Candidates with a degree in other disciplines can also apply if they have a strong aptitude for experimental Protein Biochemistry and Protein Spectroscopy. Prior research experience in working with proteins is desirable

Job Title:    Junior Research Fellow

No. of Posts:  01

Project Title: Spectroscopic studies of membrane protein folding and function

Age Limit: Applicant should not have completed 25 years of age at the time of joining.

Salary::  Rs. 12,000/- p.m. (consolidated).

Job Description:

Generation of mutant library using conventional site-directed mutagenesis, membrane protein expression, protein purification, membrane protein folding and unfolding measurements using tryptophan fluorescence, data analysis. Other research-related work can be assigned from time to time.

Qualifications: 

• First class M. Sc./ M. Tech./ B. Tech. degree from a recognized university or institute in one of the following disciplines:
  Biophysics
  Biochemistry

  experimental Protein Biochemistry and Protein Spectroscopy. Prior research experience
  in working with proteins is desirable.

Description of research in the laboratory: We are working towards discovering the link between membrane protein folding, protein stability and function. We combine ultrafast kinetics and equilibrium spectroscopic measurements with electrophysiology measurements and cell survival assays to

obtain a complete understanding of membrane protein regulation. For further details, please visit our laboratory website or click here.
