Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Virus

His main research concerns Virology, Hepatitis C virus, Hepatitis B virus, Nucleic acid sequence and Molecular biology. His Virology research incorporates themes from Antibody, Gene and Point mutation. His Hepatitis C virus study deals with the bigger picture of Virus.

His studies link Hepatitis C with Virus. His biological study focuses on Hepadnaviridae. He interconnects RNA, Hepatitis B and Transcription in the investigation of issues within HBeAg.

His most cited work include:

  • Typing hepatitis C virus by polymerase chain reaction with type-specific primers: application to clinical surveys and tracing infectious sources. (1221 citations)
  • Full-length sequence of a hepatitis C virus genome having poor homology to reported isolates: comparative study of four distinct genotypes. (551 citations)
  • Hepatitis B viruses with precore region defects prevail in persistently infected hosts along with seroconversion to the antibody against e antigen. (486 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Virology, Virus, Hepatitis B virus, Hepatitis C virus and Molecular biology. His Virology research incorporates elements of Genotype, Antibody and Polymerase chain reaction. His Virus study is associated with Immunology.

His work on Hepadnaviridae and HBeAg as part of his general Hepatitis B virus study is frequently connected to Affinity chromatography, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The various areas that Takeshi Tanaka examines in his Hepatitis C virus study include Viral hepatitis, Liver disease, Hepatitis C and Chronic liver disease. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gene, Mutant and Recombinant DNA in addition to Molecular biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (90.54%)
  • Virus (48.65%)
  • Hepatitis B virus (48.65%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1999-2018)?

  • Virology (90.54%)
  • Molecular biology (36.49%)
  • Virus (48.65%)

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

Takeshi Tanaka spends much of his time researching Virology, Molecular biology, Virus, Genotype and Untranslated region. He integrates Virology with National standard in his study. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both RNA, Mutant, DNA, Open reading frame and Hepatitis B virus.

His work deals with themes such as Epitope and Hepatitis B, which intersect with Hepatitis B virus. He specializes in Virus, namely Hepatitis C virus. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Genotype, Blood serum is strongly linked to Antibody.

Between 1999 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Circular Double-Stranded Forms of TT Virus DNA in the Liver (91 citations)
  • Differentiation of hepatitis B virus genotypes D and E by ELISA using monoclonal antibodies to epitopes on the preS2-region product. (85 citations)
  • Replicative forms of TT virus DNA in bone marrow cells. (80 citations)

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

  • DNA
  • Gene
  • Virus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Molecular biology, Virology, Virus, DNA and Restriction enzyme. Takeshi Tanaka has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including Polymerase chain reaction and Hepatitis B virus. His Polymerase chain reaction research includes elements of Agarose gel electrophoresis, Bone marrow and Agarose.

His Hepatitis B virus research integrates issues from Epitope, Antibody and Genotype. His Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Hepatitis B and Hepadnaviridae. His work carried out in the field of Gel electrophoresis brings together such families of science as DNA virus, Double stranded, Primer extension and EcoRI.
