# CONFERENCE ON 2ND MESSENGERS AND PROTEIN PHOSPHORYLATION

> **NIH NIH R13** · MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL HOSPITAL · 1994 · $6,000

## Abstract

The Gordon Research Conference on Second Messengers and Protein
Phosphorylation in June 1994 will focus on the structure, function and
regulation of the signal transduction elements that participate in
signalling through growth regulatory, cytokine and insulin receptors.
Remarkable progress has been accomplished in the identification of the
elements that comprise these regulatory networks, and in understanding the
interactions of these proteins. The Conference will illustrate the variety
of methodologic approaches that have enabled these advances, including
genetic analyses in nonmammalian systems, expression cloning strategies,
new methods for examining protein-protein interactions and structural
approaches. The Conference will provide, as in the past, a vigorous and
open forum for exchange of the latest information, the identification of
the crucial current questions and a collegial atmosphere to foster
intellectual cross-fertilization and new initiatives. The Conference has
traditionally elicited poster presentations from a major fraction of the
noninvited participants, and has thereby encouraged active involvement by
graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and investigators relatively new
to the field.

The sessions planned for the 1994 Conference are: 1) Receptors and
Nonreceptor Tyrosine Kinases; 2) Protein Tyrosine and Ser/Thr
Phosphatases: 3) Regulation of the Cell Cycle; 4) Signal Transduction
Through Ras; 5) Insulin-regulated Signal Transduction Pathways; 6) Newly
Emerging Signal Transduction Pathways; 7) Regulation of Gene Expression;
8) Heterotrimeric GTPases - Structure and Effector Regulation; 9) The
Plenary Lecture by Dr. Eric Kandel will provide a perspective on the role
and integration of protein tyrosine and Ser/Thr phosphorylation in the
generation of adaptive responses by the central nervous system.
