Naomichi Takemata studies how microorganisms physically organize their genetic material inside cells, with a focus on archaea (a domain of single-celled life) and their chromosome structure. Using techniques such as chromosome conformation capture (mapping which parts of DNA are near each other in 3D) and cryo-electron microscopy, the research examines how proteins and DNA structure shape genome folding, especially in heat-loving (hyperthermophilic) organisms. Earlier work also explored gene regulation and chromatin organization in yeast.
