Uniqueness of RNA Coliphage Qβ Display System in Directed Evolutionary Biotechnology
Viruses, 2021 Phage display technology involves the surface genetic engineering of phages to expose desirable proteins or peptides whose gene sequences are packaged within phage genomes, thereby rendering direct linkage between genotype with phenotype feasible.

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.This study employs an in silico virtual screening workflow to evaluate lactic acid bacteria (LAB)‐derived bacteriocins as potential inhibitors of the monkeypox virus DNA polymerase (MPDP). Protein‐peptide docking simulations using the HADDOCK platform revealed that Sakacin P and Mundticin KS possess the highest binding affinities for the MPDP target ...

Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms of Bacterial Anti‐Phage Defence Systems
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.Panoptes as an example for an antiphage system consists of OptS producing a cyclic dinucleotide that prevents activation of OptE, a transmembrane protein. Phage T4 infection introduces the sponge protein Acb2 that adsorbs the cyclic dinucleotide thus activating OptE which disrupts the cell membrane aborting phage infection.

Virological and bacteriological quality of drinking water in Ethiopia
Applied Water Science, 2018 Since unsafe water is responsible for many illness, deaths, and economic failure, water quality monitoring is essential. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 218 drinking waters samples collected between February and June 2016 to assess water quality
