We have postdoctoral positions open (see ad below). Projects involve DNA damage signaling mechanisms and development of novel approaches to interrogate kinase/phosphatase action in cells. Come join our lab! Please share / apply.

How does DNA damage signaling suppress chromosomal rearrangements? Check our recent paper just out in EMBO Journal. Multi-step control of homologous recombination via Mec1/ATR suppresses chromosomal rearrangements | embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…

This work was driven by Bokun (Bokun Xie) a fantastic graduate student. He is starting to look for a postdoctoral position to start in the Fall. The lab that is able to recruit him will be very lucky!

New paper on non-canonical DNA-PKcs signaling. We speculate that the substrate recognition pocket of DNA-PKcs can adopt multiple configurations, which would explain how it can phosphorylate S/T-Q as well as S/T-ψ-D/E motifs. jbc.org/article/S0021-…
