POSTDOCTORAL / SENIOR RESEARCH POSITION AVAILABLE
Division of Molecular Biology & Biochemistry
University of Missouri-Kansas City
Positions are available for postdoctoral scientists with experience/interests in protein engineering, molecular biology, biochemical, biophysical, and collaborative structural work on recombinant enzymes of lipid metabolism.
The Miziorko lab group investigates enzymes involved in hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) metabolism as well as other enzymes in the pathway of polyisoprenoid and sterol biosynthesis. Recent work on avian HMG-CoA synthase has documented active site residues involved in reaction chemistry. Collaborative work employing the prokaryotic enzyme has led to the structure of the acetyl-enzyme reaction intermediate. Work on recombinant rat and human mevalonate kinase includes the functional assignment of active site residues as well as collaborative pursuit of the structure of an enzyme-Mg-ATP complex. Our lab has developed recombinant forms of human HMG-CoA lyase, phosphomevalonate kinase, and mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase, facilitating investigation of these enzymes. A variety of mechanistic tools (spectroscopically detectable substrate analogs, inhibitors, etc.) in our lab expedites investigation of these proteins.
Positions are supported by extramural funds, the Marion-Merrell-Dow endowment, and other sources. Appointments include a generous fringe benefit package. More experienced candidates may qualify for non-tenure track junior faculty appointments. Salary will be determined by the candidate's relevant experience and productivity. The laboratory is located in an attractive urban university campus, adjacent to pleasant residential areas as well as many of Kansas City's venues for cultural and social activities. Additional information is available on the lab web site, http://sbs.umkc.edu/miziorko/
CANDIDATES AVAILABLE TO INTERVIEW AND VISIT THE LABORATORY IN KANSAS CITY WILL RECEIVE PRIORITY IN APPLICANT SCREENING.
INTERESTED CANDIDATES SHOULD FORWARD A CV AND CONTACTS FOR 3 PROFESSIONAL REFERENCES TO:
Dr. Henry Miziorko
Marion-Merrell-Dow Professor

Hi All,
This is garima sharma again. I would like to get
information about a journal named International
Biodeterioration and biodegradation. Pls let me where
this journal is available and how can i get access to
this journal as i've many ref from this journal.My
institute has access to issue after 1994 only. If
anyone can let me from where i can get ref of the year
before 1993,
Regards n wishes,
garima
