Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Gene expression
  • RNA

Her primary areas of study are Genetics, RasiRNA, Piwi-interacting RNA, Argonaute and RNA interference. Her study involves microRNA and Gene silencing, a branch of Genetics. Many of her studies on Piwi-interacting RNA involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Retrotransposon.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including RNA-induced silencing complex, RNA silencing, Small nucleolar RNA, Long non-coding RNA and Computational biology. Her work focuses on many connections between RNA silencing and other disciplines, such as Trans-acting siRNA, that overlap with her field of interest in Cell biology. Mikiko C. Siomi combines subjects such as Molecular biology, RNA-binding protein and Drosophila Protein with her study of RNA interference.

Her most cited work include:

  • Biogenesis of small RNAs in animals. (2471 citations)
  • A slicer-mediated mechanism for repeat-associated siRNA 5' end formation in Drosophila. (924 citations)
  • PIWI-interacting small RNAs: the vanguard of genome defence. (889 citations)

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

Mikiko C. Siomi mainly investigates Piwi-interacting RNA, Genetics, Cell biology, Gene silencing and Transposable element. Her study on Piwi-interacting RNA is covered under RNA. Her work on Genetics deals in particular with RasiRNA, RNA interference, Gene, Drosophila Protein and microRNA.

Her study in RasiRNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both RDE-1 and MiWi. Mikiko C. Siomi has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Messenger RNA, Mutant and Drosophila. The various areas that she examines in her Argonaute study include RNA-induced silencing complex, Small nucleolar RNA, Long non-coding RNA, RNA silencing and Small RNA.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Piwi-interacting RNA (67.14%)
  • Genetics (56.43%)
  • Cell biology (50.00%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Piwi-interacting RNA (67.14%)
  • Cell biology (50.00%)
  • Transposable element (34.29%)

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

Mikiko C. Siomi focuses on Piwi-interacting RNA, Cell biology, Transposable element, Gene silencing and RNA. Piwi-interacting RNA is a subfield of Genetics that she studies. Her research in Cell biology tackles topics such as Germline which are related to areas like Cellular differentiation.

Her Transposable element research incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology, RNA silencing and RNA-binding protein. Her Gene silencing study combines topics in areas such as Heterochromatin, Psychological repression, Histone methyltransferase and Organelle. Her studies deal with areas such as Transcription, Mutant and Bombyx as well as RNA.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Piwi Modulates Chromatin Accessibility by Regulating Multiple Factors Including Histone H1 to Repress Transposons. (80 citations)
  • Crystal Structure of Silkworm PIWI-Clade Argonaute Siwi Bound to piRNA (73 citations)
  • piRNA biogenesis in the germline: From transcription of piRNA genomic sources to piRNA maturation. (63 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Gene expression
  • RNA

Her primary areas of investigation include Piwi-interacting RNA, RNA, Transposable element, Cell biology and Gene silencing. Her Piwi-interacting RNA study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetics. Her Transposable element research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, RNA silencing, Orthologous Gene and Gene regulatory network.

The concepts of her Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Mutation, Ex vivo and CRISPR. Her Gene silencing study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutant and Germline. Her Argonaute research focuses on Small RNA and how it connects with Drosophila Protein, Effector and Guide RNA.
