Offer Description

The aim of this postdoc is to computationally understand and model the efficiency of the Diversity Generating Retroelements (DGR) system used by phages and certain bacteria to diversify their proteins. This theoretical understanding will then be used in collaboration with David Bikard's group (Institut Pasteur) to generate new variants of the Cas9 protein.

The postdoc, based at LPENS, will be responsible for developing models based on sequence data and mutation probabilities performed by the DGR retropolymerase system to find the best DNA sequences for generating new proteins. He/she will work closely with the Institut Pasteur experimental group.

The young researcher will work at LPENS, and will frequently visit the Institut Pasteur.
