CSHL Mechanisms of Eukaryotic Transcription Conference

描述(申请人提供)：真核转录机制会议将是一个公开的国际会议，致力于在快速发展的真核转录领域的最新进展。本次会议是在1989年、1991年、1993年、1995年、1997年、1999年、2001年、2003年、2005年在冷泉港举行的关于同一主题的九次非常成功的会议之后举行的，会议将按照相同的基本形式举行。会议将开幕，出席人数仅限于最多450人可使用的设施。口头报告将包括特邀报告和从提交的摘要中挑选出来的报告。这确保了外地初级和高级领导人的参与，并介绍了会议期间出现的最令人振奋的成果。除了口头陈述外，还将在三个海报会议上进行海报展示，也是从提交的摘要中挑选。 关于真核转录机制的会议涵盖的领域包括：1)启动/延长，2)调控复合体，3)激活剂/基因组学，4)信号传递，5)非常规调控，6)染色质重塑，7)组蛋白修饰，8)疾病和发育。许多真核系统，包括哺乳动物系统，果蝇，线虫和酵母，将被介绍。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Mechanisms of Eukaryotic Transcription conference will be an open international meeting devoted to the most recent advances in the rapidly evolving field of eukaryotic transcription. This meeting follows nine highly successful meetings on the same topic held in Cold Spring Harbor in 1989, 1991, 1993, 1995, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2005 and will be organized according to the same basic format. The meeting will be open with attendance limited only by the facilities available to a maximum of 450 participants. Oral presentations will consist of a combination of invited presentations and selected presentations from submitted abstracts. This ensures the participation of junior and senior leaders in the field and the presentation of the most exciting results emerging at the time of the meeting. The oral presentations will be complemented by poster presentations in three poster sessions, also selected from submitted abstracts. The areas covered by the meeting on Mechanisms of Eukaryotic Transcription include studies on 1) Initiation/Elongation, 2) Regulatory Complexes, 3) Activators/Genomics, 4) Signaling, 5) Non-Conventional Regulation, 6) Chromatin Remodeling, 7) Histone Modifications, 8) Disease and Development. A number of eukaryotic systems including mammalian systems, Drosophila, nematode, and yeast, will be represented.
