Positions in yeast labs

Postdoctoral Position to study Ty1 retrotransposition at the University of Georgia

A postdoctoral position is available in the lab of David J. Garfinkel, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Georgia, Athens GA to work on the retrovirus-like transposon Ty1 of Saccharomyces. Specifically, we are investigating a new form of RNA-interference based on Ty1 antisense RNAs that acts posttranslationally and targets Ty1 proteins in the absence of the conserved RNAi pathways.

Experience in molecular genetics, protein/nucleic acid interactions or cytology would be helpful.
