The Gordon Conference on Bacterial Cell Surfaces, to be held in July 1990, is the ninth in a series of productive meetings that bring together outstanding scientists who are using a wide range of approaches to investigate both the structural and the functional aspects of bacterial cell surfaces. The topics that are to be emphasized at this meeting include: 1) interaction of bacteria with other cells and with their environment during both pathogenic and non-pathogenic associations, 2) signal transmission through the envelope, 3) transport of small molecules through the membranes, 4) the regulated and orderly assembly of the constituents of the envelope compartments, 5) the involvement of cell membranes in the mechanism of DNA replication and cell division, and 6) and the function of membranes in energy transduction phenomena. These areas of research are central to the understanding of many basic cellular processes. In addition, the results to be discussed are of direct relevance to medical problems. Not only are bacteria themselves pathogens, but they also provide, through recombinant DNA technology, a means to produce proteins of medical importance. Two sessions of this meeting will be devoted to the mechanism of secretion of protein. Information will be presented that might be used to improve production of valuable genetically-engineered proteins. The atmosphere of the Gordon Conferences is ideal for promoting extensive interaction among scientists. The participants are together for a week in a remote and isolated location. All the meals are taken together and the afternoons are free. Thus, there is ample opportunity for informal discussion. The arrangement is particularly well-suited for the introduction of new investigators into the community of well-established laboratories.

细菌细胞表面戈登会议，将于 1990 年 7 月举行， 是一系列富有成效的会议中的第九次会议，这些会议汇集了 杰出的科学家们正在使用多种方法 研究细菌的结构和功能方面 细胞表面。本次会议重点讨论的议题 包括：1）细菌与其他细胞以及它们的相互作用 致病性和非致病性关联期间的环境，2) 通过包膜的信号传输，3）小分子的传输 通过膜，4）调节和有序的组装 包膜隔室的组成部分，5）细胞的参与 DNA 复制和细胞分裂机制中的膜，6) 和 膜在能量转换现象中的功能。这些领域的 研究对于理解许多基本细胞过程至关重要。 此外，要讨论的结果与医学直接相关。 问题。细菌不仅本身是病原体，而且还 通过重组DNA技术，提供了一种生产蛋白质的方法 医学重要性。本次会议的两场会议将专门讨论 蛋白质的分泌机制。将提供的信息可能 可用于提高有价值的基因工程蛋白质的生产。 戈登会议的气氛非常适合促进广泛的 科学家之间的互动。参与者在一起度过一周 偏远且孤立的位置。所有的饭菜都是一起吃的 下午自由活动。因此，有充足的机会进行非正式的 讨论。该安排特别适合 将新的调查员引入成熟的社区 实验室。
