  POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP
Center for Aging and Developmental Biology,     University of Rochester 
School of Medicine, Rochester, NY.

A Postdoctoral position is available immediately to study the function of 
Btn1p in yeast.  Btn1p is the yeast homologue to the human Cln3p which when 
defective is responsible for the most common childhood neurological 
disorder, Batten disease.  We are studying Btn1p with the awesome power of 
yeast genetics, and have demonstrated that deletion of BTN1 (btn1-) is 
complemented by human CLN3 (Pearce et al., 1999 [Nat. Genet., 22, 
55-58]).  We are looking for a highly motivated individual with experience 
in yeast molecular biology to contribute to the research and understanding 
of this devastating disease.
