Moffitt Cancer center（フロリダ州タンパ）の古倉と申します。私が所属するラボでポスドクを募集しております。立ち上げから1年半ほどの新しいラボです。研究内容としましては、新規のメチル化ヒストン結合蛋白質を主に研究しており、ガン化との関連や生理的機能を解析しているところです。また他に、ヒストンメチル化に関わる酵素とガン化との関連を生化学的・分子生物学的に解析しています。バックグランドとしては、細胞培養とタンパク質の扱いに慣れた方が望ましいかと思います。ラボは共通の機器もあり、アメリカのラボにしてはかなり充実しているのではないかと思います。詳しい内容は英文を参照してください。ご興味のある方は、Dr. Fangに直接メールしていただくか、日本語ご希望であれば私宛にメール（kokurakenn@gmail.com）していただいてもかまいません。

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW
POSITION DESCRIPTION
A Postdoctoral position is available to study epigenetic regulation in the laboratory of Dr. Jia Fang at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute. The research will focus on the molecular mechanisms of various post-translational modifications on histone tails by using different approaches. The emphasis will be on characterization of novel histone modifying enzymes, histone modification reorganization and binding proteins, and their roles in diverse biological processes including cancer. The projects are based on published data (Current Biology 2002, 12:1086; Science 2003, 300:131; Nature 2006, 439:811; Science 2006, 312:748-751; Nature Cell Biology 2006, 8:188; Molecular Cell 2007, 25:801) and well-established protein purification techniques (Method in Enzymology 2004, 377:213). Qualified candidates should have a Ph.D. and be highly motivated and well trained in transcription, epigenetic or chromatin regulation. Experience with standard molecular biology tec! hniq!
ues and protein purification is highly desirable. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are required. To apply, please send the curriculum vitae, a letter of interest, and the names and contact information of 3 references to Dr. Jia Fang via email at . For questions, you can also contact Dr. Kenji Kokura in the lab at
