Specially Appointed Researcher/Postdoctoral Position in Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis and Pathogen Recognition Osaka University in Japan

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...

The Goulding Lab at the University of California, Irvine is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to study the molecular mechanisms of bacterial competition using cryo-electron microscopy. Working in collaboration with the Hayes Lab at the University of California, Santa Barbara, the project focuses on the structures and assembly of effector, immunity, and delivery complexes used by bacteria to attack neighboring cells, defend against attack, and invade host cells. The postdoctoral researcher will use ...
