SYMPOSIUM AND STATE OF THE ART LECTURES

请拨资金帮助支持题为“机制”的专题讨论会 《细胞信号转导》和三场最先进的讲座 生殖研究学会第23届年会。这个 会议将于1990年7月16日至18日在田纳西大学举行， 田纳西州诺克斯维尔 所有的演讲都是为了强调细胞和 分子方法适用于许多领域的问题。 生殖生物学。研讨会将重点介绍以下几个方面 信号转导，将有三名研究人员在全国 并在这一领域得到国际认可。Lutz Birnbaumer博士将 介绍他在G蛋白的多重作用方面的开创性工作 跨膜信号转导。Marc Caron博士将讨论 儿茶酚胺受体的结构、功能和调节。 David Garbers将阐述信号的分子基础 精子。 最先进的讲座旨在代表当前和 生殖生物学中令人兴奋的探索和感兴趣的领域 面向广泛的与会者。约翰·尼尔森博士将讨论分子 激素调节和组织特异性表达的机制 促性腺激素基因。伊丽莎白·罗伯逊博士将解释 胚胎干细胞(ES细胞)将突变引入小鼠的生殖细胞 Line和Patricia Sling博士将介绍关于卵子如何 在配子相互作用过程中调节精子功能。我们预计这一切 的演讲将会给 我们协会的会员资格。 研讨会的会议记录和最先进的讲座将 发表在《生殖生物学》上。

Funds are requested to help support a Symposium entitled "Mechanisms of Cellular Signal Transduction" and three State-of-the-Art Lectures at the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Society for the Study of Reproduction. The meeting will be held July 16-18, 1990, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN. All of the presentations were chosen to emphasize how cellular and molecular approaches are applicable to a wide range of problems in Reproduction Biology. The Symposium will emphasize selected aspects of signal transduction and will feature three researchers who are nationally and internationally recognized in this area. Dr. Lutz Birnbaumer will present the work he has pioneered on the multiple roles of G protein in transmembrane signal transduction. Dr. Marc Caron will discuss the structure, function, and regulation of catecholamine receptors, and Dr. David Garbers will address the molecular basis of signaling in the spermatozoon. The State-of-the-Art Lectures are designed to represent current and exciting areas of exploration in Reproduction Biology and to be of interest to a broad range of attendee. Dr. John Nilson will discuss molecular mechanisms underlying hormonal regulation and tissue-specific expression of the gonadotropin genes. Dr. Elizabeth Robertson will explain the use of embryonic stem cells (ES cells) to introduce mutations into the mouse germ line, and Dr. Patricia Saling will introduce new findings of how the egg regulates sperm function during gamete interaction. We anticipate that all of the presentations will provide an important educational benefit to the membership of our Society. Proceedings of the Symposium and State-of-the-Art Lectures will be published in The Biology of Reproduction.
