A two-year postdoctoral position is available in the NMR group headed by Prof. G. Bodenhausen in "Laboratoire des Biomolécules" in Paris (France), under the supervision of Prof. O. Lequin.
The selected candidate will be involved in a project which aims at analyzing structure-function relationships of homeoproteins. Homeoproteins form a large class of transcription factors characterized by a conserved DNA binding domain called homeodomain. These proteins possess the striking property to be internalized within cells by direct membrane translocation processes which are not yet well understood. Homeoproteins are thus involved in original modes of cell signalling. The work of the selected candidate will mainly focus on studying the structure and interactions of homeodomains in aqueous environments, in membrane environments and in cellular environments. This project is funded by the French Agence Nationale pour la Recherche (ANR grant "PARAHP") and will be carried out in collaboration with biochemists and cell biologists (groups of A. Joliot, A. Prochiantz, L. Venance, CNRS-INSERM-Collège de France).
The candidate should have a strong expertise in NMR spectroscopy and be motivated in developing multidisciplinary research fields including liquid state NMR, solid state NMR of protein/lipid complexes, in cell NMR, and biochemistry (protein expression, membrane models, cell culture).

An opening exists at the University of Georgia for a postdoctoral associate to work on structural characterization of proteins using advanced NMR techniques. Primary responsibilities reside with our role in the Northeast Structural Genomics Consortium (NESG). These responsibilities involve structure improvement and validation of structures using RDC and RCSA data, as well as the production of a number of biologically relevant protein structures. Our lab also has strong programs in the glycobiology and vesicle trafficking areas, and we anticipate opportunities to be involved...

Structural studies of Vpx, the accessory protein of the HIV-2
We are looking for a candidate to apply for a 2 years postdoctoral position in
the Laboratory of Biological NMR and Crystallography at the University Paris
Descartes. The project will aim to determine the structure of the Vpx protein
(112 amino acids) and of its complexes with inhibitors identified after
screening of small compound libraries, using high-field multidimensional NMR
and Molecular Modeling. HIV-2 is the second leading cause of AIDS in humans and

Research project : Caracterisation of interface and diffusion in "host-guest" systems by 129Xe-NMR and by pulsed field gradients NMR
Novel systems for guidance and vectorization of functional molecules have been under extensive development during the last decades and have lead in particular to imagine systems of encapsulation, such as MCM silicas. The main objective of this project is to obtain, by NMR, information on the...
