Scientists have discovered that a small protein called SUMO helps to control the excitability of our brain cells. The researchers hope that their findings could lead to the development of new treatments for diseases such as epilepsy and schizophrenia.
The work, which was partly funded under the EU’s Sixth Framework Programme, is published online by the journal Nature.
