DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2006 Molecular & Cellular Bioenergetics Gordon Research Conference, which now meets annually, will be held at the Proctor Academy, Andover, New Hampshire from June 11-16, 2006. The Conference provides an interdisciplinary group of researchers and research trainees the opportunity to present, discuss, and debate recent developments in three areas of Bioenergetics: F/V-type ATPases, electron transport, and cellular bioenergetics. In 2005 the program emphasized cellular bioenergetics; in 2006 the program will be balanced with a moderate emphasis on ATPases. Nine formal sessions are planned. Novel sessions focus on single molecule analyses of the rotary mechanism of ATP synthase, the formation and function of supercomplexes, and the production of reactive oxygen species coupled to mitochondrial signalling. Other sessions will highlight recent breakthroughs in the structure, function and regulation of ATP synthase/VATPase, the function, assembly and maturation of the respiratory chain, and cell membrane transport processes. These sessions will integrate cellular bioenergetics with the other areas. One morning will feature brief presentations of the latest, unpublished results from posters. The Conference schedule features formal presentations and discussion periods in the mornings and evenings, and informal poster sessions late in the afternoon. This schedule is designed to provide much time for both formal and informal discussion and to promote interdisciplinary understanding and collaboration. The Conference has an attendance of 100-120; participants include not only leading scientists from universities, research institutes, government and industry around the world, but also a substantial number of research trainees. Lay description: Bioenergetics is the area of biological science concerning how living organisms obtain energy from nutrients. The processes involved are fundamentally similar in microorganisms and in specialized compartments, called mitochondria, found in the cells of higher organisms including humans. Bioenergetic processes also play important roles in the regulating cell growth, and their failure often leads to diseases. Scientists from around the world who are interested in understanding these processes meet at the Molecular & Cellular Bioenergetics Gordon Conference to present and discuss their latest results.

The Conference provides an interdisciplinary group of researchers and research trainees the opportunity to present, discuss, and debate recent developments in three areas of Bioenergetics: F/V-type ATPases, electron运输和细胞生物能学。 2005年，该计划强调了细胞生物能学； 2006年，该计划将与ATPases的适度重视保持平衡。计划九次正式会议。新的会议集中于ATP合酶旋转机制，超复合物的形成和功能的单分子分析，以及与线粒体信号传导相连的活性氧种的产生。其他课程将重点介绍ATP合酶/VATPase的结构，功能和调节，呼吸链的功能，组装和成熟以及细胞膜传输过程的最新突破。这些会议将将细胞生物能学与其他领域相结合。一个早晨将简要介绍海报的最新，未发表的结果。会议时间表在早晨和晚上的正式演讲和讨论期以及下午晚些时候的非正式海报会议。该时间表旨在为正式和非正式讨论提供大量时间，并促进跨学科的理解和协作。会议的出席人数为100-120；参与者不仅包括大学，研究机构，政府和世界各地的领先科学家，还包括大量的研究受训者。 外表描述：生物能学是生物科学领域，涉及生物如何从营养中获得能量。所涉及的过程在微生物和专门的隔室（称为线粒体）中与包括人类在内的较高生物体的细胞中发现。生物能过程在调节细胞生长中也起着重要作用，它们的失败通常会导致疾病。来自世界各地的科学家对理解这些过程感兴趣的科学家在分子和细胞生物能力戈登会议上会议介绍和讨论他们的最新结果。
