directed evolution of AtMP1 antimicrobial peptide to improve anticancer activity.

Various studies have demonstrated that directed evolution is a powerful tool in enhancing protein properties. In this study, directed evolution was used to enhance the efficacy of synthesised AtMP1 antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells. The modification of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and prediction of peptide properties using bioinformatic tools were carried out using four databases, including ADP3, CAMP-R3, AMPfun, and ANTICP.

Optimizing the superstructure configuration of highway bridges for cost-effective construction.

The structural progress of bridges in conjunction with efficiency has gained researchers' attention in the last few decades. Structures optimization applying mathematical analysis is utilized to achieve sustainability in the design and construction of bridges. Despite the extensive research in this area of knowledge, further structural optimization development needs to be developed.

Impact of material supply chain on the productivity optimization for the construction of roads projects.

Materials require special consideration when developing a project plan because they make up such a sizable chunk of the overall budget. Materials supply and delivery are crucial especially in road construction projects as they are required for the daily construction process. Lack of materials is a major source of jobsite productivity loss.

identification and assessment of a potential anti-breast cancer activity of antimicrobial peptide retrieved from the ATMP1 fish peptide.

A previous study has shown that synthetic antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from (ATMP1) could inhibit the progression of breast cancer cell lines. In this study, we are interested in studying altered versions of previous synthetic AMPs to gain some insight into the peptides functions. The AMPs were altered and subjected to bioinformatics prediction using four databases (ADP3, CAMP-R3, AMPfun, and ANTICP) to select the highest anticancer activity.

Planning and Budgeting of Medical Devices Among Ethiopian Public Hospitals.

Background: Planning and budgeting of medical devices allow a healthcare institution to properly use funds, acquire quality and efficient medical devices, and improve healthcare service delivery. The lack of proper policy in the procurement and management of medical devices causes inappropriate usage of funds and impedes the quality of a product. This study aimed to identify the current practices and gaps in the planning and budgeting of medical devices in Ethiopian public hospitals.
