Postdoctoral position in structural biology of protein complexes in nerve development and diseasePosted by: Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, SwedenPosted date: Apr-08-2009
Location: Stockholm, Sweden
A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the Molecular Structural Biology group at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm (http://phillips.mbb.ki.se/). The position is initially available for 1 year with the possibility of extension to three years.
We are seeking a motivated scientist to join a new research project on structural and functional studies of protein-protein complexes involved in nerve cell development and disease. The project focuses on the characterization of the complexes and their function in the cell. The experiments will involve a broad range of techniques, such as protein expression/purification, site-directed mutagenesis, enzyme kinetics, and various methods of structure determination (X-ray crystallography, EM, SAXS). Applicants should have a background in biochemistry or molecular biology, and possess experience with cloning, protein expression/purification techniques. Biochemists and molecular biologists who would like to learn structural biology are encouraged to apply. Experience in mammalian cell culturing is a plus.
