Postdoc Position: Novel Synthetic Biology Parts for

vor 4 Wochen


Wien, Österreich ACIB - Austrian Centre of Industrial ... Vollzeit

**That’s the project**

The production of recombinant proteins used as biopharmaceuticals, industrial enzymes and novel animal protein replacement in nutrition is of paramount importance for both public health and a sustainable bio-based economy. Improving the biological production platforms, including the yeast _Pichia pastoris_ (syn _Komagataella phaffii_), is an important tool to make bioprocesses sustainable in the long term and at the same time economically competitive. The aim of this project is to develop novel parts and genetic tools that allow for regulatable gene expression, while avoiding the use of hazardous substances.

Such parts will be identified by systems biology approaches (omics). Cloning and genetic manipulations will be carried out using state-of the art-methods such as Golden Gate Assembly and CRISPR/Cas9-based homology directed recombination (HDR). The resulting strains will be characterized for growth and productivity in high throughput screening and bioreactor cultivations.

**That could be your future**

You are working in an enjoyable work climate, have numerous possibilities for further education and personal development. You are part of a challenging and helpful work environment full of team spirit and enthusiasm for your job. You expand your expertise and bridge your science to industry.
