Position open immediately for a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to investigate the function and structure of an intrinsic membrane protein from pathogenic bacteria involved in capsule polysaccharide export. The researcher will develop an expression system to purify sufficient protein for crystallization and solid-state NMR experiments, as well as investigate function at the cellular level. See our recent paper (http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/bi101869h) that describes another protein from the same operon. A doctoral degree in biochemistry, microbiology, or related field is required, preferably with experience in membrane proteins. Please email CV, a short description of your research accomplishments and career plans, and names of three references to Prof. Mark A. Saper, [log in to unmask].
