Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

James M. Musser mostly deals with Genetics, Microbiology, Gene, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Virulence. His Microbiology study incorporates themes from Nucleic acid sequence and Streptococcus pyogenes. James M. Musser works mostly in the field of Streptococcus pyogenes, limiting it down to concerns involving Innate immune system and, occasionally, Phagocytosis.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Virology are connected with Clone and other disciplines. His Virulence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pathogen, Aconitase, Gene expression and Staphylococcus aureus. His study explores the link between Serotype and topics such as Streptococcus that cross with problems in Rheumatic fever.

His most cited work include:

  • Methods of multilocus enzyme electrophoresis for bacterial population genetics and systematics (1163 citations)
  • Molecular genetic basis of antimicrobial agent resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: 1998 update. (952 citations)
  • Restricted structural gene polymorphism in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex indicates evolutionarily recent global dissemination (931 citations)

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

James M. Musser mainly focuses on Microbiology, Genetics, Streptococcus pyogenes, Gene and Virulence. James M. Musser combines subjects such as Streptococcus and Virology with his study of Microbiology. James M. Musser has researched Streptococcus in several fields, including Group A, Immunology and Pharyngitis.

In his research on the topic of Genetics, Drug resistance is strongly related with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. His studies in Streptococcus pyogenes integrate themes in fields like Exotoxin, Biochemistry, Molecular biology and Cysteine protease. His Virulence research incorporates themes from Regulation of gene expression, Transcriptome, Gene expression and Mutant.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (56.82%)
  • Genetics (45.27%)
  • Streptococcus pyogenes (43.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Virulence (37.69%)
  • Microbiology (56.82%)
  • Streptococcus pyogenes (43.37%)

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

James M. Musser mainly investigates Virulence, Microbiology, Streptococcus pyogenes, Gene and Streptococcus. His Virulence study introduces a deeper knowledge of Genetics. His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Infectious disease, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pathogenic bacteria.

His Streptococcus pyogenes study combines topics in areas such as Mutation, Ampicillin and Pathogenesis. His study looks at the relationship between Gene and topics such as Amino acid, which overlap with Myositis, Nonsynonymous substitution and Streptococcus pneumoniae. His study looks at the relationship between Streptococcus and fields such as Group A, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Patients with Convalescent Plasma. (128 citations)
  • Treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Patients with Convalescent Plasma. (128 citations)
  • Treatment of Coronavirus Disease 2019 Patients with Convalescent Plasma Reveals a Signal of Significantly Decreased Mortality. (85 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virulence, Coronavirus disease 2019, Internal medicine, Streptococcus pyogenes and Genome. His Streptococcus pyogenes research includes themes of Mutation, Regulation of gene expression, Gene and Cell biology. His Gene research incorporates elements of Streptococcus, Group A and Serotype.

His study in Genome is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Virus and Virology. His Transcriptome study improves the overall literature in Genetics. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both In silico and Computational biology.
