Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Biochemistry

Wolfgang Buckel mostly deals with Biochemistry, Dehydratase, Enzyme, Ferredoxin and Stereochemistry. His research in Biochemistry intersects with topics in Anaerobic bacteria and Bacteria. The Dehydratase study combines topics in areas such as Lyase, Dithionite and Archaeoglobus.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Hydroxylamine and Metabolism in addition to Enzyme. His studies deal with areas such as Dehydrogenase, Electron-transferring flavoprotein, Flavin group, Acidaminococcus and Oxidoreductase as well as Ferredoxin. His Stereochemistry research incorporates themes from Coenzyme B, Medicinal chemistry, Glyoxylic acid, Molecular mass and Isomerase.

His most cited work include:

  • Methanogenic archaea: ecologically relevant differences in energy conservation. (1128 citations)
  • A 3-Hydroxypropionate/4-Hydroxybutyrate Autotrophic Carbon Dioxide Assimilation Pathway in Archaea (483 citations)
  • Energy conservation via electron bifurcating ferredoxin reduction and proton/Na+ translocating ferredoxin oxidation (463 citations)

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

Wolfgang Buckel mainly investigates Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Enzyme, Dehydratase and Cofactor. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Bacteria and Biochemistry. The concepts of his Stereochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Active site, Mutase, Radical, Organic chemistry and Coenzyme A.

His Enzyme research includes elements of Molecular biology, Fermentation and Decarboxylation. Wolfgang Buckel has included themes like Ketyl, Dithionite, Iron–sulfur cluster, Electron transfer and Leucine in his Dehydratase study. Wolfgang Buckel interconnects Ferredoxin, NAD+ kinase and Flavin group in the investigation of issues within Dehydrogenase.

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

Wolfgang Buckel focuses on Biochemistry, Stereochemistry, Dehydrogenase, Enzyme and Flavin group. Wolfgang Buckel has researched Biochemistry in several fields, including Molecular biology, Clostridium kluyveri and Bacteria. His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Anaerobic bacteria, Cofactor, Active site, Photochemistry and Coenzyme A.

His studies in Dehydrogenase integrate themes in fields like Acidaminococcus fermentans and NAD+ kinase. His work in the fields of Enzyme, such as Isocitrate dehydrogenase, Dehydratase and Lyase, overlaps with other areas such as Syntrophus aciditrophicus. The various areas that he examines in his Flavin group study include Semiquinone, Flavoprotein, Electron transfer, Ferredoxin and Electron acceptor.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Energy conservation via electron bifurcating ferredoxin reduction and proton/Na+ translocating ferredoxin oxidation (463 citations)
  • Chain Elongation with Reactor Microbiomes: Open-Culture Biotechnology To Produce Biochemicals. (201 citations)
  • Chain Elongation with Reactor Microbiomes: Open-Culture Biotechnology To Produce Biochemicals. (201 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Catalysis

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ferredoxin, Biochemistry, Dehydrogenase, Stereochemistry and Flavin group. His work carried out in the field of Ferredoxin brings together such families of science as Oxidoreductase, Flavin adenine dinucleotide, Reductase and Photochemistry. His study involves Enzyme and Archaea, a branch of Biochemistry.

Wolfgang Buckel specializes in Dehydrogenase, namely Electron-transferring flavoprotein. His Stereochemistry research includes themes of Anaerobic bacteria, Dioxygenase and Mutagenesis. His Flavin group research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Flavodoxin and Semiquinone.
