معرفی
Dr. Peter Major is a researcher affiliated with Newcastle University, focusing on molecular biology, parasitology, and evolutionary genetics. His work centers on transporter proteins in parasitic organisms, particularly Microsporidia and related fungal endoparasites, investigating mechanisms like nutrient salvage and evolutionary adaptation.
Research Interests
- Molecular characterization of purine/nucleotide transporters in parasitic protists
- Evolutionary innovations in transporter gene acquisition
- Comparative genomics of intracellular parasites
- Phylogenetic diversity of NTT proteins across free-living and parasitic species
Selected Publications
2019: Identified novel cell surface purine transporters in Microsporidia; 2018: Explored gene transfer in Microsporidia evolution; 2017: Analyzed NTT protein diversity; 2014: Studied transport proteins in parasitic protists.
