美国德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校RNA生物学博士后职位

Postdoc in Eukaryotic Ribosome Assembly

I am anticipating two post-doc positions in my lab beginning in spring 2014. We use a combination of molecular genetics, cell biology and biochemical techniques to study nuclear assembly and cytoplasmic maturation of eukaryotic ribosomes. Projects include: understanding the dissociation of U3 snoRNA and the SSU processome from the pre-40S subunit in the nucleus and the mechanisms of quality control that test newly assembled 60S subunits in the cytoplasm. I am looking for a highly motivated person with strong experimental training in molecular or cell biology with a strong publication record. Strong prior experience in protein purification and biochemistry or in vivo and in vitro RNA work are essential. Interested candidates should email a cover letter, CV, and contact information for three references to Dr Arlen Johnson at arlen@austin.utexas.edu.
