PhD Studentship: The Role of O-glycosylation of the Stalk Region of the Immunoglobulin Receptor GPVI University of Birmingham in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in cancer biology , proteasome assembly , protein degradation , and drug discovery . This EASTBIO-funded project, hosted in the Rousseau laboratory at the University of Dundee and involving the Dundee Drug Discovery Unit , asks whether blocking proteasome assembly can reveal new vulnerabilities in cancer cells. The project uses a newly developed 26S-splitNanoLuc reporter to monitor proteasome assembly in living cells and identify small molecules that i...
