Protein Found Essential for Brain Development
Researchers have found that the 14-3-3 epsilon protein, one of a family of ubiquitous phosphoserine/threonine-binding proteins, is required for normal brain development, and when a mutation causes a deficiency of this protein, the result is the serious brain disorder known as lissencephaly.

DNA Microarrays Identify Cancer Markers
Researchers employing DNA microarrays have identified a group of 385 genes related to Sezary syndrome, a leukemic form of lymphoma, and have shown that one gene occurs in 70% of patients but not in controls, making it a highly specific marker for the disease. More...18 Jun 2003
Source of Synapse Kinase Activity Discovered
Researchers studying the development of the nervous system have found that Abl kinases provide the developing synapse with the kinase activity required for signal amplification and the intrinsic cytoskeletal regulatory capacity required for assembly and remodeling. More...16 Jun 2003
