Scholar-generated biography
Seung-Yeol Park's research focuses on organelle dynamics, membrane trafficking, and glycosylation. His work explores the role of these processes in cellular functions, including tumor invasiveness, starvation responses, and disease mechanisms. Park investigates how signaling pathways, such as Ror2 and Bcl-xL, influence Golgi structure and transport. His studies also examine the impact of glycosylation on proteins like β-haptoglobin and erythropoietin, with applications in cancer biomarker development. Additionally, he explores the interplay between gangliosides, tetraspanins, and the epidermal growth factor receptor in cell motility. Park's research highlights the importance of glycomic profiling and the regulation of intracellular transport pathways under stress conditions.
