Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Guo-Lei Zhou's research investigates the molecular mechanisms governing cell migration, cytoskeletal dynamics, and signal transduction pathways. His work has focused on the roles of proteins such as Pak1, CAP1, and cofilin in cellular processes. Zhou has examined how phosphorylation events, including those mediated by Akt and c-Abl, influence protein interactions and downstream signaling that affects cell movement and adhesion. His publications also explore the involvement of these proteins in apoptosis and the metastatic potential of cancer cells, particularly breast cancer. Collaborations within Arkansas State University include shared publications with Jennifer Y. Xie, Krishna Deo Sharma, Auburn Ramsey, and Jianfeng Xu. Zhou has an h-index of 16 and has authored 29 publications with a total of 945 citations.
