  • Low-populated folding intermediates of Fyn SH3 characterized by relaxation dispersion NMR (368 citations)
  • Structural proteomics of an archaeon. (268 citations)

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

Alan R. Davidson mainly investigates Genetics, Biochemistry, Crystallography, CRISPR and SH3 domain. His Crystallography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sequence alignment, Biophysics, Protein folding, Folding and Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. His Protein folding study which covers Protein structure that intersects with Conserved sequence and Computational biology.

His CRISPR study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Genome, Mobile genetic elements and DNA. In his research, Cyclic nucleotide-binding domain is intimately related to Stereochemistry, which falls under the overarching field of SH3 domain. As a part of the same scientific family, Alan R. Davidson mostly works in the field of Gene, focusing on Pseudomonas aeruginosa and, on occasion, Microbiology and Mutation.

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

Alan R. Davidson mainly focuses on CRISPR, DNA, Bacteria, Cell biology and Mobile genetic elements. His studies in CRISPR integrate themes in fields like RNA, Computational biology and Function. Alan R. Davidson has included themes like Psychological repression, Genome, Binding site and Mutagenesis in his DNA study.

The concepts of his Bacteria study are interwoven with issues in Type VI secretion system, Biochemistry, Escherichia coli Proteins and Pyocyanin. Within one scientific family, Alan R. Davidson focuses on topics pertaining to In vitro under Mobile genetic elements, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Mutant. His study with Pseudomonas aeruginosa involves better knowledge in Genetics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Anti-CRISPR: discovery, mechanism and function (172 citations)
  • Potent Cas9 Inhibition in Bacterial and Human Cells by AcrIIC4 and AcrIIC5 Anti-CRISPR Proteins. (43 citations)
  • A Unified Resource for Tracking Anti-CRISPR Names. (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Alan R. Davidson spends much of his time researching CRISPR, Gene, Mobile genetic elements, DNA and Computational biology. The study of CRISPR is intertwined with the study of Library science in a number of ways. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacteria, Glycosylation and Microbiology.

His Mobile genetic elements research entails a greater understanding of Genetics. In his study, Promoter, Repressor, Cell biology and Transcription is inextricably linked to Genome, which falls within the broad field of DNA. Alan R. Davidson has researched Computational biology in several fields, including Biological evolution, Horizontal gene transfer and Function.
