Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Formylglycine-generating enzyme, Cysteine, Sulfatase and Sulfation. Biochemistry is represented through his Endoplasmic reticulum, Cofactor, Oxidoreductase, Enzyme and ATP–ADP translocase research. His Formylglycine-generating enzyme research incorporates themes from Residue, Active site, Multiple sulfatase deficiency, Gene and Stereochemistry.

His studies deal with areas such as Efflux, Aldehyde and Binding site as well as Stereochemistry. His research integrates issues of Peptide sequence and Serine in his study of Cysteine. Thomas Dierks interconnects Heparan sulfate, SULF1 and Fibroblast growth factor in the investigation of issues within Sulfation.

His most cited work include:

  • Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency Is Caused by Mutations in the Gene Encoding the Human Cα-Formylglycine Generating Enzyme (317 citations)
  • Molecular basis for multiple sulfatase deficiency and mechanism for formylglycine generation of the human formylglycine-generating enzyme. (146 citations)
  • 1.3 Å structure of arylsulfatase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa establishes the catalytic mechanism of sulfate ester cleavage in the sulfatase family (143 citations)

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

Thomas Dierks mostly deals with Biochemistry, Sulfatase, Formylglycine-generating enzyme, Multiple sulfatase deficiency and Cysteine. His is involved in several facets of Biochemistry study, as is seen by his studies on Endoplasmic reticulum, Enzyme, Heparan sulfate, Residue and Active site. He has researched Heparan sulfate in several fields, including Sulfation and Fibroblast growth factor.

His Formylglycine-generating enzyme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microsome, Gene and Arylsulfatase. His Multiple sulfatase deficiency study which covers Ichthyosis that intersects with Metachromatic leukodystrophy. He focuses mostly in the field of Cysteine, narrowing it down to topics relating to Serine and, in certain cases, Alanine and Aldehyde.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (54.96%)
  • Sulfatase (31.30%)
  • Formylglycine-generating enzyme (28.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (54.96%)
  • Multiple sulfatase deficiency (20.61%)
  • Sulfatase (31.30%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Multiple sulfatase deficiency, Sulfatase, Cysteine and Formylglycine-generating enzyme. His research in Multiple sulfatase deficiency intersects with topics in Ichthyosis, Protein disulfide-isomerase, Natural history, Internal medicine and Metachromatic leukodystrophy. His Sulfatase research incorporates elements of Heparan sulfate and Inflammation.

The concepts of his Cysteine study are interwoven with issues in Immobilized enzyme, Bioconjugation and Residue. His Bioconjugation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Amino acid and Serine. The Formylglycine-generating enzyme study combines topics in areas such as Missense mutation and Congenital disorder.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The function of the oxylipin 12-oxophytodienoic acid in cell signaling, stress acclimation, and development. (23 citations)
  • A homozygous founder missense variant in arylsulfatase G abolishes its enzymatic activity causing atypical Usher syndrome in humans. (15 citations)
  • Formylglycine-generating enzymes for site-specific bioconjugation. (13 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Cysteine, Immobilized enzyme, Enzyme and Bioconjugation. His Function research extends to Biochemistry, which is thematically connected. His research on Cysteine frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Residue.

His Residue study incorporates themes from Sodium dodecyl sulfate and Formylglycine-generating enzyme. His studies in Immobilized enzyme integrate themes in fields like Turnover number, Aldehyde tag, Serine and Recombinant DNA. His study in Enzyme is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Amino acid, Target protein, Peptide and Bioorthogonal chemistry.
