Summary: The study compares the thermodynamic stability of G4s formed by two different lengths of the KRAS promoter sequence, showing that the unfolding mechanism of KRAS 32R is more complex than that of KRAS 22RT. The binding properties of two well-known G4-targeting anticancer compounds, TMPyP4 and BRACO-19, to the KRAS G4s were also investigated. This physicochemical study aims to assist in selecting the best G4 target for potential anticancer drugs.

Summary: This research paper examines the issues associated with power compensation isothermal titration calorimetry, highlighting the possibility of obtaining different enthalpy values with different instruments and setting parameters. It emphasizes that modern calorimeters' dynamic power compensation mode may lead to overcompensation of heat effects, resulting in experimental results heavily reliant on chosen parameters. To avoid these problems, the paper suggests checking raw signals and conducting experiments with low or disabled power compensation when observing switching effects.

Summary: The stress intensity factor (SIF) of opposite surface cracks in an un-notched round bar under tension and combined load conditions was determined using a numerical method. The influence of loading modes on SIF was investigated, considering different crack depth ratios and crack aspect ratios. It was found that the SIF distribution changed as the crack depth ratio increased under pure tensile loading, and nonuniform and asymmetric SIF spread was observed when torque was applied. The effect of mode-II and mode-III fractures was more pronounced under combined loading.

Summary: Natural fibre-based nanocomposite is a revolutionary material with excellent strength-to-weight ratio and lightweight, widely used in construction and dynamic industries. This study investigated the effects of silicon nanoparticles on the moisture absorption, mechanical properties, flammability, and dynamic mechanical behavior of PP/jute fibre composites. The results showed that increasing the weight of SiO2 nanoparticles improved the modulus of elasticity, tension strength, and elongation at breakage of the composites. The addition of SiO2 nanoparticles also enhanced the fire characteristics and dynamic mechanical behavior. However, the dispersion of SiO2 nanoparticles in the composites needs to be improved.
