Sven Thoms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sven Thoms (born 1970 in Geldern) is a German biochemist.

Thoms's research areas are peroxisomes, translational readthrough, dysferlin,[1] and rare diseases caused by defective cell organelles. Thoms and colleagues discovered a new isoform of lactate dehydrogenase that arises from translational readthrough.[2]
