PhD Studentship: Development of New Antibacterial Compounds Targeting Microbial Resistance University of East Anglia in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in molecular characterisation of the protein S-acylation machinery at Coventry University within the Centre for Discoveries in Life Sciences and the Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership (MIBTP) . This funded PhD project investigates protein S-acylation (palmitoylation) , a reversible post-translational modification that regulates protein localisation, stability, trafficking, and activity. The project aims to define the molecular interactions between the S-acylati...

Funded PhD project in telomere biology , cancer biology , peptide design , protein biochemistry , molecular biology , cell biology , and synthetic/pharmaceutical chemistry at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences and Imperial College London in London, United Kingdom . The project asks how cells replicate chromosome ends while preserving telomere protection. You will study the shelterin complex, TRF2 interactions, and the origin recognition complex (ORC), with a focus on how disrupting these int...

University of Bath is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in an interdisciplinary project focused on mammalian cell biology , molecular biology , chemical biology , and peptide screening . The work will develop innovative intracellular peptide screening technologies to investigate and modulate transcription factor function in living mammalian cells. The post is hosted in Professor Jody Mason's research group at the University of Bath and is funded through a new BBSRC Pioneer Award . The...

Funded PhD project at The Francis Crick Institute in London, United Kingdom, with Dr Frank Uhlmann and the Chromosome Segregation Laboratory. The project, Chromosome Organisation by Dynamic Cohesin Complexes , focuses on chromosome organisation , cohesin , chromatin loops , topologically associating domains , and the broader mechanisms of genome organisation and chromosome segregation . The lab studies how Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) complexes support sister chromatid cohesion, ch...
