June 2007
Ph.D Student or Postdoctoral Position at the
Dept. of Structural Biology
Weizmann Institute of Science,
Rehovot 76100 ISRAEL
"A multidisciplinary approach to studying structure-function
relationships in acetylcholinesterase and paraoxonase"
The student will work with molecular biologists, biochemists and
protein crystallographers on directed evolution of
acetylcholinesterase and paraoxonase and in functional and structural
characterization of the evolved products, with the objective of
developing catalytic scavengers for nerve agents. The candidate should
have a strong background in molecular biology, protein chemistry and
enzymology. The project will be carried out in collaboration with
Professor Dan Tawfik in the Department of Biological Chemistry,
Weizmann Institute of Science.
