Postdoctoral Scholar - Goulding Lab University of California, Irvine in United States

Funded PhD opportunity in viral DNA mimic proteins at the University of Bristol. Professor Mark Dillingham is seeking an enthusiastic PhD student to investigate how bacterial viruses (phages) produce proteins that masquerade as DNA and sabotage molecular machinery in bacterial hosts. The project will focus on discovering new DNA mimic proteins and understanding their mechanisms, including viral targeting of the bacterial DNA-processing enzyme RecBCD. Research will combine computational structura...

Montana State University is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Microbiology & Cell Biology in Bozeman, Montana, United States. The Wiedenheft Lab is seeking a highly motivated postdoc to study the structural mechanisms of bacterial immune systems that defend bacteria against viral (phage) infection. The project focuses on CRISPR-Cas complexes , Defense-associated Reverse Transcriptases (DRTs) , Retrons , and other newly discovered anti-phage defense systems. The position e...

Washington University in St. Louis (WashU Medicine) is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics for the Ghanbarpour Laboratory on the Washington University Medical Campus in St. Louis, Missouri, United States. The lab studies how bacteria and human mitochondria maintain homeostasis and respond to stress, with a strong emphasis on ATP-dependent AAA proteolytic machines , membrane biology, bacterial recovery from antibiotic stress, and pathogen/phage de...

The Fang Li Lab at the University of Minnesota is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to study virus entry and antiviral therapeutic development using structural biology. Applicants must have strong experience in protein expression and purification . Experience with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is preferred but not required. The post does not provide funding or deadline details. To apply, contact the lab at [email protected] . Further information about the lab and its structural biology re...

The Debler Laboratory at Thomas Jefferson University is recruiting a postdoctoral scientist for a project at the intersection of biochemistry and structural biology. The position focuses on understanding the mechanism of macromolecular machines and assemblies using high-end structural approaches, with particular emphasis on x-ray crystallography and/or cryo-electron microscopy. The lab is described as well funded by NIH, strongly equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation, and embedded in a ...
