[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Position at University of Copenhagen: Protein Fibrillation
I am seeking a postdoctoral researcher, who wishes to work on the structural aspects of protein fibrillation. In this project, a combination of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis and macromolecular crystallography will be applied, investigating peptide and protein systems with relevance in either amyloid disease of drug development. The BioSAXS group at the University of Copenhagen is part of the Biostructural Research Sector, at the Department of Drug Design and Pharmacology. The BioSAXS group currently consists of the PI + 3 post-docs (+ the new researcher) and 6 PhD-students. The position is financed by Sapere Aude, which is a Research Career Programme of the Danish Council for Independent Research. For more information, please contact Asc. Prof. Bente Vestergaard (bente.vesterga...@sund.ku.dk) or see the full posting at http://www.ku.dk/stillinger/vip/. Please note that it is only possible to apply by following the directions on-line. Deadline for application is Feb. 8th 2013. The position is available at the earliest time convenient for the best candidate.

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Positions at Cornell University
Two Structural Biology postdoctoral positions are available in my lab to work on (1) the structural aspects of proteins and complexes involved in a prokaryotic RNA interference pathway, and (2) the structure and conformation dynamics of riboswitches in gene regulation. Representative publications can be found in PNAS 2007; 104(43):16844-9, Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2008 ;15(10):1076-83, Science 2012;336(6089):1726-9, and Structure 2012; 20(9):1574-1564. The lab is equipped with extensive crystallographic and nucleic acid biochemistry resources, and is within walking distance to the synchrotron beamlines at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS). These positions are funded by NIH. Candidates should have (or expect) a Ph.D. in Structural Biology, with solid experience in protein purification, crystallization, phasing, and structure refinement. Prior experience with nucleic acid and/or baculovirus expression system are desired. For more information, please contact Asc. Prof. Ailong Ke (ak...@cornell.edumailto:ak...@cornell.edu), or learn more about our research at https://sites.google.com/site/kelaboratory/Home Ailong Ke Associate Professor Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics Cornell University Ithaca NY, 14853 tel: (607)255-3945
[ccp4bb] phasing with EM map using Amore
Hi, I am trying to use a cryo-EM map as a MR model for an Xtal data set. I have calculated structure factors for my map using SFALL. And then used rotcross function and translation function searches (from AMORE) to determine the MR solution. So, finally I got X, Y, Z fractional coordinates and Euler alpha, beta , gamma. Usually I start with a coordinate file (pdb) as a model whereas my initial model is a map. So how am I supposed to apply this solution to the mtz file from my initial map? Is there is a program/script available that can be used to apply those rotations and translation to structure factors ? Or am I proceeding in the wrong direction? I tried to use Phaser and Molrep but it did not give a solution. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you. -Sujata Halder
