Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Cellulosome, Dockerin, Cellulosome assembly and Clostridium thermocellum. The study of Cellulosome is intertwined with the study of Cellulosomes in a number of ways. His Cellulosomes study combines topics in areas such as Fusion protein and Protein–protein interaction.

The various areas that Yuval Shoham examines in his Dockerin study include Signal peptide and Cohesin domain. The concepts of his Clostridium thermocellum study are interwoven with issues in Clostridium, Clostridium cellulolyticum, Cellulose binding, Sequence analysis and Fungal protein. His research in Cellulose intersects with topics in Enzyme and Glycoside hydrolase.

His most cited work include:

  • The Cellulosomes: Multienzyme Machines for Degradation of Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides (731 citations)
  • Cellulose, cellulases and cellulosomes (445 citations)
  • Crystal structure of a bacterial family-III cellulose-binding domain: a general mechanism for attachment to cellulose. (416 citations)

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

Yuval Shoham mainly investigates Biochemistry, Cellulosome, Clostridium thermocellum, Enzyme and Glycoside hydrolase. His studies in Dockerin, Cellulase, Cellulose, Xylanase and Escherichia coli are all subfields of Biochemistry research. His study in Dockerin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Signal peptide, Cellulosome assembly, Protein–protein interaction and Cohesin domain.

In his study, Cellulosic ethanol is inextricably linked to Cellulosomes, which falls within the broad field of Cellulosome. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microbiology, Promoter, Gene, Sequence analysis and Clostridium cellulolyticum. Yuval Shoham has researched Glycoside hydrolase in several fields, including Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Glycosidic bond, Residue, Stereochemistry and Isothermal titration calorimetry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (52.72%)
  • Cellulosome (26.09%)
  • Clostridium thermocellum (23.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (52.72%)
  • Glycoside hydrolase (21.74%)
  • Cellulosome (26.09%)

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

Yuval Shoham focuses on Biochemistry, Glycoside hydrolase, Cellulosome, Clostridium thermocellum and Geobacillus stearothermophilus. His is involved in several facets of Biochemistry study, as is seen by his studies on Cellulase, Thermophile, Xylanase, Cellulose and Operon. His Glycoside hydrolase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Xylobiose, DNA, Escherichia coli, Arabinogalactan and Active site.

His Cellulosome research incorporates themes from Bacteria, Cellulosomes, Computational biology and Promoter. His Clostridium thermocellum research integrates issues from Genome, Gene, Bacillus subtilis and Microbiology. His Geobacillus stearothermophilus research incorporates elements of Crystallography, Glycosynthase and Galactan, Galactose.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Cellulase-Xylanase Synergy in Designer Cellulosomes for Enhanced Degradation of a Complex Cellulosic Substrate (101 citations)
  • Clostridium thermocellum cellulosomal genes are regulated by extracytoplasmic polysaccharides via alternative sigma factors (91 citations)
  • Deconstruction of Lignocellulose into Soluble Sugars by Native and Designer Cellulosomes (81 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • DNA

Yuval Shoham mostly deals with Biochemistry, Glycoside hydrolase, Cellulosome, Cellulase and Clostridium thermocellum. In his research on the topic of Glycoside hydrolase, Galactan, Galactose, Geobacillus stearothermophilus and Gel electrophoresis is strongly related with Active site. His Cellulosome research focuses on Cellulosomes and how it connects with Xylanase.

Cellulase is a subfield of Cellulose that Yuval Shoham explores. His studies in Clostridium thermocellum integrate themes in fields like Extracellular, Gene and Bacillus subtilis. His research in Substrate tackles topics such as Dockerin which are related to areas like Combinatorial chemistry.
