Microbiology, Genetics, Multilocus sequence typing, Penicillin binding proteins and Streptococcus pneumoniae are his primary areas of study. Christopher G. Dowson combines subjects such as Molecular epidemiology and Staphylococcus aureus with his study of Microbiology. His study looks at the relationship between Genetics and topics such as Serotype, which overlap with Restriction enzyme.
The concepts of his Multilocus sequence typing study are interwoven with issues in Sequence analysis, Phylogenetics, Typing and Burkholderia cepacia complex, Burkholderia contaminans. He interconnects Neisseria meningitidis and Peptide sequence in the investigation of issues within Penicillin binding proteins. His Streptococcus pneumoniae research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic transfer, Penicillin, Streptococcus, Streptococcus mitis and Cefotaxime.
His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Genetics, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Multilocus sequence typing and Gene. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Burkholderia cepacia complex and Virulence. His Streptococcus pneumoniae study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Serotype, Antibacterial agent and Streptococcaceae.
The study incorporates disciplines such as DNA profiling, Phylogenetics, Typing and Sequence analysis in addition to Multilocus sequence typing. Nucleic acid sequence is the focus of his Gene research. His work carried out in the field of Penicillin binding proteins brings together such families of science as Genetic transfer and Cefotaxime.
His main research concerns Enzyme, Biochemistry, Peptidoglycan, Antibiotics and Microbiology. His work on Biosynthesis as part of general Enzyme study is frequently linked to Vaborbactam, bridging the gap between disciplines. In his study, Cytotoxicity, Chelation and Biofilm is strongly linked to Staphylococcus aureus, which falls under the umbrella field of Biochemistry.
His research on Peptidoglycan also deals with topics like
Christopher G. Dowson focuses on Enzyme, Bacteria, Antimicrobial, Biochemistry and Combinatorial chemistry. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Enzyme, concentrating on Covalent bond and intersecting with Serine and Bicyclic molecule. His Bacteria research includes elements of Biocompatibility, Cationic polymerization, Organic chemistry and Polymer.
Antimicrobial is a subfield of Microbiology that he studies. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including HEK 293 cells, Pyrophosphatase and Protein structure. His Peptidoglycan study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hydrolase, Catalytic triad, Cell envelope and Oxyanion hole.
