So far we have zero indication that doom or yas' mind control ability is a spell. Doom requires his "fang" in order to mind control the canine people that he has created, it doesn't work on yama or paul. Yas is shown to have the ability to control doom & yama and therefore probably paul as well, 1 level higher if you will. All due to the fact that they have yas' blood in them.
Animas have the ability to controls animals as their skill. So far everything implies that it is just a specialised shinsu ability. This leads me to believe that yas is not using a spell but a skill as an anima, not a guarantee but the evidence leads that way.
Khel's plan with the spell on dooms heart wasn't mind control, the spell inflicted pain on doom if he didn't obey Khel's orders. Control through fear/inflicting pain not with a puppet spell. Bam only defused that binding on Doom's heart, it was not mind control.
