatory system activates Agrobacterium Ti plasmid conjugal transfer in the presence of a plant tumor metabolite. (419 citations)

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

Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Gene, Plasmid, Molecular biology and Biochemistry are his primary areas of study. His work carried out in the field of Agrobacterium tumefaciens brings together such families of science as Microbiology, Operon, Agrobacterium and Regulon. His Plasmid study is associated with Genetics.

The study incorporates disciplines such as lac operon, Mutant, DNA, Promoter and Transcription in addition to Molecular biology. His studies deal with areas such as Homoserine and Acyl-Homoserine Lactones as well as Autoinducer. His study in the field of Swarming motility also crosses realms of Proteobacteria.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agrobacterium tumefaciens (56.78%)
  • Gene (37.29%)
  • Plasmid (35.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2018)?

  • Quorum sensing (22.03%)
  • DNA (23.73%)
  • Transcription factor (16.95%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Quorum sensing, DNA, Transcription factor, Biochemistry and Genetics. His work deals with themes such as Pheromone, Transcription, Microbiology and Cell biology, which intersect with Quorum sensing. Stephen C. Winans has researched DNA in several fields, including Octopine, Ti plasmid and Tetramer.

His Transcription factor study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Molecular biology, Burkholderia cenocepacia and Mutant. His biological study focuses on Agrobacterium tumefaciens. His research related to Replicon and Plasmid might be considered part of Genetics.

Between 2009 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • The ABCs of plasmid replication and segregation. (87 citations)
  • Metabolite transfer with the fermentation product 2,3-butanediol enhances virulence by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. (68 citations)
  • LuxR-type quorum-sensing regulators that are detached from common scents. (66 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Stephen C. Winans mostly deals with Quorum sensing, Gene, DNA, Biochemistry and Microbiology. The various areas that Stephen C. Winans examines in his Quorum sensing study include Mutation, Virulence factor, Cosmid and Exotoxin. His research integrates issues of Molecular biology and Motility in his study of Gene.

His study with DNA involves better knowledge in Genetics. He performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Biochemistry and Proteobacteria via his papers. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Biofilm, Bacteria and Virulence.
