SUBA paper recognised by ISI as triggering a fast-moving research front

The SUBA database, established and maintained by the Centre tracks new data on the subcellular location of proteins in the model plant Arabidopsis. This is rapidly becoming the central reference point for researchers on the issue of where a protein resides in plant cells. Just this month Thomson ISI recognised the high citation rate of the original SUBA paper by selecting it in ISI's Fast Moving Fronts for November. An interview with the first author, former PEB researcher Dr Joshua Heazlewood, is now on the ISI website, or you could download the PDF.
