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

Researchers at the University of Chicago have found that a recently discovered biological process known as sumoylation -- until now thought to be active only in the nucleus -- also occurs near the cell's surface where it regulates at least one and possibly many kinds of proteins, providing a novel target for the development of new drugs. The discovery, published in the 8 April 2005 issue o...
