1997 GORDON CONFERENCE ON PROTEINS

戈登蛋白质研究会议是一年两次的 会议。这次会议的目的是将一小群 在研究结构基本原理方面处于领先地位的人 蛋白质中的功能关系，目的是允许有效的 讨论该领域前沿的关键问题，以便 进展可以加快。因为蛋白质的重要性 折叠，在疾病中稳定和功能，进步被刺激 会议的召开将直接惠及生物医学研究。 由于“蛋白质”是一个相当广泛的话题，在1997年的会议上，我们 我选择了七个焦点主题，每个主题都与 蛋白质的结构-功能关系一般如下： 1.二肽构象能学(理论与实验) 2.折叠过程(理论和实验) 3.蛋白质进化(观察和原理) 4.蛋白质开关(信号转导的例子和原理) 5.超高温蛋白质(理论与实验) 6.孔、通道和受体(观察和原理) 7.蛋白质工程(原理和可能性) 我们要求美国国立卫生研究院提供6,000美元的部分资金，用于 预计44,500美元，我们将需要支持扬声器和提供一些 1997年戈登蛋白质研究会议的奖学金将 从周日开始在新罕布夏州霍尔德内斯的霍尔德内斯学校举行， 1997年6月15日至6月20日(星期五)

The Gordon Research Conferences on Proteins is an ongoing biannual conference. This conference aims to bring together a small group of persons who are leaders in research into the fundamentals of structure function relations in proteins, with the purpose of allowing effective discussion of key issues at the frontier of the field, so that progress can be accelerated. Because of the importance of protein folding, stability and function in disease, the progress stimulated by the conference should directly benefit biomedical research. Since "Proteins" is a rather broad topic, for the 1997 meeting, we have selected seven topics of focus, each f which bears heavily on the structure-function relations of proteins in general: 1. Dipeptide Conformational Energetics (theory and experiment) 2. Folding processes (theory and experiment) 3. Protein Evolution (observations and principles) 4. Protein Switches (examples and principles of signal transduction) 5. Hyperthermophilic Proteins (theory and experiment) 6. Pores, Channels, and Receptors (observations and principles) 7. Protein Engineering (principles and possibilities) We are requesting $6,000 from NIH of partial funding towards the estimated $44,500 we will need support speakers and provide some scholarships for the 1997 Gordon Research Conference on Proteins will be held at Holderness School in Holderness, New Hampshire from Sunday, June 15 to Friday, June 20, 1997.
