3rd International Conference on Post-Translational Modifications in Bacteria

"3rd International Conference on Post-Translational Modifications in Bacteria", Tuebingen, Germany, Dec. 3-4, 2018

Following the successful meetings in Göttingen (2014) and Lyon (2016), the third edition of the international meeting dedicated to post-translational modifications (PTMs) in bacteria will be held on 3rd and 4th of December 2018, in Tübingen, Germany.

The meeting topics will cover protein phosphorylation, uridylation, acetylation, glycosylation, pupylation, targeted degradation and other modifications, as well as the methods used to study them.

A special issue of Frontiers in Microbiology focusing on bacterial PTMs will be opened for paper contributions from the conference participants and the best presentation from a young scientist (PhD/PostDoc) will be awarded.

To foster scientific exchange and quality, the meeting will be opened to 75 participants selected on the basis of their submitted abstracts.
