His primary areas of study are Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Ran, Cell biology and DNA replication factor CDT1. The concepts of his Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Chromatin, Premature chromosome condensation, Mitosis, Complementary DNA and Nuclear protein. His study looks at the relationship between Nuclear protein and topics such as Nuclear matrix, which overlap with Peptide sequence.

His Ran research incorporates elements of RANBP2, GTPase, Microtubule, Centrosome and Importin. His study in the fields of Transport protein under the domain of Cell biology overlaps with other disciplines such as Lipid bilayer, Inner membrane and Membrane transport protein. His DNA replication factor CDT1 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Origin recognition complex, Geminin and Licensing factor.

His most cited work include:

  • The Cdt1 protein is required to license DNA for replication in fission yeast. (421 citations)
  • A giant nucleopore protein that binds Ran/TC4. (411 citations)
  • Two E3 ubiquitin ligases, SCF-Skp2 and DDB1-Cul4, target human Cdt1 for proteolysis. (325 citations)

Takeharu Nishimoto mainly focuses on Molecular biology, Cell biology, Mutant, Ran and Biochemistry. Takeharu Nishimoto has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including Chromatin, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Guanine nucleotide exchange factor and Complementary DNA. His Complementary DNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microtubule and Immunoprecipitation.

His research integrates issues of Nuclear protein, Nuclear lamina and Chromosome segregation in his study of Cell biology. His Mutant research includes themes of Spindle apparatus, Cytokinesis, Mutation, DEAD box and RNA Helicase A. His Ran research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Mitosis, Cell division, Multipolar spindles and RanGAP.

Between 2002 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Two E3 ubiquitin ligases, SCF-Skp2 and DDB1-Cul4, target human Cdt1 for proteolysis. (325 citations)
  • ALS2, a novel guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the small GTPase Rab5, is implicated in endosomal dynamics (203 citations)
  • Energy- and temperature-dependent transport of integral proteins to the inner nuclear membrane via the nuclear pore (123 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Takeharu Nishimoto mainly investigates Molecular biology, Cell biology, Licensing factor, Geminin and DNA replication. His Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Mutant, Microtubule, Guanine nucleotide exchange factor, DEAD box and RNA Helicase A. His Small GTPase and Transport protein study, which is part of a larger body of work in Cell biology, is frequently linked to Integral membrane protein and Membrane transport protein, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His research integrates issues of Endosome, Vacuolar protein sorting and Pleckstrin homology domain in his study of Small GTPase. The Licensing factor study combines topics in areas such as Chromatin, Ubiquitin and DNA replication factor CDT1. His Geminin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Proteolysis, Origin recognition complex, Cyclin A and Cell division control protein 4.
