Descripción
Ray Dixon has worked on genetic analysis of nitrogen fixation and biochemical characterisation of its transcriptional control for more than four decades. His current research focuses on signal transduction cascades that regulate nitrogen fixation genes in response to oxygen, carbon and fixed nitrogen status. He is also studying molecular mechanisms that control the activity of transcription factors in response to nitric oxide. A long-term goal of his research is to exploit and engineer nitrogen fixation genes for agricultural benefit.
