Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position, ideally beginning
Sept. 1, 2001, at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, to
characterize structural aspects of the binding interface between
proteins. Over-expression systems exist for several hetero-dimeric and
trimeric protein complexes. Current projects are directed at cytoplasmic
signalling molecules.
The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art molecular biology and
protein purification facilities and has full access to the department’s
R-AXIS IV detector.
Applicants must have a PhD degree and should have a good background in
biochemistry with experience in protein purification and crystallography
techniques. Previous experience in molecular biology would be beneficial
but is not a pre-requisite.
Interested candidates are encouraged to contact me by e-mail:
elias at magna.med.yale.edu. Applicants should send a full curriculum
vitae and the names and addresses of two referees to Dr. Elias
Fernandez, BCMB, M407 Walters Life Sciences Building, Knoxville, TN
37996-0840, USA.
