About This Opportunity
University of Oxford offers this PhD project on plant sulfiredoxin and oxidative-stress tolerance, with research based in Oxford.
The project studies plant sulfiredoxin, an antioxidant enzyme that reverses protein S-sulfinylation, and asks how substrate recognition and catalytic activity can be engineered to strengthen stress tolerance. Research connects protein biochemistry with plant molecular biology and oxidative-stress signalling.
