DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The principal objective of the 2006 Cell Biology of Metals Gordon Conference is to provide a forum for presentation of new developments and for exchanging ideas in this emerging field. The meeting will bring together scientists, ranging from established investigators to graduate students, to present and discuss the most recent advances in eukaryotic cell biology involving copper, iron and zinc ions and the corresponding metalloproteins. The cell biology of metals encompasses the uptake, distribution and use of metals in cells and organelles. Metals are taken up across membranes and are directed to various cellular destinations, ultimately finding their way into the correct metalloproteins. Intricate mechanisms control uptake, distribution, trafficking, and insertion into proteins. Transporters, chelators, metal cofactors, chaperones (classic sense), metallochaperones, transcription factors and translation regulators are involved. The level of complexity equals that of the protein trafficking pathways that have been characterized in modern cell biology. An important goal is to understand how protein trafficking pathways and metal trafficking pathways are integrated and intersect. Other goals are to understand how cells achieve metal ion homeostasis, how cells sense diverse metal ions, and how homeostatic mechanisms for different metal ions are interconnected. Cellular malfunction or disease ensue if any of the steps in metal homeostasis are perturbed, and the meeting will bring out these disease links. The sessions will generally be organized according to cell structure, cutting across metals (Fe, Cu, Zn, Mo) and evolutionary categories. Sessions are planned to address transport of metals into cells, metals in endocytic and secretory compartments, mitochondria and iron, mitochondria and copper, metals in chloroplasts, metal cofactors, metals in global regulatory programs and metal allocation and sensing. The novelty of the Cell Biology of Metals Conference lies in its unique focus on cell biological issues related to metal ions and the focus on multiple physiological ions.

描述（由申请人提供）： 2006 年金属细胞生物学戈登会议的主要目标是提供一个展示这一新兴领域的新进展和交流思想的论坛。会议将汇集从知名研究人员到研究生的科学家，展示和讨论涉及铜、铁和锌离子以及相应金属蛋白的真核细胞生物学的最新进展。金属的细胞生物学包括金属在细胞和细胞器中的吸收、分布和使用。金属被跨膜吸收并被引导至各种细胞目的地，最终找到进入正确金属蛋白的途径。复杂的机制控制蛋白质的摄取、分布、运输和插入。涉及转运蛋白、螯合剂、金属辅助因子、分子伴侣（经典意义）、金属分子伴侣、转录因子和翻译调节因子。其复杂程度相当于现代细胞生物学中描述的蛋白质运输途径的复杂程度。一个重要的目标是了解蛋白质运输途径和金属运输途径如何整合和交叉。其他目标是了解细胞如何实现金属离子稳态，细胞如何感知不同的金属离子，以及不同金属离子的稳态机制如何相互关联。如果金属稳态的任何步骤受到干扰，细胞功能障碍或疾病就会随之而来，会议将指出这些疾病的联系。 会议通常根据细胞结构、金属（铁、铜、锌、钼）和进化类别进行组织。会议计划讨论金属进入细胞的运输、内吞和分泌室中的金属、线粒体和铁、线粒体和铜、叶绿体中的金属、金属辅助因子、全球监管计划中的金属以及金属分配和传感。金属细胞生物学会议的新颖之处在于其独特地关注与金属离子相关的细胞生物学问题以及对多种生理离子的关注。
