POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION
Molecular Analysis of Photosynthetic Complexes
An NSF-supported postdoctoral position is available immediately to
study basic protein structure-function relationships of the photosystem II
reaction center complex using the experimental model Synechocystis 6803.
The work combines state-of-the-art molecular genetic, biochemical, and
biophysical approaches to clarify the activity and light-dependent
assembly of the catalytic tetramer of manganese atoms that forms the core
of the H2O-splitting enzyme.
A Ph.D. and a strong background in protein biochemistry and/or
molecular biology is required. Preferences will be given to individuals
with proven records of quality publications and to those with potentials
to obtain independent funding.
Please send CV along with the names, addresses, and telephone numbers
