Postdoctoral Research Assistant

We are looking for an exceptional individual to join the Sapkota Lab as a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on an innovative project aimed at targeting Wnt signalling in cancer. Hyperactive Wnt signalling is associated with colorectal and other cancers. We have discovered that the poorly charcaterised proteins FAM83F and FAM83G activate Wnt signalling through...

We are recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to take up a position within the Swamy group in the University of Dundee, to study potential new therapeutic targets for treating Coeliac disease. This is a fixed-term appointment for 3 years starting August/September 2024.This is an exciting opportunity to be at the interface of clinical and basic research, and to...

We are recruiting a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join the laboratory of Dr Kirby Swatek. The goal of the Swatek lab is to understand the immunoregulatory roles of a ubiquitin-like modifier called Interferon-Stimulated Gene 15 (ISG15). As its name suggests, ISG15 is highly upregulated in interferon-treated and virus-infected cells and labels...

Chemical Biology - Discovery Probes for Ubiquitin-like E3 LigasesModification of proteins with ubiquitin-like proteins (Ubls) is a critical cellular process linked to pathogen resistance, cancer, and selective organelle degradation. Central to their conjugation to substrates are E3 ligase enzymes (E3s), yet for many Ubls the E3s are poorly understood or...

Modification of proteins with ubiquitin-like proteins (Ubls) is a critical cellular process linked to pathogen resistance, cancer, and selective organelle degradation. Central to their conjugation to substrates are E3 ligase enzymes (E3s), yet for many Ubls the E3s are poorly understood or remain completely unknown. The Virdee lab has pioneered the...

Enthusiastic candidates should ideally have recently carried out a PhD in biochemistry or a chemistry related area. The position will be a fantastic opportunity for candidates to broaden their skillset by working in a multidisciplinary lab using state-of-the-art technologies. Coupled with this exciting area of biological focus, the project will provide an...

Organelle-selective autophagy is emerging as a critical and highly coordinated cellular process, and its dysfunction is linked to cancer and neurological diseases. Crucially, organelle-selective autophagy requires the timely ubiquitination of substrates, yet the E3 ligases involved and how their activity is regulated are poorly understood. Our lab has...
