Dear all,

The research group of Dr. Sozanne Solmaz is looking to recruit a
postdoctoral research associate. The Solmaz laboratory investigates the
molecular mechanisms for precise, bi-directional positioning of the cell
nucleus by microtubules motors. These cellular transport pathways are
essential for the generation of the majority of the cells in the brain and
associated mutations cause devastating brain and muscle developmental
diseases, including spinal muscular atrophy, which is the most common
genetic cause of death in infants. The successful candidate will combine
cutting edge structural biology approaches (X-ray crystallography and
cryo-electron microscopy) with biophysical techniques, protein
biochemistry, neuroscience and cell biology to investigate how teams of
opposing motor complexes collaborate to achieve correct timing,
directionality and velocity for the positioning of the cell nucleus during
brain development (e.g. eLife 2022, doi: 10.7554/eLife.74714, PLoS Genet.
2023, doi: 0.1371/journal.pgen.1010642). The ideal candidate for this
position will be highly motivated to work both independently to
successfully execute the required studies outlined in our NIH-funded R01
grant and will also thrive in a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary
environment where they interact with other scientists. Binghamton
University is a top-ranked public university in Upstate New York with a
vibrant research community and low cost of living.

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Position(s) - Mechanisms of Assemblies Formation Essential to Muscle Function

2023-09-12 Thread Kristina Djinovic Carugo
*Postdoctoral **Position**(s) - Mechanisms of Assemblies Formation 
Essential to Muscle Function*


**

EMBL Grenoble specializes in fundamental research in structural biology, 
and in developing state-of-the art instrumentation, methods and 
services. The site is located on the dynamic European Photon and Neutron 
science campus (EPN campus), together with other international and 
French research institutions.**


We are recruiting a highly motivated Post-Doctoral Scientist to join the 
Head of Unit’s Research Group at EMBL Grenoble, Kristina Djinovic 
Carugo. The Djinovic group is interested in the molecular mechanisms 
underlying the architecture and assembly of muscle sarcomeres, 
particular Z-discs.


The sarcomere - the basic contractile unit of myocytes - assembles from 
nascent actin-rich Z-bodies into paracrystalline multiprotein structures 
called Z-discs. Yet, the assembly rules and protein components 
regulating these complex structures remain largely unknown. We recently 
discovered that two main Z-disc proteins form phase-separated liquid 
condensates in vitro, which gives rise to the exciting hypothesis that 
phase separation is the driving force behind Z-disc assembly by bringing 
together its proteins to facilitate interactions.


*Djinovic Group is a member of the collaborative project “From disorder 
to order: mechanism of specialised assemblies formation essential for 
muscle function” supported by HFSP Award. Its aim is to investigate how 
highly ordered sarcomeric Z-disc structure arises from disordered 
Z-bodies. We will determine the biophysical and structural principles 
underlying sarcomere cytoskeleton assembly in biogenesis, molecular 
components, and regulators and integrate the data into a 4D multiscale 
integrative molecular model.*


The collaborative team united by HFSP Award will capitalise on 
complementary and synergistic expertise in structural biology and 
modelling (Kristina Djinovic Carugo, EMBL Grenoble; France and Toshiyuki 
Oda, University of Tokyo, Japan), advanced imaging (Jonas Ries, 
University of Vienna, Austria) and cardiovascular development and 
disease (Travis Hinson, The Jackson Laboratory, Farmington, CT, USA) and 
adopt a multifaceted and multiscale approach to tackle the central 
questions on sarcomere cytoskeleton assembly in biogenesis at the 
molecular and structural level.


*Your role*

You will embark on an exciting journey to decipher the structures of 
selected reconstituted complexes and macromolecular condensates using an 
integrative structural biology approach, which encompasses molecular 
biophysics characterisation, combined with small angles X-ray 
scattering, macromolecular crystallography, and cryo-electron 
microscopy/tomography, depending on their size and dynamics. As a team 
member, you will play a crucial role in uncovering the detailed 
biophysical and structural principles that regulate complex assembly. 
Joining collaborative efforts, you will contribute to the generation of 
a 4D multiscale integrative molecular model.

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral position at the University of Pavia in Italy

2023-07-06 Thread Hugo de Jonge
Dear colleagues,

 

The unit of Immunology and General Pathology of the department of Molecular
Medicine of the University of Pavia, in Northern Italy, is looking for a
post-doctoral researcher in structural biology for a three-year appointment.

