INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM--MOLECULAR MECHANISM OF MEMBRANE

请求提供支助，以部分资助一次国际研讨会，该研讨会 将被命名为“膜融合的分子机制”。膜 融合在许多细胞过程中都很重要，比如内吞作用， 生物细胞的胞吐作用、膜生物发生与受精 系统。研讨会计划于1986年10月13日至15日在该中心举行 明天，SUNYAB Amherst校区。共有约30位演讲者和 讨论者，每个人都是他或她所在领域的领先专家 出席。演讲者将被要求提供及时的概述，新的 在他们的专业领域中，对指定主题的数据和个人意见。 研讨会式的讨论将穿插在演示文稿中。演讲者 将被要求提交一份书面手稿。这些手稿和 讨论将成为出版《#年会议记录》的基础。 研讨会。 这将是第一次专门讨论分子 膜融合的机制。虽然许多关于物理化学的报道 膜融合的过程已经出现在文献中，并且有很多 信息已经积累，还没有举行全面的会议 在现场工作的工人。一次致力于思想交流的会议， 膜融合现象的研究结果和解释 需要生物系统来建立基线协议并澄清 该领域的问题。这次会议将是及时的，并将促进 形成对理解分子机制有意义的概念 膜融合。

Support is requested to partially fund an International Symposium, which will be titled, "The Molecular Mechanisms of Membrane Fusion". Membrane fusion is of importance in many cellular processes, such as endocytosis, exocytosis, membrane biogenesis and fertilization in biological cell systems. The Symposium is planned for October 13-15, 1986, at the Center for Tomorrow, SUNYAB Amherst Campus. A total of about 30 speakers and discussants, each a leading expert in his or her field is expected to attend. The speakers will be requested to present a timely overview, new data and personal opinion on an assigned topic in their area of expertise. Workshop style discussion will intersperse with presentation. The speakers will be requested to submit a written manuscript. These manuscripts and the discussion will form the basis for publication of the Proceedings of the Symposium. This will be the first Symposium specifically addressing the molecular mechanisms of membrane fusion. While many reports on the physico-chemical process of membrane fusion have appeared in the literature, and much information has accumulated, there has been no comprehensive meeting of workers in the field. A meeting dedicated to the exchange of ideas, results and interpretations on the phenomenon of membrane fusion in biological systems is needed to establish baseline agreement and clarify issues in the field. This meeting will be timely and would foster the formation of meaningful concepts for understanding the molecular mechanisms of membrane fusion.
