The symposium, to be presented at the annual conference of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology, January 4-8, 2000, will address the mechanisms by which living things cope with osmotic stress. Aquatic and terrestrial organisms encounter changes in the salt composition of external and internal fluids that may alter the function of enzymes and the shape of cells. These osmotic challenges are met by a repertoire of regulatory responses at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels. The twelve speakers in the symposium, drawn from Europe, Canada, and the United States, will summarize the current state of knowledge of osmoregulatory mechanisms in bacteria, yeast, plants, and animals. Techniques of molecular biology, cell imaging, and remote sensing will be described as they apply to questions to ion regulation, volume regulation, and cell surface regulation. The symposium will consider the overall question from the level of protein molecules to whole organism behavior, in a sufficient variety of organims to begin to recognize patterns. To the PIs knowledge, this symposium represents the first time that such a synthesis has been attempted.

这次研讨会将在2000年1月4日至8日举行的综合和比较生物学学会年会上发表，讨论生物科普渗透压的机制。 水生和陆生生物遇到外部和内部液体的盐成分的变化，这可能会改变酶的功能和细胞的形状。 这些渗透压的挑战，满足了在分子，细胞和有机体水平的调节反应的剧目。 来自欧洲、加拿大和美国的12位演讲者将总结细菌、酵母、植物和动物中的细菌调节机制的知识现状。 分子生物学，细胞成像和遥感技术将被描述，因为它们适用于离子调节，体积调节和细胞表面调节的问题。 研讨会将考虑从蛋白质分子水平到整个有机体行为的整体问题，在足够多的各种有机体中开始识别模式。 据PI所知，这次研讨会是第一次尝试进行这种综合。
