Protein-RNA Interactions

Protein-RNA Interactions is organized by Keystone Symposia on Molecular and Cellular Biology and will be held from Jan 29 - Feb 01, 2023, at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Description:
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) binding proteins (RBPs) are a significant group of regulators encoded in more than 2 000 human genes. In the last few years, the millions of interactions between protein and RNA in various cellular contexts have been tracked through ever-growing scalable technology that has provided opportunities for more connections to genetics and diseases. Additionally, remarkable advances in microscopy and structural methods have provided important insights into the interactions between proteins and RNA. The conference addresses the growing interest from both the translational and basic life science communities in imagining interactions between protein and RNA as a collection of novel biochemistry and a drug target.

The main objectives of the meeting are:
• Serve as a platform to bring together multi-disciplinary experts in diverse areas of the RNA community to exchange ideas and cross-fertilize new ideas in the field of fundamental protein-RNA science, 
• Introduce newcomers to the most recent methods and outcomes in the field.
• Present and discuss new targets and strategies for therapeutic possibilities. This conference will be held in conjunction with Biomolecular Condensates, which is a natural partnership since the RNA-binding proteins perform key parts in condensing DNA-protein interactions.

Note: This course is also available On-Demand.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
