The SUMO family proteins modify other proteins and the SUMOylation of proteins are critical for many cellular processes. Identifying SUMO鈥檚 role in the cancer cell growth will lead to a new strategy for glioblastoma treatment. </span></span></p> Fri, 04 Jul 2014 14:04:43 +0000 anita.kar@mcgill.ca 1057 at /channels-contribute /channels-contribute/channels/news/stopping-tumours-their-path-232355 <p><b>New study sheds light on most common and deadly form of brain cancer</b></p> Wed, 08 Jan 2014 16:16:23 +0000 anita.kar@mcgill.ca 899 at /channels-contribute /channels-contribute/channels/news/neuro-portrait-inspiring-art-and-science-229978 <p><b><i>Photo exhibit dives into the heart of creativity and the human brain </i></b></p> <p><b>聽</b></p> <p><b>WATCH the video clip </b>(30sec)<b>: </b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LuKKTdgFzw"><b>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LuKKTdgFzw</b></a><b> 聽</b></p> <p><i>(English transcript below)</i></p> <p><b></b>聽</p> Wed, 21 Aug 2013 15:25:58 +0000 anita.kar@mcgill.ca 766 at /channels-contribute
