Dear all,
Please could you bring this advert to the attention of any potential
candidates.
Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry at the
Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg/Germany
A post-doc position and a PhD position in structural biology is
available in the group of
Prof. Dietmar A. Plattner.
The project involves investigations of structure-function
relationships of fungal ligninolytic redox enzymes (e. g.
peroxidases, laccases, ref. Blodig et al., JMB, 851, 2001; Piontek et
al., JBC, 37663, 2002) by means of X-ray crystallography. The studies
will be part of the integrated project BIORENEW (6th EU-Framework
Programme), which involves 26 partners from academic institutions and
from industry.
