    Joint Author, Akieda-Asai S, Zaima N, Ikegami K, Kahyo T, Yao I, Hatanaka T, Iemura S, Sugiyama R, Yokozeki T, Eishi Y, Koike M, Ikeda K, Chiba T, Yamaza H, Shimokawa I, Song SY, Matsuno A, Mizutani A, Sa, Jul. 2010, Peer-reviewed
  • Pronuclear injection-based mouse targeted transgenesis for reproducible and highly efficient transgene expression
    Joint Author, Ohtsuka M, Ogiwara S, Miura H, Mizutani A et. al., Dec. 2010, Peer-reviewed
  • Modified S/MAR episomal vectors for stably expressing fluorescent-protein tagged transgenes with small cell-to-cell fluctuation
    Joint Author, Mizutani A, Shigenari A, Inoko H et.al., Lead, We modified and tested scaffold/matrix attachment region (S/MAR) episomal vectors. The new vectors would be useful in obtaining cells stably expressing fluorescent protein-tagged transgenes with small, mostly within 10-fold cell-to-cell fluctuations.  , Analytical Biochemistry, Aug. 2013
