The International Society of Developmental Biologists (ISDB) is a non-profit scientific association which has as its aim the promotion of the study of developmental biology. To this effect, the ISDB also organises and supports scientific meetings and workshops. Formerly known as the International Institute of Embryology (IIE), the ISDB was renamed in September 1968. The International Society of Developmental Biologists consists of individual members and society members. ... [Information of the supplier]
Auf dieser Seite präsentiert Janelia Research Campus des The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) in Ashburn (Virgina) die Supporting Information von drei Veröffentlichungen. Die Publikationen beschäftigen sich mit Hilfe von biologischen Modellorganismen wie der Taufliege Drosophila melanogaster und des Zebrabärblings Danio rerio durch Fluoreszenzuntersuchungen mit der Embryonalentwicklung. Hierbei werden innovative und leistungsfähige Mikroskopiemethoden wie beispielsweise Erweiterungen der Light-sheet-Mikroskopie sowie der 3D Structured Illumination-Microskopie eingesetzt, die eine Auflösung jenseits der von Ernst Abbe beschriebenen optischen Auflösungsgrenze erreichen. ...

On behalf of the Japanese Society of Developmental Biologists (JSDB) and the Gesellschaft für Entwicklungsbiologie (GfE) we cordially invite you to attend the Joint Meeting of the German and Japanese Societies of Developmental Biologists (GfE/JSDB Meeting 2017) to be held in Kiel, Germany from 15–18 March 2017. In a joint effort, we've put together a program we believe will be stimulating and representing current trends and excitements in Developmental Biology with specific focus on research carried out in Japan and Germany. Through a variety of inspiring invited keynote lectures, talks from the participants, workshops and poster sessions, we will discuss the major breakthroughs and developments in Developmental Biology. The emphasis of the meeting is very much upon discussion and there is plenty of time within the program to make this possible. In addition to an excellent scientific program, there will be many opportunities for networking as well as enjoyable social events. In a special ceremony held at Kiel City Hall, the Klaus Sander Prize as well as the Hilde Mangold Prize of the GfE will be awarded. We are also celebrating 50 years of JSDB. A Young Investigator Lunch "Career perspectives in Developmental Biology" sponsored by the DFG and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation will not only inform the junior scientist about funding possibilities but also allow one-to-one talks with representatives of the DFG, the JSPS, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and members of the corresponding reviewing panels. If you would like to join the conference and present your observations in a talk or a poster, please register via www.gfe-meeting.de. Should you have any questions please contact us or the scientific management of this meeting, Mrs. Wenke Schütte/Conventus at any time. We hope you find the agenda interesting and join us in Kiel, the capital of the northern German federal state of Schleswig-Holstein with its beautiful setting on the Kiel Fjord. ...

This symposium focuses on the role of metabolism in controlling cellular and developmental programs in its spatial and temporal complexity. There is a fundamental interest in deciphering the intricate link between metabolism and regulatory cellular programs during cell differentiation and the development of multicellular organisms. Recent technological progress has enabled us to analyse metabolism and metabolic activities with spatio-temporal resolution. This creates unprecedented potential to address how metabolic state impacts on cellular and developmental programs. Aims: It is the overarching goal of this meeting to enable interdisciplinary discussion on the role of metabolism in controlling cellular and developmental programs in its spatial and temporal complexity. Special focus will be given to discuss emerging imaging or biosensor technologies and bioinformatics and how they can enable addressing fundamental biological questions. ...

The p53 tumor suppressor gene was initially identified as being essential for the DNA damage checkpoint, but it was subsequently found to have a broader function after cellular stress, such as oncogene activation or hypoxia. The p53 protein functions as a tetrameric transcription factor found at very low levels in normal unstressed cells. After stress, different pathways lead to post-translational modification of the protein and its stabilization. p53 database contains 16,000+ entries corresponding to TP53 mutations found in tumors, normal skin, and noncancerous diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. The database also includes germline mutations found in Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) and LFS-like syndrome. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
The Mammal Species of the World (MSW) is a database of mammalian taxonomy. It is hoped that this database on the World Wide Web can be used as a convenient on-line reference for identifying or verifying recognized scientific names and for taxonomic research. The names are organized in a hierarchy that includes Order, Family, Subfamily, Genus and Species. ... [Information of the supplier]
Organs and organelles represent core biological systems in mammals, but the diversity in protein composition remains unclear. Here, we combine subcellular fractionation with exhaustive tandem mass spectrometry-based shotgun sequencing to examine the protein content of four major organellar compartments (cytosol, membranes [microsomes], mitochondria and nuclei) in six organs (brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung and placenta) of the laboratory mouse, Mus musculus. Using rigorous statistical filtering and machine-learning methods, the subcellular localization of 3274 of the 4768 proteins identified was determined with high-confidence, including 1503 previously uncharacterized factors, while tissue-selectivity was evaluated by comparison to previously reported mRNA expression patterns. This molecular compendium, fully accessible via a searchable web-browser interface, serves as a reliable reference of the expressed tissue and organelle proteomes of a leading model mammal. ...

Online Mendelian Inheritance in Animals (OMIA) is a database of genes, inherited disorders and traits in more than 135 animal species (other than human and mouse) authored by Professor Frank Nicholas of the University of Sydney, Australia, with help from many people over the years. The database contains textual information and references, as well as links to relevant PubMed and Gene records at the NCBI. ... [Information of the supplier]
