A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the laboratory of
Peter Prevelige, Dept. of Microbiology, Univ. of Alabama at Birmingham to
study protein/protein interactions during viral capsid assembly. The
overall objective of the project is to develop a computer simulation of
the process of capsid assembly based on experimentally obtained data. The
experimental component of the project includes direct measurment of key
protein/protein interactions using state of the art techniques including:
surface plasmon resonance, calorimetry, small angle X-ray scattering and
analytical ultracentrifugation.
Candidates should have experience or interest in protein biochemistry and
the kinetic and thermodynamic analysis of protein/protein interactions.
