PhD-student position in Structural Biology (cryo-EM) aiming to investigate disease-related protein complexes involved in cell signaling
Highly motivated candidates interested in structural studies of disease-related signaling complexes (MAPK and mTOR) are invited to apply for a fully funded PhD position in the laboratory of Dr. Read more
MSc by Research: Protein expression and purification from plants to facilitate structural biology in plant-pest interactions
Pests and diseases are a major threat to food security with losses ranging between 20-40%. Aphids are one of the most devastating insect pests, globally. Read more
PhD Studies with PACE – Protein and Cell Engineering Laboratory
PhD Studies with PACE – Protein and Cell Engineering Laboratory. “Tailored stem cell models to study and eventually cure degenerative diseases will be unlocked with engineered and enhanced biomolecules.”. Read more
Polymer-engineering nanocages for protein delivery
Protein therapeutics are a fast-acting and potent class of medicine with remarkable success in the treatment of several relevant disorders. Read more
From structure and dynamics to controlled gel formation of sustainable food proteins from plant seeds
Research Project. The PhD will be enrolled at the Division of Physical Chemistry at Lund University due to a change of affiliation of the supervisor Felix Roosen-Runge. Read more
Investigating the Roles for deSUMOylation Enzyme SENP3 in Autophagy Impaired by α-synuclein
Aggregation of α-synuclein protein in neuronal cells has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders (Synucleinopathies) including Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Read more
Identification and characterisation of bacteriocins from environmental samples active against strains of Clostridium difficile.
Clostridiodes difficile is a cause of neonatal enteritis in livestock such as pigs, cattle and horses. Affected animals develop respiratory problems, abdominal distention and bloody diarrhoea leading to weight loss and in extreme cases mortality. Read more
Unlocking immune cells with tick-borne pathogens
In this project we will use tick-borne pathogenic bacteria as a molecular tool-kit for unlocking immune cells. These discoveries will help us combat tick-borne disease and provide a basis for manipulating immune cells, impacting on a wide range of diseases. Read more
Investigating the interaction of La related proteins with colliding ribosomes
Translation of mRNA into proteins is a critical cellular biological process for all life. This requires ribosomes to act with an array of translation factors to decode mRNA sequences. Read more
How does SUMOylation regulate cell survival and death in Heat Shock Response?
Heat shock response (HSR) is a universally existing essential phenomenon for all living organisms to survive sudden increases in environmental temperature that have pronounced damaging effects on important cellular structures and functions (1). Read more
Cryo-EM Structure and Function of Membrane Proteins Involved in Human Diseases
While membrane proteins only make up around 20% of the proteome, they constitute around 60% of drug targets. However, high resolution structural information is severely lacking for them, with only about 2% of the structures deposited in the public protein database (PDB) being annotated as membrane proteins. Read more
Structures of the human replisome
Accurate genome duplication is essential for all forms of life. The molecular machinery that orchestrates this process is collectively termed the replisome. Read more
PhD Position: Integrated Small-Scale Manufacturing of mRNA therapeutics
Project. Join us in the groundbreaking field of RNA nanomedicines! We are thrilled to announce an exceptional fully funded PhD position with a prestigious scholarship focused on the development of integrated microfluidic chips for the production of mRNA nanomedicines. Read more
White Rose BBSRC DTP: Structural mechanism of multi-faceted roles of FANCJ in cellular DNA repair, replication, and transcription
We study the DNA damage response of DNA-double strand breaks (DSB) and interstrand crosslinks (ICLs), the most toxic type of DNA damage in cells. Read more
Shining a (blue) light on Campylobacter: Exploiting an innate vulnerability to photodynamic killing
Project Overview. Campylobacter jejuni is a microaerophilic Gram-negative pathogen that causes human campylobacteriosis, one of the most widespread zoonotic enteric diseases worldwide. Read more
