Dear Colleagues, My laboratory is seeking to fill two postdoctoral positions that are immediately available for highly motivated biochemists/structural biologists interested in studying molecular mechanisms of signaling by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins.
Posttranslational modification of proteins by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like modifiers occurs through the sequential activities of a cascade of enzymes and a major focus of the laboratory is to understand the structural basis by which this enzymatic machinery functions. We address these issues using a multidisciplinary approach that combines X-ray crystallography, biochemical/biophysical techniques, and cell-based studies. Candidates should hold a PhD in a relevant field with demonstrated expertise in X-ray crystallography and/or the biochemical analysis of protein ubiquitination. MUSC is well-equipped for all aspects of X-ray crystallography, including institutional membership of the SER-CAT facility at the Advanced Photon Source. We have a vibrant and growing program in structural biology and work in a highly collaborative environment. The University is located in historic Charleston, SC where the weather is beautiful year-round. There are several beaches within minutes of the city and the mountains are only three hours away. In addition to these amenities, the art, history, food, and festivals make Charleston a fantastic place to work and live. Interested candidates should e-mail a cover letter, CV, and the names of three references to olse...@musc.edu and apply online at http://careers.pageuppeople.com/756/cw/en-us/job/510945/univ-postdoctoral-scholar-biochemistry-molecular-biology. The positions will remain open until filled. Best Regards, -Shaun ------------------------------------------------- Shaun K.
