FACULTY OF LIFE SCIENCES

Postdoctoral Research Associate - Structural Biology of Membrane Proteins

Salary £25,633 (RA1A) per annum

We are seeking a protein biochemist/structural biologist to work on membrane
protein components of the torque-generating system of bacterial flagellar
motor. Funded by the Wellcome Trust, this post is available from December 2006
and is tenable for up to 3 years.

This work will include expression and purification of individual membrane
proteins and domains with subsequent characterization using CD, SPR, ITC, AUC,
X-ray and electron crystallography and small angle scattering with the ultimate
goal of understanding the molecular basis of the stator complex function.
Experience with gene cloning, membrane protein expression and purification is
required. Familiarity with membrane protein crystallization and reconstitution
into lipid bilayers will be advantageous. This position will provide an
excellent opportunity for a researcher with a PhD in a biological science to
advance their knowledge and practical skills in biochemistry, biophysics and
structural biology.

Informal enquiries can be addressed to Dr. Anna Roujeinikova,
