"Frontiers of Plant Cell Biology: Signals and Pathways," the 22nd Symposium in Plant Biology at the University of California, Riverside (UCR), will be held January 15-19, 2003. The organizers are Natasha V. Raikhel and Zhenbiao Yang, Center for Plant Cell Biology in the Genomics Institute and the Department of Botany and Plant Sciences at UCR. Sequencing of the Arabidopsis and rice genomes has created new research directions, experimental approaches, and opportunities. Researchers are on the brink of elucidating the function of all the genes of Arabidopsis and other selected plant species. These exciting advances in plant biology are starting to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying the functional properties of plant cells. Integrated genetic, genomic and biochemical approaches have led to the identification of signal transduction pathways, signal receptors, and biosynthetic pathways for inter- and intra-cellular communication; patch clamp studies have uncovered novel channels involved in cellular signaling; the structure and function of complex cell walls are being elucidated at an unprecedented pace; and more is being revealed about the machinery involved in targeting proteins to specific cellular locations. The aim of this symposium is to bring together students and scientists studying the plant cell from different perspectives genomic, bioinformatic, genetic, molecular, biochemical, and cell biological to highlight these recent advances and evaluate emerging approaches for the dissection of plant cell function at the molecular level. This is a rapidly developing area of plant science with abundant opportunity for young researchers to learn and contribute. The timing is ideal for a symposium that examines the functioning of the whole plant cell. This symposium will be distinct from others in the plant field because its small size is conducive to interaction among participants; such exchanges will likely lead to national and international collaborations. There will be approximately 200 attendees.

“植物细胞生物学前沿：信号与通路”是加州大学河滨分校 (UCR) 第 22 届植物生物学研讨会，将于 2003 年 1 月 15 日至 19 日举行。组织者是加州大学河滨分校基因组研究所植物细胞生物学中心和植物学与植物科学系的 Natasha V. Raikhel 和杨振彪。拟南芥和水稻基因组测序创造了新的研究方向、实验方法和机会。研究人员即将阐明拟南芥和其他选定植物物种的所有基因的功能。植物生物学的这些令人兴奋的进展开始揭示植物细胞功能特性背后的分子机制。综合遗传、基因组和生化方法已经确定了细胞间和细胞内通讯的信号转导途径、信号受体和生物合成途径；膜片钳研究发现了参与细胞信号传导的新通道；复杂细胞壁的结构和功能正在以前所未有的速度得到阐明；更多关于将蛋白质靶向特定细胞位置的机制正在被揭示。本次研讨会的目的是聚集从基因组、生物信息学、遗传、分子、生物化学和细胞生物学等不同角度研究植物细胞的学生和科学家，以突出这些最新进展，并评估在分子水平上解析植物细胞功能的新兴方法。这是植物科学快速发展的领域，为年轻研究人员提供了大量学习和贡献的机会。对于检查整个植物细胞功能的研讨会来说，这个时机是理想的。本次研讨会与植物领域的其他研讨会不同，因为它的规模较小，有利于与会者之间的互动；这种交流可能会导致国家和国际合作。大约有 200 名与会者。
