Dear CCP4bb and CCPEM members, Up to two Research Associate positions in cellular structural biology of transcription factors are available immediately in the Berger lab, University of Bristol UK, funded by the Wellcome Trust.
As part of a dynamic interdisciplinary team, the Research Associates will perform international leading basic research with the objective of unlocking the structure, function and cellular assembly of key eukaryotic transcription factor complexes, applying and integrating recombinant multiprotein expression tools, structural biology (X-ray, EM), biophysics, proteomics, cell biology and biochemistry techniques. Experience with recombinant expression of multiprotein complexes, structural biology methods (X-ray, EM) and cell biology techniques are highly desirable.Experience with complex multicomponent human transcription factors is a plus. Applicants should hold, or expect to hold shortly, a PhD in biochemistry, molecular biology, structural biology (X-ray, EM) or a related subject. The Research Associates will benefit from the cutting-edge Bristol Biosuite for structural biology and the Synthetic Biology centre (BrisSynbio, www.bristol.ac.uk/brissynbio/) and synergize with our internationally leading academic collaborators (Laszlo Tora, IGBMC; Patrick Schultz, IGBMC; Marc Timmers, Utrecht; Christiane Schaffitzel, Bristol; and Juri Rappsilber, Berlin).
