PDRA position to work on chemical biology approaches to understand post-translational S-acylation of plant proteins during development. Dundee, UK. UoD Life Sciences lifesci.dundee.ac.uk/vacancies/2022… Informal email enquiries encouraged. Deadline 19th March.

Funded 4 year PhD positions available in Hemsley Lab on plant immunity and development, focussing on signalling, post-translational modification, membrane dynamics, proteomics, biochemistry and chemical biology. bit.ly/3Jp3E0K. Informal enquiries [email protected]


Well done to Manoj Kumar in the Turner lab The University of Manchester for their comprehensive analysis of the Arabidopsis S-acylome, a valuable community resource now out in Nature Plants nature.com/articles/s4147…

Super interesting work by Piers Hemsley and Julien Gronnier. I love S-acylation, still so much to discover! ▶️ S-acylation stabilizes ligand-induced receptor kinase complex formation during plant pattern-triggered immune signaling Current Biology cell.com/current-biolog…


So happy that our receptor kinase S-acylation work is now out in Current Biology. Well done to first author Charlotte Hurst. Huge thank you to all of our co-authors in Gronnier Julien Gronnier, Zipfel and Robatzek labs. Top marks to Dionne Turnbull for artwork. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…

#Research from UoD Life Sciences discovered new details on how #plants perceive/respond to disease causing microbes Published in Current Biology this work balances the need to maximise plant yield w/the need for plant resistance against pathogens buff.ly/42o9Zno


Funded PhD project on plant receptor kinases in Hemsley Lab. Biochemistry, proteomics, lipidomics and physiology to understand how plants detect pathogens. Email [email protected] for informal chat (encouraged). UK/home fee status applicants only. dundee.ac.uk/phds/projects/…
