DESCRIPTION: (adapted from application abstract) Since its genesis in 1972, the Gordon Conference on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenesis has been a primary source of information gathering and exchange for scientists in the field of microbial pathogenesis. The phenomenal advances over the last decade in understanding the mode of action of known toxins at the molecular level, the identification of common and novel virulence determinants in a variety of bacterial pathogens, and the application of new molecular, cellular, and immunological tools to address basic questions of how microbes cause disease have moved this field into the forefront of modern biology. The 1998 Conference will include 8 plenary sessions on the following topics: 1) In vivo apoptosis; 2) technology; 3) regulation of gene expression; 4) microbe-host signaling; 5) new toxins/mechanisms; 6) genomics; 7) Structural biology of toxins/virulence factors; 8) secretion of toxins/virulence factors. An additional 9th session is planned but the topic and speakers have not been decided at the time of this grant submission. This ninth session will provide the flexibility to schedule the very latest advances for the meeting so as not to "lock into" a scientific program that is out-of-date by the time the meeting actually occurs. Speakers for these sessions have been chosen to provide a mixture of senior investigators and junior investigators who may not have previously presented at a Gordon Conference. Poster sessions will supplement the plenary sessions and there will be ample opportunity for informal discussion among participants.

描述：（改编自申请摘要）自 1972 年诞生以来， 戈登微生物毒素和发病机制会议 科学家收集和交流信息的主要来源 微生物发病机制领域。 与过去相比取得了惊人的进步 十年来从分子角度了解已知毒素的作用模式 水平，确定常见和新的毒力决定因素 多种细菌病原体，以及新分子的应用， 细胞和免疫学工具来解决微生物如何 病因已将这一领域推向了现代生物学的前沿。 1998年会议将包括8次全体会议，主题如下： 1）体内细胞凋亡； 2）技术； 3）基因表达的调控； 4） 微生物-宿主信号传导； 5）新的毒素/机制； 6）基因组学； 7) 结构 毒素/毒力因子生物学； 8) 毒素/毒力的分泌 因素。 计划额外举行第 9 次会议，但主题和发言人 在提交本赠款时尚未做出决定。 这九 会议将提供安排最新进展的灵活性 会议，以免“锁定”科学计划 到会议实际召开时已过时。 这些的扬声器 选择会议的目的是提供高级研究人员和 以前可能没有参加过戈登会议的初级调查员 会议。 海报会议将作为全体会议的补充 将为与会者提供充足的非正式讨论机会。
