Postdoctoral Position
Retroviral RNA Processing
Johns Hopkins University
Position available immediately. Ongoing projects include control of
RNA splicing, polyadenylation, stability, and transport. The lab
studies both Rous sarcoma virus and HIV RNA processing. See Genes &
Dev. 7:1926, 1993, "Mutation of an RSV intronic element abolishes both
U11/U12 snRNP binding and negative regulation of splicing"; and MCB
14:1986, 1994, "Rous sarcoma virus RNA stablity requires an open
reading frame in the gag gene and sequences downstream of the gag-pol
junction" for recent work from the lab). Molecular biology experience
required.
