DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for a FASEB conference on The Mechanism and Regulation of Prokaryotic Transcription to be held from June 18-25, 2005 at Saxtons River, VT. This meeting is always oversubscribed. This extraordinarily successful meeting is the only one that broadly considers prokaryotic transcription. Its unique interdisciplinary character brings together cutting edge research from related but often non-intersecting field's thereby promoting cross-fertilization of ideas. It is here that new structures are unveiled, single molecule studies are showcased and models of transcriptional circuits are presented. In the current meeting, we continue the emphasis on single molecule studies and increase the discussion of emerging systems biology approaches to transcriptional control. The proposed sessions for the meeting are: Structure and Function of RNA polymerase, ll-lll. Transcription Initiation; IV-V. Transcription elongation/termination; VI. Repressers/Activators; VII. Global Regulatory networks; VIM. Regulation in stress and development; IX. Regulatory strategies. Each session has both invited speakers and those chosen from the abstracts. Our invited speakers include women, minorities and new faculty. Participants are primarily from major research institutions, with representation from small colleges and industry and include faculty, post-doctoral fellows and graduate students. Studies at the national level have identified the need to integrate nanotechnology and systems biological approaches with other methodology for examining biological problems. This meeting does just that. People using every possible approach to a tractable and important biological problem-the mechanism and regulation of prokaryotic transcription - will be interacting intensively for an extended period of time. The outcome will not only be an increasing synthesis of all of these approaches. It is also the only meeting where physicists or modelers wishing to enter this field can gain both collaborators and a historical perspective. This activity will have a national impact far beyond the scope of this meeting

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案请求部分支持将于 2005 年 6 月 18 日至 25 日在佛蒙特州 Saxtons River 举行的关于原核转录机制和调控的 FASEB 会议。 这次会议总是超额认购。这次会议非常成功，是唯一一次广泛考虑原核转录的会议。它独特的跨学科特征汇集了相关但通常不交叉领域的前沿研究，从而促进了思想的交叉融合。正是在这里，新的结构被揭示，单分子研究被展示，转录回路的模型被呈现。在本次会议中，我们继续强调单分子研究，并增加对转录控制的新兴系统生物学方法的讨论。建议的会议分会是：RNA 聚合酶的结构和功能，II-III。转录起始； IV-V。转录延伸/终止；六．抑制剂/激活剂；七．全球监管网络；维姆。压力和发展的调节；九．监管策略。每场会议都有受邀演讲者和从摘要中选出的演讲者。我们邀请的演讲者包括女性、少数族裔和新教师。参与者主要来自主要研究机构，也有来自小型学院和工业界的代表，包括教师、博士后研究员和研究生。 国家一级的研究已经确定需要将纳米技术和系统生物学方法与其他方法结合起来以检查生物学问题。这次会议就是这样做的。人们使用一切可能的方法来解决一个易于处理且重要的生物学问题——原核转录的机制和调控——将在很长一段时间内进行密集的相互作用。结果不仅是所有这些方法的不断综合。这也是希望进入该领域的物理学家或建模师能够同时获得合作者和历史视角的唯一会议。这项活动所产生的全国性影响远远超出了本次会议的范围
