Cloning Without Restriction Sites by Using Red/ET Recombination 11:00~11:30
Red/ET is a revolutionary method for DNA engineering. Recombineering with Red/ET allows unlimited cloning, subcloning, and modification of DNA at any chosen position. It permits precise engineering of DNA molecules of any size. Cloning using Red/ET has a number of advantages over conventional methods: First, it is independent of restriction sites as it does not rely on restriction enzymes for cloning. Second, there are no size limits of the DNA being modified, meaning it is a very useful tool in working with large vectors such as BACs or the E.coli chromosome. Also, there is no risk of unwanted mutations as all steps are controlled and take place in vivo. The final advantage is its speed, as many unnecessary and time-consuming conventional cloning steps can be avoided. The presentation will describe the use of Red/ET for the generation of targeting vectors and for the modification of the E.coli chromosome.

The world’s first measles, rubella, hepatitis B, meningitis and cervical cancer vaccines were developed in Wallonia (south Brussels). The region also hosts the world leaders in epilepsy treatment and proton therapy for cancer. And drug manufacturers in Wallonia, working in tandem with university laboratories on R&D, have contributed to major advances in the fight against global pandemics like tuberculosis, malaria, AIDS, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. For nearly fifty years, Wallonia has been fostering understanding and know-how in molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, stem cells, medical appliances and equipment – all leading-edge technologies in the life sciences field, up to and including cell research (ADN, ARN, proteins, human genomes, etc) and the development of innovative diagnostics and therapies. With 76 biotechnology companies, representing 74 percent of Belgian biotechnology, the industry has an annual turnover of € 2.7 billion, with 80 percent of its work focused on healthcare, and employs about 10,000 people. Companies present include Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, CooperVision, Baxter, GSK Biologicals, UCB, IBA and Eurogentec. The last four are all home-grown organizations that have since gone global: when Jean Stephenne, the present CEO and General Manager of GSK Biologicals, the ‘vaccine’ offspring of GlaxoSmithKline, joined the company in 1974, it employed a mere 54 people. Today it has a payroll of 9,000 worldwide, 5,500 of them in Wallonia. The emergence and global presence of these world leaders reflects the standards of scientific excellence, academic and industrial, nurtured in the region. Wallonia offers all the links in the biotech value chain: R&D, production, clinical testing, registration and commercialization, as well as close relationships between companies and university and non-academic research centers. The region also provides targeted forms of assistance like the university Technology Transfer Offices, the incubator units operated by university spin-offs. The region features 300 private and public R&D centers employing over 11,000 researchers. One-quarter, or 19,000, of the undergraduates at the three university systems of Louvain-la-Neuve (UCL), Brussels (ULB) and Liege (ULg) are all studying biomedical sciences, and one-fifth of the 5,000 PhDs are working on theses in this field. The BioWin cluster BioWin, is dedicated to the healthcare sector and related biotechnologies. BioWin, headed by Jean Stephenne of GSK Biologicals and Michel Goldman of the Institute of Medical Immunology/ULB, aims to become a world leader in fighting cancer, disorders of the immune system and diseases of the brain. The plan is to accelerate innovation by linking up universities and the private sector, and helping the smaller players in the field to achieve critical mass as a group. This pragmatic initiative reflects global market needs. The human capital of Wallonia is highly qualified, loyal and productive. In order to maintain these standards and ensure future growth, BioWin operates a series of training programs, in association with the private sector, universities, high schools and the Forem regional employment agency. Wallonia also has a chain of university hospitals with a total capacity of 30,000 beds, experienced personnel and state-of-the-art equipment. In addition, the Walloon government has launched a regional project to develop a biotech airbridge between Liege airport, Memphis and Singapore, the last equipped with a TNT Express facility linking Indonesia and China. Motorway links in the region provide a maximum one hour’s drive between the three principal biotech hubs. Awex-haute-definition

Genetic Vaccines for Human and Animal Health 14:30~15:00
Traditional or classical vaccines are either based on an attenuated but still active microorganism as a modified life vaccine, MLV, or an inactivated and therefore non-replicating agens as killed vaccine, KV. MLVs are able to induce a very strong immune response but lack in biosaftey: MLV can revert, can recombine, can induce the disease. KVs have a high biosaftey level but need strong adjuvances for activation the immune system. Traditional or classical vaccines are also limited for some serious infectious diseases – no available vaccines but an unmet need. Genetic engineered vaccines, marker vaccines and the corresponding marker diagnostic will circumvent all these obstacles. Fraunhofer
