Enzymes, Coenzymes and Metabolic Pathways

描述(由申请者提供)：2004年和2005年关于酶、辅酶和新陈代谢途径的戈登研究会议需要支持。会议将于2004年7月18日至23日和2005年7月17日至22日在新罕布夏州梅里登的金博尔联合学院举行。会议的主题包括酶作用的基本机制，酶在疾病和细菌发病中的作用，代谢工程和代谢途径之间的相互作用，辅因子化学，以及新的酶反应机制。2004年会议的发言者遴选工作已接近完成；现已说明暂定方案。演讲者来自学术界和工业界，既有成熟的调查人员，也有年轻的调查人员。妇女在发言者中占很大比例；联合主席将努力在挑选会议与会者时实现类似的多样性。鉴于这次年度会议的成功历史由来已久，要求为2004年和2005年的会议提供部分支助。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Support is requested for the 2004 and 2005 Gordon Research Conferences on Enzymes, Coenzymes, and Metabolic Pathways. The meetings will be held at Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, New Hampshire, July 18-23, 2004 and July 17-22, 2005. Topics for the meeting include fundamental mechanisms of enzyme action, the roles of enzymes in disease and bacterial pathogenesis, metabolic engineering and interactions between metabolic pathways, cofactor chemistry, and novel enzyme reaction mechanisms. Speaker selection for the 2004 meeting is nearly complete; the tentative program is described. The speakers are drawn from academia and industry and represent a mix of established and younger investigators. Women comprise a significant fraction of the speakers; the Co-Chairs will strive to attain similar diversity in selecting attendees for the meetings. In view of the long, successful history of this annual meeting, partial support is requested for both the 2004 and 2005 Conferences.
