Chris Mowat is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh specializing in Bioinorganic Chemistry. He serves as the Director of Teaching and is actively involved in research focused on redox proteins and enzymology. His research interests include protein crystallography, enzyme mechanisms, and the investigation of bacterial respiration. Key areas of his work focus on the kynurenine pathway and the enzymes involved, such as Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). Mowat's studies involve determining the X-ray structures of various heme-containing enzymes and exploring their roles in important biochemical processes, including the nitrogen cycle. He is particularly interested in the molecular properties of these enzymes and their potential activities, such as nitric oxide dioxygenase. Mowat's work contributes significantly to the understanding of enzymatic processes involved in bacterial metabolism.
