Job Description

JRF Biotechnology/Life Sciences/Field Assistant Position Job Oppertunity At Sastra University

JRF Biotechnology / Life Sciences

Name of the Project: Functional genomics approach to identify small molecule modulator of miR-15 and miR-16 in  chronic lymphoid leukemia

Essential Qualification: First Class in M.Sc (Biotechnology) / M.Sc (Life Sciences)/ M.Sc Organic Chemistry.

Desirable ( but not necessary): Candidates having previous experience in techniques such as Cell-culture, Western blotting, Agarose gel electrophoresis, RT-PCR, MTT assay, Flow-cytometry, chromatin epigenetics (OR) Candidates with lot of interest in the field of organic synthesis and their application for therapeutic utility against cancer are encouraged to apply.

Duration of the Project: 3 Years (2018-2021)

Fellowship: Rs. 14,000 / month  for three years

Project Description: MiR-15 and miR-16 are tumor suppressor small RNA molecules and can inhibit cancer cell proliferation by binding to 3’-UTR of Bcl-2. These molecules function like p53. The project aims at synthesis of small molecules and their  miR modulatory role in CLL.


JRF Bioinformatics - Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Project Title: Investigating the effect of Osmolytes on the Interplay of Dynamics of Water, protein and DNA: Implications for Modulating Protein-DNA Specificity

Essential qualification: First class in M. Sc. or M. Tech. (Biophysics, Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, Physics, or related fields)

Fellowship: As per rules and regulations

Project Description: Specificity in the binding of proteins to DNA is important for the tight regulation of various cellular processes including replication, transcription etc. Loss of protein-DNA specificity has adverse ramifications including uncontrolled cell proliferation (cancer) etc. Osmolytes are commonly known to be expressed under stress conditions. This project aims to delineate the effect of osmolytes on protein-DNA specificity using computational methods (molecular dynamics simulations).
