Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Y chromosome, Gene, Von Hippel–Lindau disease and Molecular biology. All of his Genetics and X chromosome, Chromosome, Haplotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Chromosomal translocation investigations are sub-components of the entire Genetics study. Nabeel A. Affara has researched Y chromosome in several fields, including Male infertility, Regulation of gene expression and Gene mapping.

His studies deal with areas such as Genetic marker, Nucleic acid sequence and Homology as well as Gene mapping. His studies in Von Hippel–Lindau disease integrate themes in fields like Germline mutation and Allele, Loss of heterozygosity. His Loss of heterozygosity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Clear cell renal cell carcinoma, Renal cell carcinoma, Cancer research and Locus.

His most cited work include:

  • Design of a High Density SNP Genotyping Assay in the Pig Using SNPs Identified and Characterized by Next Generation Sequencing Technology (634 citations)
  • Germline mutations in the Von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) gene in families from North America, Europe, and Japan. (419 citations)
  • Somatic mutations of the von Hippel — Lindau disease tumour suppressor gene in non-familial clear cell renal carcinoma (317 citations)

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

Nabeel A. Affara mainly investigates Genetics, Gene, Y chromosome, X chromosome and Molecular biology. His Gene mapping, Locus, Homology, Chromosome and Genetic marker investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His research in Chromosome tackles topics such as Sperm which are related to areas like Sex ratio, Spermatogenesis and Cell biology.

The concepts of his Y chromosome study are interwoven with issues in Gene duplication, Male infertility, Gene dosage, Regulation of gene expression and DNA sequencing. X chromosome is closely attributed to Genome in his work. His Molecular biology course of study focuses on Complementary DNA and genomic DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (72.11%)
  • Gene (35.26%)
  • Y chromosome (28.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Genetics (72.11%)
  • Y chromosome (28.95%)
  • Gene (35.26%)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, Y chromosome, Gene, Sperm and Chromosome. His Genetics study is mostly concerned with X chromosome, Copy-number variation, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene duplication and Allele. His Y chromosome study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lamin, Gene family, Intragenomic conflict, Intron and Polymerase chain reaction.

In general Gene, his work in Genomics, Intergenic region, Reprogramming and DNA methylation is often linked to Domestic pig linking many areas of study. His Sperm study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology, Nucleus, Cell biology, Nuclear morphology and Inbred strain. His research integrates issues of Sperm motility, Ploidy and Sex ratio in his study of Chromosome.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Identification of novel Y chromosome encoded transcripts by testis transcriptome analysis of mice with deletions of the Y chromosome long arm (83 citations)
  • Impact on offspring methylation patterns of maternal gestational diabetes mellitus and intrauterine growth restraint suggest common genes and pathways linked to subsequent type 2 diabetes risk (54 citations)
  • The pig X and Y Chromosomes: structure, sequence, and evolution (53 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Nabeel A. Affara focuses on Genetics, Gene, Y chromosome, X chromosome and Offspring. His work in Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Aneuploidy, Preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Allele and Locus are all subfields of Genetics research. His work in the fields of Gene, such as Genome, Reference genome and Genomics, intersects with other areas such as Domestic pig.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Sex ratio, Sperm, Sperm motility, Chromosome and Spermatogenesis in addition to Y chromosome. His X chromosome research integrates issues from Northern blot, Molecular genetics, Chromosome 16, Human genetics and Intron. His work deals with themes such as Endocrinology, Ploidy and Internal medicine, which intersect with Offspring.
