His Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein D research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pulmonary Surfactant-Associated Protein A and Microbiology.
His work investigates the relationship between Cell biology and topics such as Classical complement pathway that intersect with problems in Acquired immune system and Antibody opsonization.
He combines subjects such as Receptor, Protein domain, Cell adhesion molecule and Complement with his study of Complement system.
His most cited work include:
- Purification and characterization of a peptide from amyloid-rich pancreases of type 2 diabetic patients (1089 citations)
- Surfactant proteins SP-A and SP-D : Structure, function and receptors (412 citations)
- C1q: structure, function, and receptors. (364 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Immunology, Complement system and Collectin.
Amino acid, Lectin, Peptide sequence, Binding site and Receptor are among the areas of Biochemistry where the researcher is concentrating his efforts.
As part of one scientific family, Kenneth B. M. Reid deals mainly with the area of Molecular biology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Complementary DNA, and often Nucleic acid sequence.
In his study, Complement component 2, Factor H, Complement membrane attack complex and Complement receptor is inextricably linked to Cell biology, which falls within the broad field of Complement system.
He works mostly in the field of Collectin, limiting it down to topics relating to Surfactant protein D and, in certain cases, Alveolar macrophage and Pulmonary surfactant, as a part of the same area of interest.
His research integrates issues of C1q domain and Complement C1q in his study of Classical complement pathway.