Our laboratory has worked, since co-discovering the Hepatocyte Growth
Factor/Scatter Factor in the mid-1980s, on the structural aspects of HGF/SF
binding to and activation of the MET tyrosine kinase receptor and the role
of the co-receptor heparan sulphate. The work has yielded insights into the
structures of these complex proteins and formed the basis for the design of
novel inhibitors and recombinant agonists. We recently developed, through
structure-based rational design, a potent agonist called K1K1 that is
currently being tested for treatment of common chronic and acute diseases
affecting lung and liver in collaboration with academic groups in France and
a large international pharmaceutical company.

The project will focus on the full structural characterisation and
mechanistic understanding of receptor activation by K1K1 and the role of
heparan in this using cryo-EM, SAXS, and protein crystallography. The
department of Molecular Medicine is fully equipped for structural biology
with protein expression and crystallisation facilities, a Glacios 200 kV
cryo-EM microscope, and regular access to the ESRF and other European
beamlines. Expertise is shared among several groups working in the field of
biochemistry and protein structure. The University of Pavia, one of the
oldest academic institutions in the world, offers a stimulating environment
while the city itself is vibrant and conveniently located between the Alps,
the Apennines, and the stunning Ligurian coast.

Applicants can apply through the following link:
https://pica.cineca.it/unipv where the project is identified as
medmol-2023-b03 (responsible person: Hugo de Jonge).

For additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral position in method development (York Structural Biology Laboratory)

2023-06-27 Thread Jon Agirre
Dear all,

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position,
funded by the Royal Society, for up to 30 months to work with Dr Jon Agirre in
the Department of Chemistry. The successful applicant will join a vibrant
team of researchers at the heart of the world-leading York Structural
Biology Laboratory (YSBL). The work of the laboratory over the years has
included the delivery of world-leading methods and experimental
discoveries, training and nurturing hundreds of outstanding scientists in
the process.

Role
The AlphaFold software for protein model prediction has revolutionised
workflows in structural biology. However, while high-accuracy models are
now available for most human proteins of medical relevance, up to 50% of
those proteins are expected to be glycosylated – a modification whose
structure AlphaFold does not predict. Protein glycosylation is greatly
important, with implications for protein folding and molecular recognition
including, as evidenced by the spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2, viral
infection. In collaboration with other scientists, we have extended the
Privateer software to interactively build missing glycosylation onto
precalculated AlphaFold models. In parallel, we have developed analyses
that allow us to get a clear picture of glycans and their interactions,
including H-bonds and XH-Pi interactions. We expect that these methods will
enable us to, based on existing glycobiological knowledge, extend the
Privateer software to automatically complete AlphaFold models with crucial
missing glycosylation components.

We are seeking a person with an interest in both biology and coding, who
can collaborate with others in a very diverse team with a mission to
further our knowledge of glycobiology and seize the opportunities presented
by a deeper understanding of it.

Main duties and responsibilities
To develop and extend the Privateer software to complete AlphaFold models
with the missing glycan components.
To further our existing collaborations with CCP4, CCP-EM, PDB-REDO, the
Protein Data Bank and the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database.

Department
The Department of Chemistry is one of the largest and most successful
departments at York and we are renowned internationally for our research.
As a department, we strive to provide a working environment that allows all
staff and students to contribute fully, to flourish, and to excel. We are
proud of our Athena Swan Gold Award. The Department of Chemistry values all
employees for the qualities and skills they bring to the workplace and aims
to be a diverse and egalitarian community in which all can thrive.

For informal enquiries: please contact Dr Jon Agirre, jon.agi...@york.ac.uk
To apply: https://jobs.york.ac.uk/vacancy/research-associate-529961.html
Deadline for applications: 20 August 2023.

Many thanks for making it this far in the advert!

Who Should Apply:
This position could be a great fit for you if:

You have the expertise and experience in structural biology (Cryo-EM, X-ray 
crystallography), and want to apply such skills toward structure determination 
of oncoproteins and aging related proteins complex to understand structural 
basis of how protein degraders work.

You are interested in the emerging field of protein degraders.

You are interested in learning and developing for the cutting-edge protein 
complex engineering and expression technologies.

You are interested in learning and implement computer-aided compound design.

You would like to extend your existing skill sets to cryo-EM.

You relish working on technically challenging problems, which often require an 
extended persistent effort to crack.

