Protein identification facilities are easily available through the lab's network. The general objective of the project is to identify proteins which are chemically affected by oxidative stress conditions, using a proteomics-based approach. Skills in cell biology, protein work and immunoblotting techniques are required. Skills in 2D electrophoresis are a plus, but not strictly required, as they are already present in the lab. Fluent english or french is required, as well as a PhD in biochemistry or cell biology.
All nationalities are welcome.
The proteomics group comprises a group leader and a full time technician. Protein identification facilities are easily available through the lab's network. The general objective of the project is to begin to build the proteome of membrane neuronal proteins, using mammalian models. This will imply the development of dedicated techniques for the analysis of membrane proteins, as they are quite reluctant to standard proteomics techniques. This development will be sustained by the permanent staff of the group, which is deeply involved in this topic.
