Assistant Professor
Offer DescriptionAn estimated 850 million people worldwide is affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with CKD have a 10 to 30 times increase in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk compared to subjects with normal renal function, which cannot be attributed solely to traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Urea is quantitatively the most abundant retained solute in the body, where it is in equilibrium with its reactive decomposition product, cyanate, that can react with lysine residues and N-terminal amino groups of proteins and peptides, resulting in the formation of homocitrulline. This modification occurs at multiple sites within a single protein, altering protein charge, structure, and function.Based on our results we hypothesise that circulating, urea-derived cyanate leads to carbamylation-triggered alterations of RAS/KKS system components, including the major player in the blood pressure regulation; angiotensin converting enzyme I (ACE1). Therefore, we will investigate impact of carbamylation on critical elements of RAS/KKS system, including ACE1, bradykinin and chymase. We will also evaluate the role of carbamylation on ability of endothelium to exert its physiological functions and the use of recombinant bacterial enzyme to reverse the carbamylation process..Scope of duties: according to the Annex 1 to the Work Regulations of the Jagiellonian University – Model scopes of responsibilities and duties of academic teachers.Where to apply E-mailpiotr.mydel@uj.edu.plRequirementsResearch Field Biological sciences » Other Education Level PhD or equivalentSkills/QualificationsThe selection procedure is open for all individuals, who meet the requirements set out in Articles 113 and 116.2.3) of the Act of 20 July 2018 – Law on Higher Education and Science, and who meet the following eligibility criteria according to § 165 of the Statute of the Jagiellonian University:
