Research Topic: How glutamate and glutamine regulate plant growth and defense
Research Description:
Our laboratory uses molecular genetics approaches to study how plants sense and
respond to amino acids (glutamate and glutamine). We have found that, in addition to
being essential nutrients for plant growth, glutamate and glutamine can also enhance
plant defense responses. We welcome individuals who are interested in plant biology
and plan to pursue advanced degrees to join our team in exploring the novel functions
of amino acids in plants.

錄取者將參與植物與環境交互作用相關研究，主要以地錢（Marchantia）、阿拉伯芥（Arabidopsis）及可能包含大豆等植物為研究材料，探討植物在熱逆境及全球暖化相關環境變化下的生理與分子反應，以及高海拔作物生理時鐘受環境變化影響的調控機制。主要工作內容包括分子選殖、蛋白質表現分析及突變株篩選。
本研究計畫將與比利時 Ive De Smet 博士及 Devang Mehta 博士的研究團隊合作進行。
The laboratory of Dr. Ting-Ying Wu at the Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology (IPMB), Academia Sinica, invites applications for a full-time Research Assistant position.
The laboratory is located on the main campus of Academia Sinica in Taipei, Taiwan. IPMB is home to nearly 300 researchers and staff members from Taiwan and more than 15 other countries. The institute provides state-of-the-art core facilities in cell biology, microscopy, high-performance computing, and multi-omics analysis, offering an excellent environment for interdisciplinary research.
The successful candidate will participate in research on plant–environment interactions. Using plant systems including Marchantia, Arabidopsis, and potentially soybean, the project will investigate the physiological and molecular responses of plants to heat stress and environmental changes associated with global warming. The research will also explore how environmental changes affect circadian clock regulation in high-altitude crops.
Primary responsibilities include molecular cloning, protein expression analysis, and mutant screening.
This research project will be conducted in collaboration with the research groups of Dr. Ive De Smet and Dr. Devang Mehta in Belgium.

The major research interests in the LAI lab are to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying how bacterial pathogens deploy protein secretion systems for survival at its ecological niche and successful infection inside the plant host. We study the mechanistic and biological insights of the two major protein secretion nanomachines, type IV and type VI secretion systems (T4SS and T6SS), in Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causal agent of crown gall disease and powerful gene transfer tool. We also aim to identify novel agrobacterial and plant genes critical for plant transformation and gene editing. The knowledge may provide new insights to improve Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation and translational applications in biomedicine and/or agriculture.

The Research Assistant will work with a senior Ph.D. student or a postdoc to carry out a two-year research grant to study the antibacterial T6SS with focuses to investigate the T6SS evolution and assembly mechanisms.

The LAI lab provides the research environments and expertise on studies of protein secretion and pathogen-plant interactions using various tools including genetics/genomics, molecular biology, biochemistry/proteomics, and cell biology. The research may expand to study structural aspects of T6SS-assocaited protein complex using X-ray crystallography and cryoEM. The postdoc is also encouraged to develop an independent project and will be trained to serve as a mentor toward an independent investigator. The LAI lab is also active in international collaborations, which will bring opportunities for abroad training.
