Summary
Novel has developed a novel platform for producing plasmids (NBX). Cloning is the process used to create a bacterial vector containing a gene of interest. There are several industry-standard procedures available for cloning, including restriction digestion-ligation-based cloning, Gibson assembly, and Golden Gate assembly. Once complete, the cloned plasmid is introduced into a bacterial cell (NBX) using a procedure called transformation. It is important to determine an optimized recipe for the transformation mixture based on the cloning mixture and heat shock parameters based on the format of the reaction tube. The trainee will work on these aspects, gaining experience in cloning/assembly methods transformation methods and recovery methods.

Description (French)
Novel a mis au point une nouvelle plateforme de production de plasmides (NBX). Le clonage est le processus utilisé pour créer un vecteur bactérien contenant un gène d’intérêt. Il existe plusieurs procédures industrielles standard pour le clonage, notamment le clonage basé sur la digestion-ligation de restriction, l’assemblage Gibson et l’assemblage Golden Gate. Une fois terminé, le plasmide cloné est introduit dans une cellule bactérienne par une procédure appelée transformation. Il est important de déterminer une recette optimisée pour le mélange de transformation en fonction du mélange de clonage et des paramètres de choc thermique en fonction du format du tube de réaction. La personne recrutée travaillera sur ces aspects et acquerra de l’expérience dans les méthodes de clonage/assemblage, les méthodes de transformation et les méthodes de récupération.
Expected Results
The purpose of IRAP’s Youth Employment Program is to assist in increasing the supply of highly qualified people, promoting the benefits of advanced studies, demonstrating federal leadership by investing in the skills required to meet the needs of the knowledge economy and facilitating the transition of highly skilled young people to a rapidly changing labour market.
