Tokai University, Japan

Biography

 Takashi Horiuchim his areas of research interest is Genome Dynamics, especially the physiological role in DNA replication fork blocking events in E. coli and S. cerevisiae, successful conversion from the circular genome of E. coli to linear, molecular mechanism of gene amplification of rDNA in yeast and oncogene (drug-resistant gene) in higher eukaryotes, and molecular mechanism of DRCR (Double Rolling Circular Replication) in Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) and Chloroplast DNA. Dr. Horiuchi got Kihara Prize (2007) from Japan Society of Genetics for “Identification and characterization of DNA replication fork blocking event
