A postdoctoral position is available in the Huberman Laboratory,
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY
(USA), to study the mechanism(s) that distinguish early-firing from
late-firing DNA replication origins in eukaryotic organisms. Sequences
determining late firing have been localized to a stretch of 94-bp for a
replication origin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sharma, Weinberger and
Huberman, manuscript in preparation). The goals of this project are (i) to
further localize the late-firing-determining sequences, (ii) to identify
proteins interacting with these sequences, and (iii) to elucidate the
mechanism by which these proteins impose late firing.
Further information about the Huberman laboratory can be obtained
from its Web site: http://mcbio.med.buffalo.edu/CMB/huberman/jh.html
Salary will be according to experience at the standard NIH
postdoctoral scale.
The position is available immediately. Applications arriving after
December 20, 1999, will not be considered. Interested candidates with a
strong background in molecular biology (and preferably also with experience
in yeast genetics) should send (preferably by e-mail) a cover letter, CV,
and contact information (e-mail address and phone #) for three references
