GORDON RESEARCH CONFERENCE ON BACTERIAL CELL SURFACES

拟议中的戈登会议是处理 细菌细胞表面结构，例如细胞质膜， 肽多糖壁、外膜、鞭毛、胶囊、菌毛等 研究领域以多学科方法为基础。因此，我们需要 工人与形态、生理、 免疫学、生化、物理化学和遗传方面的专业知识； 戈登会议是将这些科学家聚集在一起的理想环境 不同的学科。 细胞表面成分的结构和功能是最基本的 在微生物学和一般细胞生物学中的重要性。最新研究 表明化学上可识别细胞表面成分起作用 在宿主动植物感染过程中的重要作用 共生细菌和致病细菌。本次会议所涵盖的主题 与微生物学的这些领域非常相关。 应该强调的是，大部分或主要的贡献 这一领域的研究是由外国科学家(欧洲AS 以及日语)。因此，这是成功的关键 大会邀请的外国与会者比例较高。 因此，正在提出一项补充旅费和生活费的请求。 为那些无法获得必要资金的参与者提供资金 从其他来源。

The proposed Gordon Conference is the seventh in a series dealing with the bacterial cell surface structures, e.g., cytoplasmic membranes, peptidoglycan walls, outer membranes, flagella, capsules, pili, etc. This area of research is based on multidisciplinary approaches. Thus, we need the interaction of workers with morphological, physiological, immunological, biochemical, physicochemical, and genetic expertise; and the Gordon Conference is an ideal setting to bring together scientists of these diverse disciplines. The structure and functions of cell surface components are of fundamental importance in microbiology and cell biology in general. Recent studies indicate that chemically identifiable cell surface components play essential roles in the process of infection of host animals and plants by symbiotic and pathogenic bacteria. The topics covered by this conference are very much relevant to these areas of microbiology. It should be emphasized that a large fraction or major contributions to this field of research have been made by foreign scientists (European as well as Japanese). Therefore, it is crucial for the success of the conference to have a high proportion of invited foreign participants. Thus, a request is being made to supplement the travel and subsistence funds for those participants who will not be able to obtain necessary funds from other sources.