Job Description, Qualification, and Expectations:
Primary activities in this position include but are not limited to:
Expression and purification of the protein complexes for biochemical and 
structural studies related to protein degraders

Structure determination of the protein complexes mostly by cryo-EM or/and X-ray

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral position in the Lee lab at Duke University School of Medicine

2023-04-10 Thread Seok-Yong Lee
A NIH-funded postdoctoral research position is open in the laboratory of
Dr. Seok-Yong Lee at Duke University School of Medicine. The successful
candidate will have the opportunity to explore the molecular-level
mechanisms of the machinery that underpin membrane transport processes that
are critical to human health.

The Lee Lab's research is currently centered around three main areas of
membrane transport: calcium permeation in somatosensation, drug/metabolite
transport, and polysaccharide transport in microbial cell wall synthesis.
The types of questions we ask are: what is the molecular basis of
temperature and irritant sensing and why is mint cooling and wasabi spicy?
How do fungi and bacteria construct their intricate cell walls, and how can
these mechanisms be targeted by drugs? How are nutrients and drugs taken up
into cells, and how can we improve drug specificity and potency? To probe
these questions the lab employs a diverse range of techniques, including
cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), biochemistry, biophysics, chemical
biology, and computational approaches.

Recent notable publications from the lab include:

   - Yin et al., Science, 2022
   - Wright, Fedor, et al., Nature, 2022
   - Ren et al., Nat. Struct. & Mol. Biol., 2022

   - Kwon et al., Nat. Struct. & Mol. Biol., 2021

For more information, visit the Lee Lab website:
https://sites.duke.edu/leelab/

This position presents an exceptional opportunity for skilled biochemists
or structural biologists with an interest in connecting structural biology
to membrane biology. Candidates will benefit from joining a diverse and
highly collaborative research group with excellent training opportunities
and research facilities. A strong background in either cryo-EM or membrane
protein biochemistry is advantageous, but not mandatory.

To apply, please submit the following materials to seok-yong@duke.edu:

   - Curriculum vitae or resume including a list of publications and
   contact information for three references
   - Statement of research interests

[ccp4bb] postdoctoral position

2022-11-14 Thread Phoebe A. Rice
[Text  Description automatically generated]
Postdoctoral Position in the Rice Lab at the University of Chicago.

Mechanism, Engineering, and Structural Biology of Large Serine Integrases
A postdoctoral position is available immediately the laboratory of Dr. Phoebe 
Rice.


Large serine integrases (LSIs; derived from lysogenic phages) mediate precise 
site-specific DNA recombination (integration, excision, or inversion), leaving 
not a single nick in the DNA backbone.  Control of LSI directionality is 
uniquely simple.  The integrase itself catalyzes phage insertion, but not the 
reverse (excision) reaction. Excision requires a 2nd protein called a 
recombination directionality factor (RDF), that binds its cognate integrase and 
alters its conformation in an unknown manner that somehow inhibits integration 
and activates excision. LSI-RDF pairs can catalyze the insertion of large 
payloads without relying on host DNA repair (unlike CRISPR-Cas-based systems) 
and can scarlessly and controllably reverse those insertions (unlike any other 
system).


This project seeks to (1) understand, through cryo electron microscopy and 
biochemistry, how an RDF interacts with its cognate integrase to control the 
reaction direction; (2) through bioinformatics and protein engineering, 
eliminate the current bottleneck in identifying cognate RDFs for individual 
LSIs and (3) enhance the usefulness of RDFs by engineering new control 
mechanisms into them.  The project is funded by a new large, collaborative NSF 
+ UKRI/BBSRC award to the Rice (https://voices.uchicago.edu/phoebericelab/) and 
Olorunniji (Olorunniji 
lab)
 labs.



Successful applicants will have a Ph.D. or MD/PhD in the broadly defined fields 
of Biochemistry, Biophysics, and/or Molecular Biology.  Experience with the 
tools of structural biology and / or nucleic acid biochemistry is preferred.  
Applicants should be eager to learn new skills and systems, and should have 
effective communication, teamworking and problem-solving skills.



The postdoctoral fellow will be part of the vibrant local structural biology, 
protein engineering and microbiology communities, with access to our 
state-of-the-art electron microscopy facilities 
https://voices.uchicago.edu/advancedem/.  Mentorship will be tailored to the 
fellow’s goals and can include, for instance, participation in the University’s 
MyChoice career development program and guided mentorship of diverse 
undergraduate students.


