I am posting on behalf of Dr. Dirk Slotboom, which has a job opening
for a postdoctoral researcher.
Post doc position in protein crystallography
A 3-year postdoctoral position is available to study the structure of
membrane transporters by X-ray crystallography. The position is part
of a European Framework 7 program aimed at the structural elucidation
of transporters and channels.
The project aims at the elucidation of the molecular mechanism of ABC
(ATP binding cassette) transporters involved in osmoregulation and
multidrug transport (e.g. PNAS USA, 2006, 103:10624). The ABC
transporters to be studied have been overexpressed already in our lab
and can be purified in large quantities (e.g. Nature Meth., 2007 4:
705) Therefore, the project is ready for immediate crystallization
trials and structure elucidation.
Applicants must have demonstrated experience with methods used for
protein purification, crystallization and structure determination.
Experience with membrane proteins is not absolutely required. Salary
will be commensurate with experience and is in addition to a generous
fringe benefit package.
For more information about the position or to apply, please email a
current CV including a brief description of your research interests
and accomplishments, and the names and addresses of two referees to
Bert Poolman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Dirk Slotboom ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
Please do not respond to me.
Thank you.
