POST-DOC VACANCY IN GLYCOPROTEIN GLYCAN ANALYSIS FOR TWO YEARS
BIJVOET CENTER FOR BIOMOLECULAR RESEARCH
DEPARTMENT OF BIO-ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
UTRECHT UNIVERSITY
THE NETHERLANDS
The research program of the Carbohydrate Section of the Department of
Bio-Organic Chemistry, Bijvoet Center for Biomolecular Research at Utrecht
University, The Netherlands (Prof.dr J.F.G. Vliegenthart and Prof.dr J.P.
Kamerling), is focused on the primary / three-dimensional structure
analysis of glycoprotein glycans and polysaccharides, (bio)synthesis of
oligosaccharide sequences, and interaction studies between carbohydrates
and proteins.
We like to announce the following vacancy, which is immediately available:
A Post-doc position (two years) for a project entitled "Glycosylation
patterns on heterologous proteins produced in the mammary gland of
transgenic animals". The project is financially supported by the Technology
Foundation STW, applied science division of NWO, and the technology program
of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In the aimed glycan structural
analyses of transgenic glycoproteins a multiple of approaches will be
followed, e.g. chemical and enzymatic cleavage procedures for glycoprotein
glycans, carbohydrate-specific chemical derivatisation protocols,
chromatographic techniques, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
Specific attention will be paid to the development of fast screening
procedures for transgenic glycoprotein derived glycan ensembles. The whole
program will be carried out in collaboration with Pharming Technologies BV,
Leiden, The Netherlands.
The salary of the qualified person will be according to Dutch regulations.
If you are interested and have the right academic qualification, please
send your letter and a CV to
Prof.dr J.P. Kamerling, Bijvoet Center, Department of Bio-Organic
Chemistry, Utrecht University, P.O. Box 80.075, 3508 TB Utrecht, The
