Jae‐Kyun Ko

Jae-Kyun Ko's work spans several areas of molecular and cellular biology, including how cells regulate programmed cell death, how ion channels (proteins that control the flow of charged particles across cell membranes) function, and how mitochondria (the cell's energy-producing structures) are affected in disease. Recent publications touch on topics such as muscle-related repair proteins, immune cell signaling, lung inflammation from environmental exposures, and cell death pathways in cancer. The work draws on techniques from proteomics, cell biology, and biochemistry, applied across contexts like cancer, cardiac and skeletal muscle biology, and immune/inflammatory conditions.

Publication output has been modest but variable over the past decade, with a recent increase in output in 2025 following several years of low-to-moderate activity.
