Postdoc position in imaging-based biochemistry and single molecule biophysics

Posted by Anne Straube, on 2 September 2022

Wellcome-funded postdoc position in the Centre for Mechanochemical Cell Biology at University of Warwick. Join us to use imaging-based approaches to understand how molecular motors organise microtubules. We are looking for a biochemist/biophysicist interested in single molecule imaging using TIRF and single molecule force measurements using optical trapping, or a cell biologist with expertise in

Affimers – small probes for big imaging experiments

Posted by Laura Hankins, on 9 August 2022

Antibodies have been used to label proteins of interest since the 1970s. However, their large size (around 15 nm long for IgG) makes the penetration of dense structures within the cell a challenge and places the fluorophore away from the target protein. This latter issue, known as a ‘linkage error’, particularly impacts accuracy and precision
