1SMA Dynamics of multi-layered supramolecular assemblies : from molecular complexes to organelles

Tue. Nov 14, 2023 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM Room M (Conference Room 431+432 (Bldg. 4, 3F))

Organizers: Nakamura Hideki (Kyoto Univ.)、Matsuoka Yoshitaka (The Univ. of Tokyo)

共催:JST/さきがけ「高次構造体」

Cells contain multi-layered supramolecular assemblies ranging from nanometer- to micrometer-scale structures such as protein complexes, RNA-protein complexes, liquid droplets, and organelles. These ordered and dynamic structures orchestrated by tons of molecules convey complex biological information to regulate various key functions in diverse biological processes. Insights into spatiotemporal dynamics of each supramolecular assembly must thus be getting important to understand the rich behaviors of cells. Accordingly, technologies to approach the dynamics of supramolecular assemblies have been explosively diversified in recent biology. In this symposium, we will invite talented early-career researchers from various relevant research fields and discuss the dynamic function of multi-layered supramolecular assemblies.
