A new chemical labelling tool lets researchers watch the inflammatory receptor P2X7 reorganise and cluster on immune cells at the nanoscale, revealing how inflammatory signals reshape receptor behaviour in real time. elifesciences.org/articles/10609…

& What a wonderful surprise to meet Emeritus Professor Suh Young-junior, who is currently spending time at CMU as a visiting professor. It was an honor to finally meet him in person. #chiangmai #ACBI

In this morning, several members of ACBI also visited Department of Pharmacy Chiang Mai University, and it was really nice & well controlled environment for research. Thanks for warm welcome and kind introduction of department’s research.

It was my first visit for Chiang Mai, Thailand. With the excellent scientific line up in ACBI, last two days were full of fruitful discussion & collaboration meetings.

A reminder that proteins are highly dynamic molecules. ◼️We have made much progress in measuring & predicting static protein structures, but the dynamics that animate life remain challenging to measure & model.

What fewer people knew about, however, was Roger's kindness and integrity. He never claimed more than he deserved, letting the science speak for itself, and giving credit wherever due. He'd give an honest opinion when asked, whether positive or negative, something I really valued

In collaboration with Prof. Sang-Kyu Kim, we have revealed key steps and enzymes in the biosynthesis of securinine and allosecurinine @NatureComms. nature.com/articles/s4146…. Congrats @kang_gyumin. @KAIST_Chem . @kaistpr

@Billy_WL_NG @CUHKMedicine It is great piece of work bily!!

Excited to share our 2nd-gen OGTAC🎯: we turned a potent inhibitor into a non-inhibitory covalent binder, enabling targeted protein O-GlcNAcylation — without shutting down OGT🍬Congrats to the OGTAC team @CUHKMedicine, esp. PhD student Zhihao! also thanks to collaborators at Kyoto Univ. & HKU! Link: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Prof. Barry Sharpless—one of only two scientists in history to receive the Nobel Prize in Chemistry twice—gave an unforgettable and inspiring lecture at SNU today. His passion for discovery and vision for the future of chemistry moved everyone in the audience. Truly remarkable.

How can learning precede design in synthetic biology? and what are we doing to generate sufficiently high scales of meaningful data for engineering biological systems? Check out this new commentary with Andy Ellington's lab. nature.com/articles/s4146…

@chemsnu Must have to check out this beautiful catalyst for click reaction!!

Prof. Woon Ju Song designed a protein that acts as a CuAAC ligand! R79TP mimics triazole-rich Cu sites and shows faster click catalysis than benchmark ligands. doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5…

@koolchemistry @Samsung It was an honor meeting you and spending such a wonderful time together in San Diego. Your talk went in a completely unexpected storyline. I truely learnd a lot from a simple reactivity aspect to a much broader and more complex scope. Really cool and inspiring science!

Also had the privilege of speaking at the Samsung Global Research Symposium on Chemical Biology a few days ago in San Diego - it was packed with exciting new research. A belated thanks to @Samsung

Following that, as always, Prof. Chang delivered a fascinating and insightful talk, beautifully connecting the many facets of his scientific endeavors. #KCS #chemicalbiology

Before the award lecture, Prof. Sung-Kee Chung shared his inspiring scientific journey and reflected on the flourishing era of biochemistry and LifeChem over the past two decades.

Honoring Excellence in Chemical Biology It was a truly special moment to witness my Ph.D. supervisor, Prof. Young-Tae Chang, receiving the inaugural Sung-Kee Chung Award from the KCS LifeChem Division.
