Proposal Objectives: The primary objective of this U.S.-Hungary workshop organized by Dr. Bob B. Buchanan of the University of California at Berkeley and by Dr. Arpad Balogh of Bessenyei College, Hungary, is to meet and discuss fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate. This recently discovered metabolite is rapidly assuming increased importance in plant research because it affects the sucrose and starch content in higher plants. Advances in the field have not led to a unified explanation. This workshop will bring together key experts with various views to explore competing theories. Relevance of Proposal to Program Objectives: This activity fulfills the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge in metabolic biology by enabling leading experts of the U.S. and Eastern Europe to combine complementary talents, pool resources, and share research experience in an area of strong mutual interest and competence. Merit: The proposal ranks in the Excellent category. Its technical merit therefore warrants NSF support. The U.S. and Hungarian organizers' and participants' professional credentials are very well regarded and the rationale for international cooperation is clearly articulated. The workshop should yield new plans for long-term, mutually beneficial cooperative research projects. Interrelated Projects: The NSF program in Metabolic Biology supports Dr. Buchanan's ongoing research in regulatory mechanisms in carbohydrate synthesis and breakdown (DMB-8314892). Funding: The requested budget covers modest travel expenses of the U.S. participants, in accordance with program guidelines. All other costs in Hungary will be covered by the Hungarian Ministry of Education.

提案目标：这个由加州大学伯克利分校的Bob B.Buchanan博士和匈牙利Bessenyei学院的Arpad Balogh博士组织的美国-匈牙利研讨会的主要目标是会面并讨论果糖-2，6-二磷酸。这种新近发现的代谢物在植物研究中迅速变得越来越重要，因为它影响高等植物中的蔗糖和淀粉含量。该领域的进展并没有导致一个统一的解释。这次研讨会将汇集具有不同观点的关键专家，探讨相互竞争的理论。建议与计划目标的相关性：这项活动通过使美国和东欧的顶尖专家能够结合互补的人才，汇集资源，并在共同感兴趣和能力很强的领域分享研究经验，实现了促进代谢生物学科学知识的计划目标。优点：该提案属于优秀类别。因此，它的技术优势值得NSF的支持。美国和匈牙利的组织者和参与者的专业资历得到了很好的尊重，国际合作的理由也得到了明确的阐述。研讨会应该为长期、互惠互利的合作研究项目制定新的计划。相关项目：美国国家科学基金会新陈代谢生物学项目支持布坎南博士正在进行的碳水化合物合成和分解调控机制研究(DMB-8314892)。资金：根据项目指导方针，申请的预算包括美国参与者的适度旅行费用。在匈牙利的所有其他费用将由匈牙利教育部承担。
