Postdoctoral research position to study the molecular and structural basis for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) maintenance
| Biochemistry | |
The Brown lab focuses on using structural biology to understand how defects in macromolecular protein assembly underlie mitochondrial diseases. Specifically, we are recruiting for a postdoc to study protein assembly interactions governing maintenance of mitochondrial DNA copy number through adequate dNTP production. In addition to structural biology, the laboratory also employs a wide range of biochemical and biophysical techniques to discern molecular mechanisms, including mass spectrometry, enzyme assays, and various binding assays. Successful applicants will have a foundation in structural biology (X-ray crystallography, NMR, cryo-EM) with further opportunities for cell biology, proteomics, and metabolomics. |
