  • Publication number: 20220344037
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nursing information module automation system and method. The method includes steps of detecting a nursing record inputted by a user; transmitting the nursing record to a nursing information module automation natural language processing model to perform a focus prediction, so as to automatically predict at least one nursing focus based on the nursing record; and recommending at least one recommended module in accordance with the at least one nursing focus by the nursing information module automation natural language processing model.

  • Patent number: 7795388
    Abstract: The present invention provides chaperonin polypeptides which are modified to include N-terminal and C-terminal ends that are relocated from the central pore region to various different positions in the polypeptide which are located on the exterior of the folded modified chaperonin polypeptide. In the modified chaperonin polypeptide, the naturally-occurring N-terminal and C-terminal ends are joined together directly or with an intervening linker peptide sequence. The relocated N-terminal or C-terminal ends can be covalently joined to, or bound with another molecule such as a nucleic acid molecule, a lipid, a carbohydrate, a second polypeptide, or a nanoparticle. The modified chaperonin polypeptides can assemble into double-ringed chaperonin structures. Further, the chaperonin structures can organize into higher order structures such as nanofilaments or nanoarrays which can be used to produce nanodevices and nanocoatings.
