Dr. Masatoshi Takeichi is an Honorary Scientist in RIKEN, and Professor Emeritus, Kyoto University. He completed the B. Sc. and M. S. programs in biology at Nagoya University before receiving a ...

We are interested in the molecular basis of bacterial pathogenesis in plants and animals. The plant model system that we are studying is the pathogenic interaction between Pseudomonas syringae and the ...

My laboratory studies genetic elements called group I and group II introns, which are found inserted within genes in diverse organisms. Although these introns are catalytic RNAs that under artificial ...

My long-standing interest has been in understanding at the molecular level how the vertebrate immune system achieves its diversity of functions and its exquisite specificity. My early research focused ...
