A NATO Advanced Study Institute on "New Developments in
Lipid-Protein Interactions and Receptor Function" was held on the
Island of Spetsai, Greece, from August 16-27, 1992. This Institute
was organized to bring together researchers in the field of
membrane organization and dynamics with those actively involved in
studies on receptor function, signal transduction mechanisms and
gene regulation. 2 Presentations and discussions focussed on the
regulation of intracellular Ca +-levels, on the second messengers
derived from inositol lipids and on the specific phospholipase C
isozymes involved in these processes. A major focus was on
G-proteins and the effect of lipid anchors on their function. These
principles of regulation were further discussed in the context of
receptors for acetylcholine, lysophosphatidic acid and low-density
lipoproteins. In addition, various aspects of the genomic
regulation of cell growth and differentiation by transcription
factors were presented. These topics were put into perspective by
discussing the most recent developments in lipid-protein
interactions, protein insertion into membranes, membrane lipid
organization and lipid dynamics as mediated by phospholipid
transfer proteins. This book presents the content of the major
lectures and a selection of the most relevant of the most important
topics posters. These proceedings offer a comprehensive account
presented during the course of the Institute. The book is intended
to make these proceedings accessible to a large audience.
