Hi, we are still actively looking for postdoc(s). Candidates with structural biology background or passion for microtubule/cilia are preferred. Please retweet.
Please RT: One postdoctoral position is available in my lab (zhangrui.wustl.edu) @WUSTLmed to study the structures and functions of native macromolecular complexes related to #microtubule #cilia and @cytoskeleton from various species including #parasites and human.

Structural homology does not imply allosteric homology. Our latest paper shows how two structurally conserved transcription factors respond differently to the same allosteric effector. Important functional consequences, intriguing underlying biophysics. jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(2…

#Remdesivir does NOT block #coronavirus polymerase. It imparis RNA translocation and causes an elongation barrier that is overcome at high substrate concentrations. Our paper presenting the mechanism of remdesivir action is now online: nature.com/articles/s41467-0… #SARSCoV2 #COVID19
