Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Yoko Satta mainly focuses on Genetics, Gene, Nonsynonymous substitution, Allele and Mitochondrial DNA. She combines Genetics and Gorilla in her studies. Her Nonsynonymous substitution research focuses on Mutation rate and how it connects with Balancing selection and Major histocompatibility complex.

Her work on Heteroplasmy as part of general Mitochondrial DNA study is frequently linked to Mauritiana, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her Effective population size research includes themes of Evolutionary biology and Old World monkey, Primate. The study incorporates disciplines such as Brassica oleracea, Genetic variation, Sequence analysis and Sequence alignment in addition to Haplotype.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Molecular Descent of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (305 citations)
  • Loss of Urate Oxidase Activity in Hominoids and its Evolutionary Implications (293 citations)
  • Inactivation of CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid hydroxylase occurred prior to brain expansion during human evolution (249 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Gene, Evolutionary biology, Major histocompatibility complex and Allele. Her work is connected to Locus, Haplotype, Pseudogene, Balancing selection and Nonsynonymous substitution, as a part of Genetics. Her Nonsynonymous substitution study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Natural selection and Mutation rate.

Yoko Satta usually deals with Evolutionary biology and limits it to topics linked to Lineage and Divergence and Effective population size. Her research investigates the link between Major histocompatibility complex and topics such as Human leukocyte antigen that cross with problems in Epitope and Catarrhini. Her Phylogenetic tree study incorporates themes from Genetic variation and Primate.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (72.15%)
  • Gene (41.77%)
  • Evolutionary biology (27.22%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Gene (41.77%)
  • Genetics (72.15%)
  • Evolutionary biology (27.22%)

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

Yoko Satta mainly investigates Gene, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Allele frequency and Haplotype. Yoko Satta has researched Gene in several fields, including Rana ornativentris and Cell biology. Her Genetics research incorporates elements of Rana japonica and Population genetics.

Yoko Satta interconnects Synonymous substitution, Natural selection, Genome, Molecular evolution and Mutation in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology. Her Haplotype research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Lactase persistence and Adaptive evolution. Her Allele research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lineage and Locus.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A new inference method for detecting an ongoing selective sweep (9 citations)
  • Positive selection on schizophrenia-associated ST8SIA2 gene in post-glacial Asia. (7 citations)
  • Two-dimensional site frequency spectrum for detecting, classifying and dating incomplete selective sweeps. (5 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Yoko Satta focuses on Gene, Evolutionary biology, Selective sweep, Linkage disequilibrium and Allele frequency. Borrowing concepts from CD151, Yoko Satta weaves in ideas under Gene. Her Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Synonymous substitution, Natural selection, Nonsynonymous substitution and Molecular evolution.

The various areas that Yoko Satta examines in her Selective sweep study include False discovery rate, Most recent common ancestor, Mutation and Coalescent theory. Her Linkage disequilibrium research integrates issues from Locus, Computational biology and ASPM. Her research in Allele frequency intersects with topics in SNP, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Promoter.
