Offer Description

We are searching a postdoctoral researcher who works with us on the ANR project entitled “AROSE – Assessing the functions of histone ADP-ribosylation during DNA repair”.

The aim of the project is to study the effect of histone ADP-ribosylation on chromatin organization by in vitro approaches using reconstituted chromatin. The recruited person will purify the proteins required for in vitro chromatin assembly and histone ADP-ribosylation. Analyses are mainly carried out using fluorescence microscopy and transmission electron microscopy methods on reconstituted chromatin.

The “Mechanism of chromatin patterning” team is an international, interdisciplinary team belonging to the MCD unit within the Center for Integrative Biology (CBI) in Toulouse, which benefits from all the technical resources, equipment and technical core facilities required to carry out the project.
