Cell signalling: structure, function and drug design

THESIS TOPIC PROPOSAL

Institute: Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest
biology
Doctoral School of Biology

Thesis supervisor: Attila Reményi
Location of studies (in Hungarian): Institute of Enzymology, Research Center for Natural Sciences, Hungarian Academy of Sciences
Abbreviation of location of studies: MTA


Description of the research topic:

Cells respond to a myriad of environmental cues and turn these into intracellular information by engaging signalling proteins (enzymes, adaptor, anchoring and scaffold proteins). The project is focused on elucidating the structure and function of key signalling protein-protein complexes that govern intracellular information flow. The ultimate goal is to develop pharmaceutically viable strategies to modulate intracellular signalling activity of signalling proteins implicated in cancer or in inflammatory diseases. The Research Center for Natural Sciences, Hungarian Academy of Sciences is located on the ELTE TTK campus just 200 meters away from the Chemistry and Biology buildings of ELTE. The Protein-Protein Interaction group is part of the Institute of Enzymology housing 17 research groups all interested in Protein Science.

Required language skills: english (at least B2 level)
Further requirements: 
Some former experience in molecular biology is needed. Experience in structural biology and/or cell culture based techniques is an advantage.

Number of students who can be accepted: 1

Deadline for application: 2017-05-31
