A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the laboratory of
Dr. Paul F. Fitzpatrick in the Department of Biochemistry at the UT
Health Science Center in San Antonio to apply NMR spectroscopy to
analyze the structure and dynamics of the aromatic amino acid
hydroxylases. This project is presently funded by the NIH and The Welch
Foundation. Applicants should have a PhD in Biochemistry or a related
field and experience with NMR spectroscopy of proteins. More
information regarding the laboratory can be found at
http://biochem.uthscsa.edu/faculty.php?displayID=56.
The Department of Biochemistry maintains
state-of-the-art core facilities for biomolecular NMR spectroscopy,
X-ray crystallography, Surface Plasmon Resonance, Analytical
Ultracentrifugation and Mass Spectrometry. The NMR facility has 500
MHz, 600 MHz and 700 MHz Bruker spectrometers. The 600 and 700 are
equipped with cryoprobes.
The city of San Antonio is a major tourist
attraction in the state of Texas with an animated downtown and a very
reasonable cost of living.
Interested candidates should send a CV and contact
