y****z 发帖数: 92 | 1 A Chemical Biology postdoctoral fellow position is available in Dr. Yana Cen
’s lab in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at Virginia Commonwealth
University (VCU)-MCV Campus. Our research aims to understand the roles of
mammalian enzymes play in physiological and pathological processes and to
use this knowledge to identify novel therapeutic targets for the treatment
of human diseases. In particular, we are interested in a class of epigenetic
modification enzymes called sirtuins, which are involved in protein post-
translational modification and have important biological functions. We take
a highly integrative chemical biology approach to study the enzymology,
identify the modified protein targets, and study the biological significance
of the modification. We also develop small molecule regulators targeting
these enzymes as therapeutics for age-related diseases and cancer.
The ideal candidate should have a PhD in Biochemistry, Molecular and
Cellular Biology, Chemical Biology or a related discipline, and have
experience with genetically engineering bacteria, protein purification,
enzymatic assays as well as cell biology techniques. Additional knowledge of
the following techniques is highly desirable: isothermal titration
calorimetry (ITC), Mass Spectrometry and/or X-ray crystallography. The
successful applicant will have a strong scientific record, excellent
communication skills, ability to work independently and as part of team, and
willingness to help mentor junior scientists.
VCU offers a competitive salary commensurate with qualifications and
experience. The initial appointment will be for a one-year period, with the
possibility of an extension depending on performance and availability of
funding. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until
the position is filled. Interested applicants should email cover letter
describing research experience and interests, CV with publication list, and
contact information of three references to:
