Conference on Plant Cell Biology being held on January 13-19, 1998; in Taos, New Mexico

MCB-9724910绿色 通俗摘要 在过去的几年里，我们对植物细胞生物学的了解有了巨大的增长，特别是在蛋白质运输，细胞信号传导和细胞分裂方面。 在蛋白质运输中，已经鉴定并克隆了将蛋白质靶向细胞中特定位点的分子机制的几种组分。 对植物信号的研究揭示了对植物细胞来说是新的或对植物和动物都具有广泛意义的步骤、信号和中间体。 也许最令人兴奋的进展来自植物细胞发育的研究，因为这些研究将几个以前独立的研究方向结合在一起。 这个主题为植物细胞生物学的研讨会将重点介绍植物细胞中信号传导和运输途径的最新进展。 重点是将这些研究与细胞分裂，细胞死亡，形态建成和植物发育的其他方面的研究相结合，以阐明它们之间的复杂关系。

MCB-9724910 Green Lay Abstract Our knowledge of plant cell Biology has grown tremendously over the past several years, particularly in the areas of protein trafficking, cell signalling, and cell division. In protein trafficking, several components of the molecular machinery that targets proteins to specific sites in the cell have been identified and cloned. The study of plant signalling has revealed steps, signals and intermediates that are novel to plant cells or of broad significance to both plants and animals. Perhaps the most exciting advances are from studies of plant cell development because these studies have brought together several previously independent directions of research. This Keystone Symposium entitled Plant Cell Biology will highlight the most recent progress on signalling and trafficking pathways in plant cells. Emphasis will be placed on integrating these studies with those on cell division, cell death, morphogenesis and other aspects of plant development to elucidate the intricate relationships among them.
