description: This volume summarizes the presentations made at the third international meeting of its kind, held in Zeist, The Netherlands. The two previous conferences had witnessed the increasing importance of brain phosphoproteins in the study of the brain. The rapid acceleration in our knowledge is evident as we progress from a period of characterizing spots on a gel to considering their physiological implications from a diversity of behavioral psychology, neurophysiology, pharmacology, cellular and molecular biology, each providing a view of brain phosphoprotein function from a unique perspective. The present volume retains as its primary focus the function of those nervous system proteins that are kinases or substrates for kinases, and reveals the first wave of research emerging from the cloning of the cDNA for both kinase and substrate. An incisive presentation focusing on protein kinase and its substrates is included in the volume and provides the basis for discussion for many of the subsequent contributions.
