We had an NIG international symposium on Genome Editing on July 4th and 5th. Famous figures in genome editing field such as Editing. Drs. Feng Zhang and JinSoo Kim were invited.


Together with summer intern students, we climbed Mt. Fuji.


Outside of NIG is full of cherry blossoms in early April.


Though cherry trees around NIG bloomed later than usual, they are very beautiful.

We went to a Unagi (eel) restaurant on the final day for Yu-Heng Hsieh, an intern student, staying at NIG


The lab members in October, 2017


A formar lab member, Dr. George Watase, who is currently in Michigan as a post-doc, visited our lab on a sunny autumn day. He is going to get married soon. Many congratulations!!

On 26th of July, we went to lunch with our intern student, Aisha, to eat Japanese eel (Unagi).

Kanemaki's ex-students visited the lab.


Ms. Aisha Yesbolatova of Kazakhstan joined our lab as an internstudent on 1st of July. She is studying with us for one month.

Together with Kitagawa lab, we had a farewell party for Dr. Matsuura, who worked in Kitagawa lab for almost five years. Many thanks for sharing a good time!!

Dr. Matsuura, a post-doc in Kitagawa lab, published a new paper. Many congratulations!!

Kanemaki and Natsume presented latest results in the chromosome workshop that was held in Matsushima in Tohoku.

The lab members in 2015. Hirose, Kamada, MIzuguchi, Kanemaki, Natsume, and Kanehara from left to right.

Kanemaki and Natsume attended the 3R symposium held at Gotemba in November.


February 26th, 2014, Dr. Feng Zhang, who developed the CRISPR/Cas technology, came to NIG for giving a seminar.


The lab members when we came to NIG in 2011. Nishimura, Kanemaki, Watase, and Mizuguchi from left to right.


A picture when we started the lab.

NIG is located in Mishima which is close to Mt. Fuji. On a sunny day, we can see the mountain nicely. NIG can be seen at the bottom in this picture.

NIG is famous for cherry blossom. There are hundreds of different types of cherry trees in the campus.


Azaleas are also beautiful in spring.


Autumn leaves of ginkgo and maple can bee seen.


There are many water springs in Mishima, water of which come from Mt.Fuji.


There is a plant, Mishima baikamo (三島梅花藻), grows in spring water.


In Mishima, there are many restaurants which serve Japanese eels called Kabayaki. You can order a huge rice bowl with eels.

Assistant Prof. Yukosuke Yamaguchi has published a paper in Nature Communications as the first and co-corresponding author. In this paper, the contribution of UHRF1 to DNA methylation was analyzed in detail using the auxin-inducible degron technology. This research was conducted at the Defossez lab in Paris, and Prof. Kanemaki also participated as a collaborator.

2024.4.1

Dr. Kosuke Yamaguchi has joined our lab as an assistant professor.

2024.3.23

Our collaborative research findings have been published in Science. In this paper, we found that DONSON as a novel DNA replication factor essential for the formation of the CMG helicase during the replication initiation process. Our research group generated DONSON-degron cells. For more detailed information, please visit here.

2023.8.3

Our collaborative research findings have been published in Nature. We provided degron cells of WAPL, which controls the amount of chromatin-bound cohesin.

2023.6.7

Our PhD student, Yuki Hatoyama, gave an oral presentation at the 3R Workshop (Kyushu University) and received the Student Award. Congratulations!
