Contrato postdoctoral en la Universidad del Estado de Michigan (USA)-Postdoctoral Position “Bacterial Intramembrane Protease Function and Structure”

A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Lee Kroos at Michigan State University in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.  A highly-motivated individual is sought to work on a challenging project in collaboration with the laboratory of Michael Garavito.  The goal is to understand intramembrane metalloprotease function and structure using Bacillus subtilis enzymes as models.  This type of enzyme plays important roles in diverse signaling pathways critical for human health. The successful applicant will have a PhD in biochemistry or a related field, with experience in genetic manipulation of bacteria and protein expression and purification, preferably of membrane proteins.  The position is for one year, with the possibility of renewal.  Qualified applicants should submit a cover letter describing their prior experience and future career goals, and a CV with contact information for three references to Lee Kroos (kroos@msu.edu).
