Proposal Objectives:  The primary objective of this U.S.-Hungary                workshop organized by Dr. Bob B. Buchanan of the University of                  California at Berkeley and by Dr. Arpad Balogh of Bessenyei College,            Hungary, is to meet and discuss fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate.  This               recently discovered metabolite is rapidly assuming increased importance         in plant research because it affects the sucrose and starch content in          higher plants.  Advances in the field have not led to a unified                 explanation.  This workshop will bring together key experts with various        views to explore competing theories.                                                                                                                            Relevance of Proposal to Program Objectives:  This activity fulfills the        program objective of advancing scientific knowledge in metabolic biology        by enabling leading experts of the U.S. and Eastern Europe to combine           complementary talents, pool resources, and share research experience in         an area of strong mutual interest and competence.                                                                                                               Merit:  The proposal ranks in the Excellent category.  Its technical            merit therefore warrants NSF support.  The U.S. and Hungarian                   organizers' and participants' professional credentials are very well            regarded and the rationale for international cooperation is clearly             articulated.  The workshop should yield new plans for long-term,                mutually beneficial cooperative research projects.                                                                                                              Interrelated Projects:  The NSF program in Metabolic Biology supports           Dr. Buchanan's ongoing research in regulatory mechanisms in carbohydrate        synthesis and breakdown (DMB-8314892).                                                                                                                          Funding:  The requested budget covers modest travel expenses of the U.S.        participants, in accordance with program guidelines.  All other costs in        Hungary will be covered by the Hungarian Ministry of Education.
