Some exciting lights 💡 camera 🎥 and action 🎞️ happening in the Woo Lab! Hmm, what could it possibly be for? Stay tuned 😏😗All we can say is that there is exciting science to come!

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

Excited to share our pub in @acsbiol, a collaboration with our colleagues across the pond at @dundeeuni 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ! We show how protein complexes affect the TPD when degrading targets like CK1α. Congrats Nicole and our collaborators in the Sapkota lab! 🌟🍇💙https://t.co/3fX8R5rCY0

@Zebra_Cullin @AmericanCancer @LanderLab @WardLab1 @sijwali_puran @Sankar_Lab @scrippsresearch WOOHOO!!! Congrats Zeba!!!! 💜💅🏼✨

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

A little throwback for you on this beautiful Thursday—Alison's article on her proximity-induced O-GlcNAcylation paper from last December is out now in
@NatRevMCB! 🍭🟦🌟💙#glycotime

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

Let us take you to the land of sweets with our latest work in @CellChemBiol! Excited to share this proximity-induced target O-GlcNAc approach, where we uncover transcriptional effects of O-GlcNAc. Congrats to Alison and Dan! 🟦🍭🍬🎵❄️

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

Roses are red, GlcNAc is blue, sugar is sweet, and we want YOU to read our latest in @NatureComms — where we identify small-molecules that disrupt OGlcNAc homeostasis via RNA splicing. Congrats Steven (@scheng23) and all the authors! 🟦🍭❤️ https://t.co/Vduv9Il3Kc

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

Another Woo Lab Dr. is in: Congrats to our newest Ph.D, Dr. Alison Mody!🫡 Cheers to a wonderful Ph.D. and a sweet (pun intended) thesis talk, all the world’s alpacas are celebrating with you in spirit 🦙🩵🟦💐🎉

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

@sp3intermediate Thank you!! #thefutureisallostery 💫🫶

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

we hope you enjoyed this paper as much as we do! 😉😘 if you’re interested in working with an allosteric ligand, reach out to Prof. Woo 🫡 we’re more than happy to share 🙌🏼🩵✨ #thefutureisallostery #CRBN #TPD

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

Pour a glass of champagne AND red Bordeaux—Our newest work with @GSK and @scrippsresearch is out in @Nature, where we describe SB-405483, the first allosteric CRBN ligand which potentiates neosubstrate degradation. Congrats Vanessa and all authors! 🍷💫💐

@Zebra_Cullin @LanderLab @Nature Couldn’t have done it without you, Zeba! 🫶🏼 Cheers, Cryo-EM Queen!! 👑🩵✨

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

@Zhenguang4 🫶🏼🫶🏼 miss you already, Prof. Zhao 😉 Looking forward to the science your lab will produce 🫡

[Woo Lab @thewoolab]

While allostery is biochemical cooperation, this was an epitome of scientific collaboration💙. We'd like to thank our collaborators at GSK and the Lander Lab at Scripps, without whom this work would not have been possible 💙💐🤝

He’s gonna be gonna be golden! ⭐️ While we’re sad that our beloved postdoc, Dr. Zhenguang Zhao, is leaving, we’re excited for his next steps as he becomes Prof. Zhao at China Pharmaceutical University! 🤩✨🌟
