Excited that I’ll be starting my own lab at Dana-Farber Chemical Biology Program and Dept. of BCMP Harvard Medical School in Spring 2022! Check out our new website: zhou-lab.org. Many thanks to my family, friends, collaborators, and mentors Michael Lin, MD PhD 🧬 Jim Wells for the unwavering support!

Burt et al.'s rapid and robust method greatly simplifies the analysis of O-GlcNAc signaling and will help to elucidate the role of this challenging PTM in health and disease ― Samuel A Myers Broad Institute La Jolla Institute Stacy Malaker #glycotime mcponline.org/article/S1535-…

A huge congratulations to Ben (who refuses to get a Twitter account!). What a time for ABPP & chemoproteomics. I could not have dreamed of a better mentor and, now, colleague Scripps Research !

New preprint on a transcriptional reporter of cell-cell contacts (TRACC)! Trans-cellular binding bw peptide ligand & GPCR recruits arrestin-TEV for proteolytic release of TF, when blue light is present. We used TRACC to detect neuron-glioma contacts... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Incredibly excited to share my graduate work, and the latest from the Taunton lab UC San Francisco! We think this will open a new dimension of surveillance pathways for elongating ribosomes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Just in! First selfie from our 2022 #NobelPrize laureate in chemistry Carolyn Bertozzi. Congratulations!

Woohoo! Big congrats to Jiaqi Shen, Lequn Geng and Xingyu Li for all their collaborative work leading to a brand new publication in Nature Methods! Our group teamed up with Prof Peng Li’s Lab 👏🏻!!! (UMLifeSciences & UM SchoolofDentistry) nature.com/articles/s4159…

Please check out Alice’s wonderful talk at ASCB including our TransitID work!

Happy new year 2023! Glad to share our recent paper at Nature Chemical Biology Nature Chemical Biology on predicting metal-binding sites in proteomes using machine learning. You can read it at rdcu.be/c2DI1

I'm delighted to present this story from the Taunton lab UC San Francisco in its final form! authors.elsevier.com/a/1gPf4L7PXiq%…

Excited to share my work J. Am. Chem. Soc. on using inactivated botulinum toxin for cytosolic delivery of proteins. A big thank you to my advisor Alice Ting, to co-author Prof. Dorner, and to all Tinglab members for making our lab such an enjoyable place to be. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Congrats to my incredible advisor Alice Alice Ting on being selected as a NAS member! Your contributions and dedication to multiple fields have been truly remarkable. You are so well-deserved, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to learn and work under your mentorship.

thrilled to see TransitID out! It has been an incredible and unforgettable journey collaborating with an amazing team. A million thanks to my mentor, Alice. This marks a great milestone as a postdoc, and I am eagerly looking forward to embarking on new adventures at Tsinghua.

Awesome paper from Jack Taunton’s lab ⁦UC San Francisco⁩ on direct mapping of ligandable tyrosines and lysines in cells with chiral sulfonyl fluoride probes using chemoproteomics! nature.com/articles/s4155…
