In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Chromatin, Heterochromatin, Chromodomain and Heterochromatin protein 1.
His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Histone H3, Epigenetics, Histone, Nucleosome and Histone methylation.
His work in Histone methylation addresses issues such as Methyltransferase complex, which are connected to fields such as Chromatin immunoprecipitation.
His work deals with themes such as RNA, Nuclear protein and Proteomics, which intersect with Chromatin.
Heterochromatin is a subfield of Genetics that Jun-ichi Nakayama explores.
Jun-ichi Nakayama works mostly in the field of Euchromatin, limiting it down to topics relating to EZH2 and, in certain cases, Non-histone protein, RNA-induced transcriptional silencing and SUV39H1, as a part of the same area of interest.
Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Structural Basis of Heterochromatin Formation by Human HP1 (97 citations)
- Impact of nucleic acid and methylated H3K9 binding activities of Suv39h1 on its heterochromatin assembly. (42 citations)
- Impact of nucleic acid and methylated H3K9 binding activities of Suv39h1 on its heterochromatin assembly. (42 citations)
