Hi everyone,
Postdoctoral positions in x-ray crystallography is available starting
Jan 2007.
*A.* Duration: 18 months+, financed by the Ile-de-France regional Funds.
No restrictions on applicants. Start Date: Jan 2007
*
B*. Duration: 36 months+, financed by the Pasteur Foundation NY USA.
45,000 USD /year
American Citizenship required. Deadline for submitting competitive
application 02/Feb/2007. Start date Fall 2007.
Description: Macromolecular x-ray crystallography of integrase-DNA
complexes in site-specific recombination and other Protein-protein
interactions. The biochemistry and structural details of these complexes
will be determined in view characterizing their mechanism and for
designing small molecule ligands and new molecular tools.
*Ref.* */Nature/ 440 1157-62 (2006)*.
Requirements: Ph.D. in Protein Crystallography, Biochemistry or
Chemistry with experience in protein x-ray crystallography. Experience
in MAD/MIR and synchrotron data collection, phasing and refinement.
Experience with biophysical techniques such as fluorescence, calorimetry
and ultra-centrifugation, or interest in applying these, will be
helpful. We are equipped with Rigaku generators and Mar imaging plates,
and Cartesian robotics for large scale crystallization. Access to the
