Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Molecular biology, DNA repair, DNA, Cell biology and DNA damage. His Molecular biology research incorporates themes from DNA glycosylase, Pyrimidine dimer, Nucleotide excision repair, Proliferating cell nuclear antigen and DNA replication. His research investigates the link between DNA repair and topics such as DNA polymerase that cross with problems in DNA polymerase beta.

His research integrates issues of Gene product and Gene, Mutant in his study of DNA. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cryptochrome, Transcription factor, DNA-binding protein and Circadian rhythm. Akira Yasui studied DNA damage and Endonuclease that intersect with Nucleolus.

His most cited work include:

  • Mammalian Cry1 and Cry2 are essential for maintenance of circadian rhythms. (1093 citations)
  • Photic induction of mPer1 and mPer2 in cry-deficient mice lacking a biological clock. (336 citations)
  • Cloning and Characterization of Mammalian 8-Hydroxyguanine-specific DNA Glycosylase/Apurinic, Apyrimidinic Lyase, a Functional mutM Homologue (307 citations)

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

Akira Yasui spends much of his time researching Molecular biology, DNA repair, Cell biology, DNA damage and Nucleotide excision repair. His study in Molecular biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both DNA glycosylase, Pyrimidine dimer, Biochemistry, DNA and Photolyase. His DNA repair research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mutation and DNA polymerase.

His Cell biology research incorporates elements of Genetics, Centrosome, Cryptochrome, Programmed cell death and Circadian rhythm. The study incorporates disciplines such as Chromatin and Proliferating cell nuclear antigen in addition to DNA damage. His Nucleotide excision repair study incorporates themes from Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Xeroderma pigmentosum, Chinese hamster ovary cell, Complementation and Transcription.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (43.75%)
  • DNA repair (29.91%)
  • Cell biology (22.32%)

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

  • Condensed matter physics (9.82%)
  • Photoemission spectroscopy (5.80%)
  • Fermi level (3.12%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Condensed matter physics, Photoemission spectroscopy, Fermi level, X ray photoemission and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Condensed matter physics and Valence in his work. Akira Yasui interconnects Antiferromagnetism and Engineering physics in the investigation of issues within Photoemission spectroscopy.

His studies in X ray photoemission integrate themes in fields like Chemical state, Molecular physics and Atomic physics. Akira Yasui has researched X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy in several fields, including Optoelectronics, Energy conversion efficiency and Binding energy. While the research belongs to areas of Magnetic moment, Akira Yasui spends his time largely on the problem of Superlattice, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Magnetic circular dichroism.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Electronic Structure of Ce-Doped and -Undoped Nd 2 CuO 4 Superconducting Thin Films Studied by Hard X-Ray Photoemission and Soft X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy (15 citations)
  • RACK1 regulates centriole duplication by controlling localization of BRCA1 to the centrosome in mammary tissue-derived cells (9 citations)
  • Relationship among DNA double-strand break (DSB), DSB repair, and transcription prevents genome instability and cancer. (8 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Akira Yasui focuses on Condensed matter physics, Cell biology, Photoemission spectroscopy, Electronic structure and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. His study in the field of Phonon and Quantum tunnelling is also linked to topics like Ferroelectric RAM and Polarization density. Akira Yasui works in the field of Cell biology, focusing on Lipid raft in particular.

The X ray photoemission research Akira Yasui does as part of his general Photoemission spectroscopy study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Current and SPring-8, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Cell cycle research integrates issues from HEK 293 cells, Cell culture, Centriole and DNA repair. His Genome instability research is within the category of DNA damage.
