Body:
Position available at Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC), Sweden, Dept. of Plant Physiology, Umeå University, from July 2010 or at the earliest possible time point. The position in the research group of Dr. Markus Grebe is supported by the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet).
Project description. The project addresses the coordination of cell polarity within the plane of the tissue layer (planar polarity) in the root epidermis of Arabidopsis thaliana (c.f. Fischer et al. 2006. Current Biology 16, 2143-2149; Ikeda et al. 2009. Nature Cell Biology 11, 731-738). The work aims towards identification of molecular and genetic interactors of KREUZ UND QUER, a planar polarity protein from Arabidopsis, by protein-protein interaction screening in yeast and genetic suppressor screening in an Arabidopsis kreuz und quer mutant background. A PhD education is 4 years (48 months). Up to 20% as teaching assistant may be included in the position (then the position will be extended accordingly).
