Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

Wei Yan mainly focuses on Cell biology, Genetics, microRNA, Spermatogenesis and RNA. His study in the fields of Cell signaling under the domain of Cell biology overlaps with other disciplines such as Stem cell factor. His microRNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molecular biology and Gene expression profiling.

His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nuclear protein and Germ cell. His Spermatogenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Dicer, Small interfering RNA and Ribonuclease III. His work in RNA addresses issues such as Epigenetics, which are connected to fields such as Paternal Inheritance, Transcriptome, TRNA Methyltransferase, DNA methylation and Inheritance of acquired characteristics.

His most cited work include:

  • Tissue-dependent paired expression of miRNAs (261 citations)
  • Epigenetic inheritance of acquired traits through sperm RNAs and sperm RNA modifications (234 citations)
  • Cloning and expression profiling of testis-expressed microRNAs (213 citations)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Genetics, Molecular biology, Spermatogenesis and Gene. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Apoptosis, Acrosome, Sertoli cell and Germ cell. Sperm, Piwi-interacting RNA, Epigenetics, microRNA and Small RNA are the core of his Genetics study.

The Sperm study combines topics in areas such as Male infertility and Cytoplasm. His Molecular biology research incorporates themes from Messenger RNA, Gene expression, Northern blot, Germ line development and Regulation of gene expression. His Spermatogenesis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Meiosis, Nuclear protein and Allele.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (44.12%)
  • Genetics (38.24%)
  • Molecular biology (26.47%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Cell biology (44.12%)
  • Computational biology (10.00%)
  • Gene (24.12%)

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

Wei Yan focuses on Cell biology, Computational biology, Gene, Epigenetics and Cas9. Wei Yan combines Cell biology and Dorsal root ganglion in his studies. His research integrates issues of Annotation, RNA-Seq, Sequence alignment and Deep sequencing in his study of Computational biology.

His research on Gene frequently links to adjacent areas such as Protein biosynthesis. His Epigenetics study also includes fields such as

  • Epigenome which is related to area like Sertoli cell, Male infertility and Stromal cell,
  • Pathology and related Spermatogenesis. His Protospacer adjacent motif study in the realm of Cas9 connects with subjects such as Moraxella bovoculi.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • m 6 A-dependent biogenesis of circular RNAs in male germ cells (36 citations)
  • m 6 A-dependent biogenesis of circular RNAs in male germ cells (36 citations)
  • Motile cilia of the male reproductive system require miR-34/miR-449 for development and function to generate luminal turbulence (32 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Pathology, Transcriptome, DNA methylation and Epigenetics. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Biogenesis, Gene, Germ cell, Protein biosynthesis and ORFS. His study in Pathology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Male infertility, Sertoli cell, Spermatogenesis and Epigenome.

With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Transcriptome and Prostate.
