Scope of the Meeting
This meeting will focus on the mechanisms of protein degradation and trafficking in different organisms and their mode of signalling and regulation. Several human diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases result when the regulation of trafficking events is not operating correctly. A panel of world-wide recognized experts will participate in this meeting as invited speakers and the following topics will be addressed: endocytic and exocytic mechanisms, retrograde sorting, Rab Regulation in membrane trafficking, autophagy, the ESCRT pathway, SUMO and ubiquitin.
