[Arabidopsis] Postdoc Position in Molecular Cell Biology

[Andreas Nebenfuehr]

Postdoctoral Position in Molecular Cell Biology

A NSF-funded postdoctoral position is available immediately to  
investigate protein-protein interactions involved in motor attachment  
to organelles in plant cells. The successful candidate will employ  
both affinity purification of protein complexes and yeast two-hybrid  
screens to identify proteins interacting with myosin motor proteins.  
Prior experience with these techniques is a plus but not required.  
This project is part of a larger effort to elucidate the molecular  
mechanisms underlying organelle movements and cytoplasmic streaming  
in plant cells. More information on our research can be found on our  
lab web site at http://www.bio.utk.edu/cellbiol .
A Ph.D. in molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, or a  
related discipline is required. Expertise in plant molecular biology,  
biochemistry, and protein purification is highly desirable.
