Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Thomas Leustek focuses on Biochemistry, Sulfate assimilation, Mutant, Sulfur assimilation and Serine O-acetyltransferase. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Sulfur cycle and Biochemistry. His Sulfate assimilation research includes themes of Molecular biology and Arabidopsis thaliana.

His study in Mutant is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genomic library, Microbiology and Methionine. His Sulfur assimilation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Assimilation, Structural gene and Gene family. His work in Serine O-acetyltransferase tackles topics such as Metabolism which are related to areas like Cysteine synthase and Biosynthesis.

His most cited work include:

  • PATHWAYS AND REGULATION OF SULFUR METABOLISM REVEALED THROUGH MOLECULAR AND GENETIC STUDIES (534 citations)
  • Sulfate Transport and Assimilation in Plants (407 citations)
  • Overexpression of ATP Sulfurylase in Indian Mustard Leads to Increased Selenate Uptake, Reduction, and Tolerance (373 citations)

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

Thomas Leustek mainly investigates Biochemistry, Arabidopsis thaliana, Enzyme, Sulfate assimilation and Mutant. His is involved in several facets of Biochemistry study, as is seen by his studies on Reductase, Methionine, Biosynthesis, Arabidopsis and Glutathione. His Arabidopsis thaliana study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Amino acid, Molecular biology, Cystathionine gamma-synthase and Threonine synthase.

His Enzyme research includes elements of Sulfite and Gene expression. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Enzyme assay and Sulfite reductase. The Mutant study which covers Escherichia coli that intersects with Thioredoxin, Microbiology and Heat shock protein.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (74.74%)
  • Arabidopsis thaliana (24.21%)
  • Enzyme (21.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2019)?

  • Biochemistry (74.74%)
  • Arabidopsis (16.84%)
  • Mutant (17.89%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Mutant, Arabidopsis thaliana and Methionine. Biochemistry is represented through his Biosynthesis, Reductase, Enzyme, Sulfur assimilation and Ferredoxin research. Thomas Leustek has included themes like Adenosine, Adenosine monophosphate and Sulfate assimilation in his Reductase study.

His work carried out in the field of Arabidopsis brings together such families of science as Sulfate transport, Isozyme and Cell biology. He regularly ties together related areas like Glutathione in his Mutant studies. His study looks at the relationship between Arabidopsis thaliana and topics such as Amino acid, which overlap with Binding domain, Serine and Thioredoxin fold.

Between 2008 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Arabidopsis thaliana Nfu2 accommodates [2Fe-2S] or [4Fe-4S] clusters and is competent for in vitro maturation of chloroplast [2Fe-2S] and [4Fe-4S] cluster-containing proteins. (67 citations)
  • Aberrant gene expression in the Arabidopsis SULTR1;2 mutants suggests a possible regulatory role for this sulfate transporter in response to sulfur nutrient status (45 citations)
  • Engineering sulfur storage in maize seed proteins without apparent yield loss. (29 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Methionine, Transgene, Storage protein and Arabidopsis. As part of his studies on Biochemistry, he often connects relevant areas like Vascular bundle. His Vascular bundle research integrates issues from Endosperm, Messenger RNA, Arabidopsis thaliana and Biosynthesis.

His Arabidopsis research incorporates elements of Sulfate transport and Glutathione. He interconnects Genetically modified maize, Food science and Reductase in the investigation of issues within Sulfur assimilation. His Cysteine desulfurase study combines topics in areas such as Structural gene, ISCU, Domain of unknown function, Iron–sulfur cluster and Ferredoxin.
