This Health Research Program opportunity is with Dr. Oscar Vargas-Rodriguez, Molecular biology and Biophysics.
Project Description: The summer research project aims to decipher the functional role of a superfamily of proteins known as aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases in bacterial pathogenicity. These proteins regulate protein biosynthesis and may enable pathogenic microbes to survive, adapt, and thrive in different environments, particularly within their host during colonization and infection. The student will perform standard molecular biology and biochemistry assays, including molecular cloning, protein, nucleic acid manipulation, enzymatic assays, and cell-based experiments.
