A project is available that aims to engineer immune proteins to enhance NK cell and T cell fuction. The project will focus on protein engineering and yeast library screening of nanobodies with therapeutic potenital. Techniques employed include cellular and biophysical assays, yeast library maintence and screening and structural biology (X-ray crystallography). The goal of this project is to develop molecules with commercial and thearpeutic potential for the treatment of human tumours.
