Candidates will participate in the NIH-funded program studying biochemistry and cell biology of the multienzyme metabolic assembly for glucosome metabolism, namely the “glucosome.” Candidates have also an opportunity to participate ion a research project that is associated with the “purinosome,” another multienzyme metabolic assembly regulating purine biosynthesis in human cells. Candidates are expected to have a strong background in biochemistry and/or molecular and cell biology. Prior experience with fluorescence microscopy, immunoprecipitation and/or western blots is desirable but not required. Candidates should also have ability to conduct research, prepare manuscripts and presentations independently, and ability and willingness to work with graduate and undergraduate students in the laboratory.
Interested applicants should send a short cover letter describing their research interests and motivation for joining the lab, CV, and contact information of three referees to Dr. An (san@umbc.edu). Review of application materials continues until the position is filled.
