This grant is for support of participants at a winter Gordon Conference on Sensory Transduction in Microorganisms. The conference, which is anticipated to have 110-135 attendees, will permit scientists from the United States and abroad to discuss recent developments and ideas regarding molecular mechanisms of sensory transduction in simple unicellular systems including bacteria, yeast, flagellates, and Dictyostelium. Sessions will emphasize the emerging generalizations regarding chemosensory and photosensory receptors, intramolecular transduction, intracellular signal processing, and the response processes, ranging from flagellar or pseudopod modulation in tactic cells to gene expression in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Homologies between microbial and higher animal signal transduction components will be emphasized. Sensory signal transduction is the key to the ability of an organism to perceive and respond appropriately to its environment. The mechanisms by which microbes perceive and respond to environmental stimuli are fascinating in their own right, and crucial to the survival of microbial species. In addition, they provide important clues to mechanims whereby higher organisms, both plant and animal, likewise perceive and respond appropriately to environmental stimuli.

这笔赠款是支持参与者在冬季戈登 微生物感觉传导会议。 的 会议预计将有110-135名与会者， 允许来自美国和国外的科学家讨论 最近的发展和思想的分子机制， 简单单细胞系统中的感觉传导，包括 细菌、酵母、鞭毛虫和网囊藻。 会议将 强调关于化学感觉的新兴概括， 感光受体，分子内转导，细胞内 信号处理和响应过程，范围从 鞭毛或伪足调节基因 在原核和真核生物中表达。 微生物与高等动物信号转导的同源性 将强调各组成部分。 感觉信号转导是神经系统的关键 有机体对环境的感知和反应。 微生物感知和反应的机制 环境刺激本身就很吸引人， 对微生物物种的生存至关重要。 此外他们 提供了重要的线索，使高等生物， 植物和动物，同样感知和适当地回应 环境刺激
