...ations for medical care," Roth said. "In the end I suspect there will be clinical benefits and it will change the way medicine is practiced, because we will, in short, be able to buy patients time." In the Science paper, Roth and colleagues report inducing a state of clinical torpor in mice for up to six ho...

50-year-old Mystery Solved: Protein Tags Regulate Key Ion Channel

...to be involved. Goldstein and colleagues began to suspect sumoylation [SUE-mow-e-LAY-shun]. In this process, an enzyme attaches a small peptide called SUMO (for small ubiquitin-like modifier protein) onto another protein. The presence of SUMO alters how the second protein functions. Goldstein's team first ...

New SARS Protein Linked To Important Cell Doorway

...es typically aren't harmful to humans, researchers suspect a gene in the SARS accessory genome may be providing the virus with most of its pathogenic punch. Their computerized search highlighted a section of the SARS genetic code that shared several features with immune evasion proteins previously identifie...

Researchers discover molecule that causes secondary stroke

...ier studies in rats, the team measured each of the suspect agents in 12 hemorrhagic stroke patients. Within 10 days, four of the group suffered a secondary cerebral vasospasm. The same patients were also found to have elevated levels of bilirubin and significantly higher levels of BOXes. One of the 12 who h...

New binding target for oncogenic viral protein

...t destroyed by the cell. Drs. Clurman and Welcker suspect that by acting as a decoy and binding to Fbw7, T antigen protects cellular Fbw7 targets that facilitate viral replication and tumorigenesis. "I think this work underlines the importance of Fbw7 as an emerging tumor suppressor and the consequences of...