To apply, email Dr. Rice at pr...@uchicago.edu and include a cover letter 
explaining relevant work experience and interest in this position, a CV and the 
contact information of 2-3 references.

2022-09-04 Thread Kristina Djinovic Carugo

*Postdoctoral position in structural biology of Comammox in Vienna*

For 120 years, microbiologists had strongly assumed that nitrification 
must be performed by two distinct groups of microorganisms 
(‘nitrifiers’) in cooperation: the ammonia oxidizers and the nitrite 
oxidizers, respectively. This scientific dogma broke in 2016, when 
‘complete ammonia oxidizers’ were discovered (1). In collaboration with 
the research lab of Daims/Wagner that discovered the Comammox bacterium, 
the Djinovic lab in Vienna plans to structurally and biochemically 
characterize selected enzymes of the Comammox, to decipher the catalytic 
mechanism and identify the structural determinants of the substrate 
affinity and specificity.


*Job Description*: Active participation in research, teaching and 
administration. This includes: + Involvement in a research project on 
the structural and biochemical characterization of selected enzymes from 
Comammox and other nitrifying microorganisms + Publications and 
presentations + Involvement in project applications for third-party 
funding + Involvement in public outreach + Teaching of courses as 
defined by the collective agreement + Supervision of trainees and students


*Qualifications and experience: *The applicants should hold a PhD degree 
in Biology, Molecular Biology, Structural Biology, Biochemistry, or 
relevant fields. Strong experience in molecular cloning, expression, and 
purification of protein complexes is essential. Prior knowledge of 
crystallography and/or single-particle electron microscopy is needed. In 
addition, we expect the successful candidate to have excellent 
communication and organizational skills, the capacity to interact with 
other researchers, experience in working on collaborative research 
projects, publications in international scientific journals, and 
international presentation experience. Excellent team-working ability is 
needed.

clearance of infections. Persisters are formed by phenotypic switching to an 
antibiotic-tolerant state, rendering a small subset of cells within an isogenic 
population capable of surviving antibiotic treatment. Within this ongoing 
research project we want to gain more insight into the mechanisms of 
persistence by unravelling the associated molecular pathways down to atomic 
resolution (e.g. Verstraeten et al. Mol. Cell 2015; Gkekas et al. J. Biol. 
Chem. 2017; Verstraeten et al. Mol. Microbiol. 2019). The project is part of an 
interdisciplinary Excellence of Science program in collaboration with the teams 
of Jan Michiels, Régis Hallez, Françoise Van Bambeke, Steven Ballet and Jörg 
Vogel. Within this consortium you will use single particle cryo-EM and X-ray 
crystallography, in combination with biophysical methods and enzyme kinetics, 
to gain insight in the role of important persistence proteins and their 
interactions. This information will subsequently be used to intervene with 
these proteins and processes to devise new potential therapeutic strategies.

[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral position at RCSB PDB San Diego

2022-07-01 Thread Jose Duarte
We are seeking a talented, highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join
the multidisciplinary team of the RCSB Protein Data Bank at UC San Diego,
San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC).

Fast and accurate search of protein structures by 3-dimensional shape in
large databases continues to be a challenge in Bioinformatics. This has
been exacerbated by the recent appearance of accurate methods to predict
protein structures from sequence. Those methods, when applied to existing
protein sequence databases, produce numbers of structures many orders of
magnitude larger than the existing experimental knowledge in the PDB
database. The incumbent will research novel methods to compare
macromolecular structures that are scalable to the deluge of structural
data and that work at any level: domains, chains or assemblies. The
ultimate aim of this project is to improve the findability of data in the
PDB by building the next generation search engine for structural molecular
biology.

Note, this position is reviewed annually on the basis of performance and
can be renewed.
Requirements

Qualifications: Ph.D. in one of the following research areas

   -

   Computer Science with a focus on Bioinformatics
   -

   Structural Bioinformatics, or related field with a focus on software
   development
   -

   Structural Biology with a focus on software development


Demonstrated proficiency in a high-level programming language, such as
Java, Python, C++, and experience with state of the art software
engineering tools. Strong skills in problem solving and algorithm design
are required. Experience in Machine Learning/Deep Learning is desirable. A
background in NoSQL database technologies would be beneficial. Experience
in development of modern web applications, user interface design, or
scientific visualization would also be a plus. We expect candidates to have
shown high productivity demonstrated by publications and contributions to
open source software projects. Excellent written and oral communication
skills are required.
