Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Aspergillus nidulans, Gene, Biochemistry, Genome and Genetics. His research combines Emodin and Aspergillus nidulans. The study incorporates disciplines such as Histone H3 Lysine 4, Histone, Functional genomics, Chromatin and Regulation of gene expression in addition to Emodin.

His Gene and Polyketide, Polyketide synthase and Secondary metabolite investigations all form part of his Gene research activities. Many of his research projects under Biochemistry are closely connected to Central element with Central element, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The various areas that Yi-Ming Chiang examines in his Genetics study include Fungi imperfecti and Computational biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Chromatin-level regulation of biosynthetic gene clusters (268 citations)
  • Chromatin-level regulation of biosynthetic gene clusters (268 citations)
  • A Gene Cluster Containing Two Fungal Polyketide Synthases Encodes the Biosynthetic Pathway for a Polyketide, Asperfuranone, in Aspergillus nidulans (196 citations)

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

Yi-Ming Chiang focuses on Aspergillus nidulans, Gene, Biochemistry, Genetics and Biosynthesis. Yi-Ming Chiang has researched Aspergillus nidulans in several fields, including Emodin, Secondary metabolism, Methylation and Transcription factor. His Methylation research integrates issues from Chromatin and Functional genomics.

Gene cluster, Secondary metabolite, Genome, Mutant and Nonribosomal peptide are subfields of Gene in which his conducts study. His study looks at the relationship between Biochemistry and topics such as Microbiology, which overlap with Melanin, Adenine nucleoside and Yeast. His work in Biosynthesis covers topics such as Strain which are related to areas like Fungi imperfecti and Coactivator.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Aspergillus nidulans (76.64%)
  • Gene (66.36%)
  • Biochemistry (62.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Aspergillus nidulans (76.64%)
  • Gene (66.36%)
  • Biosynthesis (39.25%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Aspergillus nidulans, Gene, Biosynthesis, Biochemistry and Genetics. Yi-Ming Chiang interconnects Polyene, Fungus, Polyketide and Microbiology in the investigation of issues within Aspergillus nidulans. His studies deal with areas such as Methyltransferase Gene, Methylation and Stereochemistry as well as Polyketide.

In his study, Protein subunit and Proteasome is strongly linked to Computational biology, which falls under the umbrella field of Gene. His work on Metabolism, Hypoxanthine and Primary metabolite as part of his general Biochemistry study is frequently connected to Front cover and Penicillium restrictum, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Secondary metabolite research incorporates elements of Base pair, Genome, Strain and Aspergillus.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Resistance Gene-Guided Genome Mining: Serial Promoter Exchanges in Aspergillus nidulans Reveal the Biosynthetic Pathway for Fellutamide B, a Proteasome Inhibitor. (56 citations)
  • Development of Genetic Dereplication Strains in Aspergillus nidulans Results in the Discovery of Aspercryptin. (55 citations)
  • Development of Genetic Dereplication Strains in Aspergillus nidulans Results in the Discovery of Aspercryptin. (55 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Gene, Genetics, Aspergillus nidulans, Secondary metabolism and Genetic screen. When carried out as part of a general Gene research project, his work on Secondary metabolite, Base pair, Strain and Biosynthesis is frequently linked to work in Aspercryptin, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Yi-Ming Chiang studies Aspergillus which is a part of Genetics.

His work deals with themes such as Proteasome inhibitor, Proteasome, Promoter and Protein subunit, which intersect with Secondary metabolism. His Genetic screen study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Regulation of gene expression, Transcription factor, Transcription and DNA sequencing.
