3. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This Postdoctoral Associate position in the Petes lab does research related to the genetic regulation of genome stability using both genetic and molecular biological approaches to examine how mitotic recombination events and mutations are controlled by features of chromosome structure and sequence in S. cerevisiae. For example, we recently showed that mutations in the yeast gene MET18 leads to a very elevated rate of genomic deletions, particularly in GC-rich sequences (Kiktev et al., 2021;). We also demonstrated that the mutagenic effect of met18 is a consequence of a reduced levels of iron-sulfur clusters within the catalytic sub-unit of DNA polymerase delta.
