This Health Research Program opportunity is with Dr. Joana Paulino, Department of Molecular Biology and Biophysics.
Project Description: The Paulino laboratory focuses on virus-host protein interaction that leads to the widely different disease outcomes in Orthoflaviviruses.
The summer intern will work on the expression and purification of proteins from Zika virus, Dengue virus, and Powassan virus. The research project encompasses: cloning of DNA fragments into expression plasmids, heterologous expression of viral proteins, and purification of soluble and membrane proteins. The intern will be trained in: chromatography techniques, western blots, and bacterial culture.
