Sixth Biophysical Discussions: Biophysics and Recombinant DNA to be held at the Airlie House - Airlie, Virginia January 19-22, 1992.

第六次生物物理讨论：“生物物理学与重组 DNA”将促进对分子遗传学的研究 操作，因为它们揭示了物理和结构特性 蛋白质。 将面临基本困难，例如 新创造的物种的结构， 诱变，以测试特定的假设，并建立模型， 计算或计算机图形相比，需要 更精确的三维分子结构。 提出 本讨论的主题包括缝隙连接、乙酰胆碱 受体;离子偶联转运蛋白;细菌趋化性 受体;视紫红质和细菌视紫红质，钠，钾， 和钙通道;细菌鞭毛“马达”;受体 和其他跨膜或脂质连接蛋白质;蛋白质 设计和工程;蛋白质折叠;和蛋白质/多肽 插入。 讨论会的组织者希望， 在这些领域工作的科学家将提出重要的 新问题，澄清问题和问题，解决一些 研究争议。

The Sixth Biophysical Discussion: "Biophysics and Recombinant DNA" will foster an examination of molecular genetic manipulations as they reveal physical and structural properties of proteins. Basic difficulties will be confronted, such as the structures of newly created species, the innovative use of mutagenesis to test specific hypotheses, and modeling built on computation or computer graphics as compared with the need for more accurate three-dimensional molecular structures. Proposed topics for this Discussion include gap junctions; acetylcholine receptors; ion-coupled transporters; bacterial chemotaxic receptors; rhodopsin and bacteriorhodopsin, sodium, potassium, and calcium channels; the bacterial flagellar "motor"; receptors and other membrane-spanning or lipid-linked proteins; protein design and engineering; protein folding; and protein/polypeptide insertion. The Organizers of the Discussion hope that bringing together scientists working in these topical areas will raise important new questions, clarify issues and problems and resolve some research controversies.
