Postdoctoral position - University of Minnesota
A postdoctoral position will be open in January 2010 to conduct crystallographic studies of protein-DNA complexes. Our laboratory studies structure and function of various DNA-processing enzymes primarily using x-ray crystallography. Current research projects include retroviral integrases, tyrosine family of site-specific recombinases, and Holliday-junction resolvases. Successful candidate should have research experience (and Ph.D.) in biochemistry, biophysics, or similar disciplines. Prior experience with x-ray crystallography or other structural biology techniques is preferred. The University of Minnesota at Twin Cities offers superb research environment with state of the art x-ray diffraction and robotic crystallization facilities.
