Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Epigenetics

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Imprinting, Genomic imprinting, Gene and Allele. His specific area of interest is Genetics, where Thanh H. Vu studies CTCF. His Imprinting research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Divergent evolution, Locus and myr.

His research on Genomic imprinting often connects related areas such as Molecular biology. His work in the fields of Angelman syndrome, Base sequence and Insulin-like growth factor 2 overlaps with other areas such as UBE3A. His work in Allele addresses issues such as Carcinogenesis, which are connected to fields such as Chromosomal region, Wilms' tumor and Loss of heterozygosity.

His most cited work include:

  • Telomerase activity in human development is regulated by human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) transcription and by alternate splicing of hTERT transcripts (450 citations)
  • CTCF Mediates Interchromosomal Colocalization Between Igf2/H19 and Wsb1/Nf1 (418 citations)
  • Imprinting of the Angelman syndrome gene, UBE3A, is restricted to brain (251 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genomic imprinting, Molecular biology, Genetics, Imprinting and Gene. His Genomic imprinting research is under the purview of DNA methylation. His DNA methylation research incorporates elements of CTCF, Methylation and Antisense RNA.

His work carried out in the field of Molecular biology brings together such families of science as Histone H2A, Histone methyltransferase, Intron and Exon. His Imprinting research includes elements of Carcinogenesis, Growth factor, Insulin-like growth factor 2 and Angelman syndrome. His Gene expression research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Internal medicine, Wilms' tumor and Endocrinology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genomic imprinting (52.38%)
  • Molecular biology (49.21%)
  • Genetics (44.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2015)?

  • Genomic imprinting (52.38%)
  • Genetics (44.44%)
  • Epigenetics (20.63%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genomic imprinting, Genetics, Epigenetics, DNA methylation and Epigenomics. His work deals with themes such as Imprinting and Embryo, Cell biology, which intersect with Genomic imprinting. His Imprinting research focuses on Growth factor and how it relates to CTCF.

Thanh H. Vu is interested in Chromosome conformation capture, which is a branch of Genetics. His studies in Epigenetics integrate themes in fields like Regulation of gene expression and Methylation. His DNA methylation study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Molecular biology.

Between 2003 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • CTCF Mediates Interchromosomal Colocalization Between Igf2/H19 and Wsb1/Nf1 (418 citations)
  • CTCF Regulates Allelic Expression of Igf2 by Orchestrating a Promoter-Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 Intrachromosomal Loop (177 citations)
  • IVF results in de novo DNA methylation and histone methylation at an Igf2-H19 imprinting epigenetic switch (152 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Endocrinology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Histone H3, CTCF, Genomic imprinting, Epigenomics and Molecular biology. The concepts of his Histone H3 study are interwoven with issues in Histone H2A, Histone methyltransferase and RNA interference. His CTCF study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetics.

Transcription, Chromosome conformation capture, Gene, Enhancer and Insulin-like growth factor 2 are the primary areas of interest in his Genetics study. His Genomic imprinting study introduces a deeper knowledge of DNA methylation. His research in Histone intersects with topics in Methylation and Epigenetics.
