A 3-year PhD student position in protein biochemistry/structural
biology is available at the Institute of Biochemistry, Biocenter of
the Julius-Maximilians-University, Wuerzburg/Germany.
The successful applicant will work on the Survival Motor Neuron (SMN)
complex, a key player during the pathogenesis of Spinal Muscular
Atrophy (SMA). The work will comprise optimization of protein
constructs for crystallization, biochemical characterization, protein
purification and crystallographic data collection. In addition, the
post offers an excellent opportunity to acquire crystallographic
skills, as there are already diffracting protein complex crystals
available. The salary level is on grade TV-L E13/2 (? 19.912 ? 28.744
p. a. plus family allowance, if applicable).
