*Structural Biologist Position at*
*at Brown University, USA*
The Deaconescu Lab at Brown University has one opening for a structural
biologist. The laboratory's interests lie primarily in stress responses,
with particular emphasis on responses to DNA damage and the
mechanochemistry of DNA-based motors. We utilize a combination of
biochemical, biophysical and structural techniques. (e.g. X-ray
crystallography, small-angle X-ray scattering, transmission electron
microscopy). For examples of work, please see Vemu et al. /Science
/(2018), Le TT et al. /Cell/ (2018), Deaconescu et al. /Photochemistry
and Photobiology /(2017), Kutter et al. /JMB/ (2016), Szyk et al, /Cell/
(2014), Deaconescu et al., /PNAS/ (2012), Szyk et al., /NSMB/ (2012) and
Deaconescu et al., /TIBS/ (2013).
A successful candidate should have _an established track-record of
publications in peer-reviewed journals_. Solid experience with protein
biochemistry (including their purification from E.coli/yeast expression,
functional characterization and assay development) is desirable*.
P**_rior knowledge of crystallography and/or single-particle electron
microscopy is essential_*. Crystals/data at various stages of the
structure determination process are available for immediate work.
Responsibilities include crystal freezing, data collection and
processing, obtaining and interpreting maps (X-ray or cryo-EM), model
building, refinement and deposition of structures. Additionally the
candidate will participate in the teaching and training of other lab
members. Overall responsibilities and compensation will depend on
qualification and performance.
Must be highly motivated and work independently as well as in a team.
Excellent spoken and written English are required. New Ph.D. graduates
are encouraged to apply.
*Interested candidates should send a CV, one page research experience
summary and contact information for three references to
