New Research Grant AwardCongratulations are in order for Wulf Paschen, PhD, Professor of Anesthesiology in the Division of Basic Sciences for his application entitled “Proteomics Analysis to identify SUMO-conjugated proteins in tissue extracts” that was submitted to the Duke University School of Medicine Core Facility Services Voucher Program for a services voucher totaling $10,000. A large number of applications were submitted and this voucher for services enables Dr. Paschen to identify SUMO-conjugated proteins in tissue extracts. Dr. Wei Yang in Dr. Paschen’ lab generated a new highly innovative mouse model conditionally expressing tagged SUMO paralogues with which it will be possible, for the first time, to advance SUMO proteomics from cell cultures to organs.
