METALS IN BI0LOGY GORDON CONFERENCE

说明：请拨资金用于支持与会者前往 生物学戈登会议（MIB-GRC）将于1月18日至22日举行， 1998年，在加利福尼亚州文图拉的喜来登福朋酒店。 这 多学科会议通常被认为是首映式 涵盖金属生物化学和生物无机领域的小型会议 化学. 自1962年以来，这些会议一直是一个定期论坛， 介绍和讨论前沿研究的各个方面， 金属离子在生物化学，分子生物学，细胞生物学， 和医药 这次会议的受欢迎程度导致了两年一度的变化， 从1987年1月开始的年度日历。 会议仍然 尽管频率更高，但仍然超额订阅。 需要强调的主题 1998年包括：（1）氮和硫生物无机化学;（2） 铁硫团簇的结构、物理性质、氧化还原及其它 （3）锌蛋白酶的结构、作用机制及药理作用 意义;（4）细胞中的金属调节和金属加工;（5） 诊断和治疗剂;（6）氮氧化物生物学和化学; (7)氧气处理与化学;（8）生物无机化学与疾病 States. 将提供充足的时间进行讨论，并将尽一切努力 让年轻的研究人员加入这个项目 额外资金 要求作为一个相关会议的贡献和支持，研究生 生物无机化学研究研讨会（GRS），定于1月22日至25日， 1998. 本次会议是专门为研究生和博士后在 该领域，谁将走到一起，提出讲座和科学海报 在为期三天的会议上发言。 有一个重要的会议 定于一九九八年一月二十二日（星期四）晚上举行， MIB-GRC，包括混合晚餐，MIB-GRC的主题演讲者，以及 海报会议与GRS与会者的演讲。 计划的专题 1998年的GRS包括Fe-S蛋白、铜蛋白、非血红素铁 蛋白质和金属-核酸相互作用。

DESCRIPTION: Funds are requested to support the travel of participants to the Metals in Biology Gordon Conference (MIB-GRC) to be held January 18-22, 1998, at the Sheraton Four Points Harbortown Hotel, Ventura, CA. This multidisciplinary conference is generally considered to be the premiere small meeting covering the fields of metallobiochemistry and bioinorganic chemistry. Since 1962, these meetings have been a regular forum for the presentation and discussion of forefront research covering all aspects of the roles in metal ions in biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, and medicine. The popularity of this meeting led to a change from biennial to an annual calendar starting in January 1987. The meeting remains over-subscribed, despite the greater frequency. The topics to be emphasized for 1998 include: (1) Nitrogen and Sulfur Bioinorganic Chemistry; (2) Iron-Sulfur Clusters: Structures, Physical Properties, Redox and Other Roles; (3) Zinc Protease Structure, Mechanism and Pharmacological Implications; (4) Metal Regulation in Cells and Metal Processing; (5) Diagnostic and Therapeutic Agents; (6) Nitrogen Oxide Biology and Chemistry; (7) Dioxygen Processing and Chemistry; (8) Bioinorganic Chemistry & Disease States. Ample time will be provided for discussion and every effort will be made to include young investigators in the program. Additional funds are requested as contribution and support of an associated meeting, the Graduate Research Seminar in bioinorganic chemistry (GRS), set fo January 22-25, 1998. This conference is devoted to graduate students and postdoctorals in the field, who will come together to present lectures and scientific poster presentations in a three day meeting. There is an important session scheduled for Thursday evening, January 22, 1998, to overlap with the MIB-GRC, including mixing dinner, a keynote lecturer from the MIB-GRC, and a Poster Session with presentations from the GRS attendees. Topics planned for the 1998 GRS include Fe-S proteins, copper proteins, non-heme Fe proteins and metal-nucleic acid interactions.
