Description The laboratory of David A. Scicchitano in the Division of Science at New York University, located in New York, seeks to recruit a junior research scientist to work on the mechanisms underlying genome maintenance, particularly in response to agents that damage DNA. DNA damage within the transcription unit of a gene has profound effects on the quality and quantity of transcripts when the region is expressed. The location of DNA damage also influences its repair. This position will examine the effect of DNA damage on transcription and other cellular processes while investigating the cellular pathways that remove it. The current approaches include the use of site-specifically modified DNA to assess the effect of DNA damage on the quality and quantity of RNA produced when the lesion is present in an actively expressed gene. Applicants should be highly motivated. The ideal candidate will have knowledge of some of the following: recombinant DNA, molecular...
