Development of high-affinity peptide-drug conjugates for investigating the TRIM24 PHD and bromodomain by Platt, MA

“…Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays revealed the PDCs have picomolar affinity for TRIM24, resulting from a slow dissociation rate, consistent with a bivalent binding mode. Furthermore, by BROMO<em>scan</em> the PDCs demonstrated 13-fold selectivity for TRIM24 (PHD-BRD) over BRPF1 (BRD). …”

Compositionally graded alloys fabricated using the laser powder bed fusion technique by Wei, Siyuan

Dissonances in care: childhood, well-being, and the politics of welfare in Japan by Chapman, CR

“…National debates center on how to care for children, ranging from defining children’s needs to enhancing practitioners’ skills, and coincide with burgeoning concern among authorities for the ever-growing rates of child abuse, mental illness, and disability. …”

LKAW: a robust watermarking method based on large kernel convolution and adaptive weight assignment by Zhang, Xiaorui, Jiang, Rui, Sun, Wei, Song, Aiguo, Wei, Xindong, Meng, Ruohan

“…Further, a high-frequency wavelet loss is proposed, by which the watermarking is restricted to only the low-frequency wavelet sub-bands, thereby enhancing the robustness of watermarking against image compression. …”

Mechanisms and Implementation of Thermo-Optical Annealing in Silica Fiber Sensors for Radiation-Induced Attenuation Mitigation by Legoupil, Aurelien Y. M.

“…We design a white light absorption spectroscopy setup with in-situ irradiation and optical annealing, working at liquid nitrogen temperature and different post-irradiation warm-up rates. For the pure silica core and F-doped cladding fibers studied, the RIA spectrum obtained is decomposed into known radiation-induced defect absorption bands, highlighting the key role of self-trapped holes in RIA at telecommunication wavelengths. …”
