ALT POSTDOC POSITION AVAILABLE An in vivo Structure-Function Investigation of Photosystem II Damage STARTING DATE: APRIL 2023 DURATION: UP TO 3 YEARS PROJECT: Photoinhibition is a process where light irreversibly damages Photosystem II, the crucial photosynthetic enzyme allowing water oxidation. The initial mechanism of the process is under debate, and the exact location of the damage site(s) is unknown. To understand the molecular details of photoinhibition, in particular the energy dissipation process occurring upon damage, potential role of cytochrome b559 in photoprotection, and locating the side of the initial damage, you will work with internal- and external collaborators. You will be primarily tasked with development of genetic and biochemical tools in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Thermosynechococcus vulcanus, with freedom to explore the nature of energy conversion in these species using functional approaches.
