PhD opportunity at the University of St Andrews in the School of Biology / School of Chemistry, working on design, synthesis, and mechanism of action of inhibitors of the human enzyme DNPH1 (2′-deoxynucleoside 5′-phosphate N-hydrolase 1). This project sits at the interface of Biochemistry , Structural Biology , Medicinal Chemistry , Organic Synthesis , and Chemical Biology . DNPH1 is a nucleotide-sanitizing enzyme, and the project aims to design potent and selective inhibitors and elucidate how ...

PhD opportunity at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology, with Dr Ivana Bukvin in the area of protein folding, ribosome biology, structural biology, biochemistry, and single-molecule fluorescence. This project focuses on how proteins fold on the ribosome in real time. The successful student will study co-translational folding as a nascent polypeptide emerges from the ribosome exit tunnel, using single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) to capt...
