Postdoctoral Position
Laboratory of Genetics
University of Wisconsin-Madison
A postdoctoral position is available starting immediately to study
the role of ARG1 and ARG1-like proteins in the transduction of gravitropic
signals in Arabidopsis thaliana. For more information on the research area see:
Sedbrook, Chen and Masson (1999) ARG1 (Altered Response to Gravity)
encodes a DnaJ-like protein that potentially interacts with the
cytoskeleton. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 96: 1140-1145

Plant Physiol. 120: 343-350
This project is part of a broader research program aimed at characterizing
the molecular mechanisms by which Arabidopsis thaliana roots utilize
mechanical information in their environment to control the pattern
of their growth. General information on the overall program, including
a list of recent publications, can be found at:
