Postdoc position in Protein-RNA crystallography

A postdoc position is available in the group of crystallography headed by P.
Dumas in the laboratory "RNA Architecture and Reactivity" at IBMC,
Strasbourg (France). The position is for an HIV-related project that will
focus on the structure of a ternary complex between (1) a tRNA(Lys,3)
(diverted from the infected cell), (2) a fragment of the viral RNA and (3)
the viral retrotranscriptase (RT). The formation of this ternary complex is
a key step in the viral replication cycle since it occurs early and involves
a cellular partner (the tRNA(Lys,3)) that is independent of any viral
mutations. For that reason, it might be an excellent target for a new
antiviral drug.

The structural work will benefit strongly of a large body of previous
solution studies. In particular, a selenomethionine viral RT, the
tRNA(Lys,3), as well as viral RNA fragments of various lenght are routinely
produced in our lab. We are equipped with a crystallization robot and with
an X-ray facility for crystal testing. Our laboratory is located into a
thriving environment for all aspects of RNA research.

Qualification: The candidate should have a PhD with a background in RNA
biology. An experience in X-ray crystallography will be strongly
appreciated.
