Ratio Determination of Solids and Voids for Traditional Malay Carvings: a Preparation for Environmental Performance
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Carvings in forms of openings, roof ends and walls have been incorporated as aesthetic and climatic element in the Malay traditional buildings. Determining the ratio of solids and voids on carvings elements is seen as an essential step to gain insight on the performance of carvings as a shading devices to control sunlight and air flow. The research

Selection of Potentially Optimized Trypsin Variant with a More Hydrophobic Cluster Active Site via a Phage Display Approach
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Protein optimization can generally be obtained by rational enzyme design and directed evolution. Phage display has been used as a method for directed evolution. Trypsin has been studied as a biocatalyst in peptide synthesis despite its usual function in hydrolyzing peptide bonds. The objective of this study is to identify trypsin variants with a mo

An S188v Mutation Alters Substrate Specificity of non-Stereospecific α-haloalkanoic Acid Dehalogenase E (Dehe)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The non-stereospecific α-haloalkanoic acid dehalogenase E (DehE) degrades many halo- genated compounds but is ineffective against β-halogenated compounds such as 3- chloropropionic acid (3CP). Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and site-directed mutagenesis we show here that introducing the mutation S188V into DehE improves sub- strate spe
