Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Thomas G. Bernhardt mainly focuses on Cell biology, Biochemistry, Escherichia coli, Cell wall and Peptidoglycan. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Cytoskeleton, FtsZ, Cell division and Cytokinesis. His work carried out in the field of Biochemistry brings together such families of science as Bacillus subtilis and Function.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytoplasm and Mutant. His Cytoplasm research focuses on subjects like Lipid II, which are linked to Plasma protein binding and Divisome complex. His Cell wall research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Polymerase, Biogenesis, Penicillin binding proteins and Bacterial cell structure.

His most cited work include:

  • SlmA, a Nucleoid-Associated, FtsZ Binding Protein Required for Blocking Septal Ring Assembly over Chromosomes in E. coli (432 citations)
  • Beta-lactam antibiotics induce a lethal malfunctioning of the bacterial cell wall synthesis machinery. (287 citations)
  • The Escherichia coli amidase AmiC is a periplasmic septal ring component exported via the twin-arginine transport pathway (277 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Peptidoglycan, Cell biology, Cell wall, Biochemistry and Escherichia coli. His study in Peptidoglycan is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell, Biogenesis, Mutant, Bacterial cell structure and Penicillin binding proteins. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytokinesis, FtsZ, Cell division and Cytoskeleton.

His work in the fields of Lipid II overlaps with other areas such as Cytolysis. His Biochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lytic cycle and Bacillus subtilis. His Escherichia coli research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transport protein and Function.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Peptidoglycan (83.33%)
  • Cell biology (70.59%)
  • Cell wall (63.73%)

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

  • Peptidoglycan (83.33%)
  • Cell wall (63.73%)
  • Cell biology (70.59%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Peptidoglycan, Cell wall, Cell biology, Biogenesis and Escherichia coli. His Peptidoglycan research incorporates themes from Cell, Cell division, Cell envelope and Mutant. His Cell wall study is concerned with the field of Biochemistry as a whole.

His work on Cofactor as part of general Biochemistry research is often related to Bifunctional, thus linking different fields of science. His studies deal with areas such as MreB, Cytokinesis, Bacterial cell structure and Molecular replacement as well as Cell biology. His work in the fields of Escherichia coli, such as Bacterial outer membrane, overlaps with other areas such as Inner membrane.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • FtsW is a peptidoglycan polymerase that is functional only in complex with its cognate penicillin-binding protein. (118 citations)
  • FtsW is a peptidoglycan polymerase that is functional only in complex with its cognate penicillin-binding protein. (118 citations)
  • A central role for PBP2 in the activation of peptidoglycan polymerization by the bacterial cell elongation machinery. (52 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His main research concerns Peptidoglycan, Cell wall, Cell biology, Plasma protein binding and Protein structure. The concepts of his Peptidoglycan study are interwoven with issues in Transmembrane domain, Cell fusion and Thermus thermophilus, Escherichia coli. In general Escherichia coli, his work in Bacterial outer membrane is often linked to Inner membrane linking many areas of study.

Cell wall is a primary field of his research addressed under Biochemistry. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cell cycle, Bacterial cell structure, MreB and Cytokinesis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biogenesis and Lysis in addition to Enzyme.
