DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed conference, Regulation and Function of Small GTPases, will be the eighth in a series of FASEB summer research conferences devoted to the study of GTP-binding proteins that regulate normal cellular processes as diverse as proliferation, polarity, migration and gene expression, and that contribute to disease processes such as cancer. The conference will be held July 15-20, 2006, at the Vermont Academy in Saxtons River, Vermont. These conferences have provided a unique forum for addressing important questions of cell biology that are regulated by members of the Ras superfamily. Originally divided into sessions according to GTPase subfamily, these conferences are now arranged around biological themes to enhance the principal objective, which is to stimulate cross-pollination of ideas among a diverse group of cell and structural biologists and biochemists by bringing them together in an intimate setting to share the latest developments in their fields. There are 34 invited speakers from the United States, Europe and Japan, with additional short presentations to be selected from submitted abstracts. Special attention has been paid to inclusion of women, and of young and minority investigators. The 8 oral sessions and 4 poster sessions will be enhanced by informal interactions at the conference site to develop new ideas and collaborative relationships.

描述(由申请人提供)：拟议的会议，小GTP酶的调节和功能，将是FASE B夏季系列研究会议中的第八个，该系列研究会议致力于研究GTP结合蛋白，这些蛋白调节着各种正常的细胞过程，如增殖、极性、迁移和基因表达，并有助于癌症等疾病过程。会议将于2006年7月15日至20日在佛蒙特州萨克斯顿河的佛蒙特州学院举行。这些会议为解决由RAS超家族成员调控的重要细胞生物学问题提供了一个独特的论坛。这些会议最初根据GTPase亚家族分为会议，现在围绕生物学主题安排，以加强主要目标，即通过在亲密的环境中将细胞和结构生物学家和生物化学家聚集在一起，分享各自领域的最新发展，促进不同群体之间的思想交叉授粉。来自美国、欧洲和日本的34名受邀演讲者，将从提交的摘要中挑选其他简短的发言。特别注意吸纳妇女以及年轻和少数族裔调查人员。8个口头会议和4个海报会议将通过会议现场的非正式互动来加强，以发展新的想法和合作关系。
