Offer Description

This project aims at characterizing novel molecular mechanisms by which sumoylation regulates gene expression and chromatin in preadipocytes and during adipocyte differentiation. The proposed research also has biomedical relevance, with implications ranging from obesity to metabolic disorders and regenerative medicine. The project will be conducted using mouse and human cells with the possibility to use mouse models. We use traditional biochemistry and cell biology methods as well as state of the art genomics, transcriptomics and mass spectrometry technics. 

The PhD will be supervised by Ass. Prof. Pierre Chymkowitch. The Chymkowitch lab investigates the transcriptional regulation of gene expression by the Small Ubiquitin-like modifier SUMO.
