DESCRIPTION: (Adapted from the Investigator's Abstract) RNA synthesis, chemistry, structure and function are central to the viability of all biological systems and thus, are important to agricultural, medical, and environmental research. This research has led to biotechnological applications of RNA as both tool and target. New and exciting RNA structures have been discovered and are revealing interesting new functional modes of interactions with proteins, other RNAs, DNA, and small molecules capable of disrupting RNA function. However, no meetings in the United States have focused exclusively on the topic of RNA as tool (reagent) and target, the interactions involved, and their potential applications for diagnostics and therapeutics. This meeting will create an intimate environment for intellectual exchange and a forum to share data and techniques. The objectives of this Symposium on RNA Biology II are to: (1) promote communication in the important research area of RNA interactions; (2) provide an educational experience for postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in a setting conducive to open discussions with established investigators who have broad experience in the field of RNA interactions; (3) stimulate discussion, the sharing of researchers to a venue where three major universities, federal research institutions and laboratories, and many corporate research centers are located. This proposal funds travel stipends for major speakers and young investigators.

描述：(改编自《调查者摘要》)RNA合成， 化学、结构和功能是所有生物生存能力的核心 因此，生物系统对农业、医学和 环境研究。这项研究导致了生物技术 RNA既是工具又是靶点的应用。新的令人兴奋的RNA 结构已经被发现，并正在揭示有趣的新功能 与蛋白质、其他RNA、DNA和小分子的相互作用模式 能够破坏核糖核酸的功能。然而，在美国没有任何会议 各国专门侧重于将RNA作为工具(试剂)和 目标、涉及的交互以及它们的潜在应用 诊断学和治疗学。这次会议将创造一个亲密的 智力交流的环境和共享数据和 技巧。 这次RNA生物学研讨会的目的是：(1)促进 在RNA相互作用的重要研究领域进行交流；(2) 为博士后研究员和研究生提供教育经验 学生在一个有利于与已建立的人进行公开讨论的环境中 在RNA相互作用领域有广泛经验的研究人员； (3)激发讨论，将研究人员分享到一个场所，在那里 主要大学、联邦研究机构和实验室，以及许多 企业研究中心位于这里。这项提案为旅行津贴提供资金。 主要演讲者和年轻的调查人员。
