Dear all,
There is an open postdoctoral position in my lab. We are interested in the structure and function of integral membrane enzymes that catalyze protein lipidation (Science, 2018, 359, eaao6326; PNAS., 2022 Feb 15;119(7):e2022050119) and transporters of transition metal ions (J Biol Chem. 2018;293(10):3819-3828; PNAS, 2019,116,17775-17785). We combine structural techniques such as cryoEM and macromolecular crystallography with biophysical and biochemical methods such as reconstitution based assays, high resolution light microscopy and small molecule screening to ask mechanistic questions. We are also increasingly becoming invested in structure inspired cell biological questions.
The candidates should hold a Ph.D. degree, be author of at least one first author publication and have a strong background in biochemistry or structural biology. Experience with basic molecular biology, protein expression, purification and biochemical characterization are required. Prior experience in membrane protein biochemistry or cryoEM will be added advantages.
Interested candidates can send an e-mail to anirban.banerjee@nih.gov with a CV and a summary of previous research experience and future interests.
The NIH is dedicated to building a diverse community in its training and employment programs.
Please help spread the word to interested candidates.
Thanks,
Anirban
