Revisiting the role of thermal energy storage in low‐temperature electrified district heating systems by Hai Lu, Hao Zhang, Shuai Lu

“…Results showed that the thermal capacitance, thermal resistance, and indoor temperature range of the building were major influencing factors, while the electricity price tariff and heat loss parameters of TES were minor ones. The results indicate that there is no need to equip the TES for operational optimisation purposes when the building thermal capacitance is larger than a threshold value, the thermal resistance is smaller than a threshold value, or the indoor temperature range is broader than a threshold value. …”

RNase P cleavage of pseudoknot substrates reveals differences in active site architecture that depend on residue N-1 in the 5’ leader by David M. Kosek, J. Luis Leal, Ema Kikovska-Stojanovska, Guanzhong Mao, Shiying Wu, Samuel C. Flores, Leif A. Kirsebom

“…The nucleobase and the 2’hydroxyl at the position immediately 5’ of the cleavage site contribute to both cleavage efficiency and site selection, where C at this position induces significant cleavage at an alternative site, one base upstream of the main cleavage site. The frequencies of cleavage at these two sites and Mg2+ binding change upon altering the structural topology in the vicinity of the cleavage site as well as by replacing Mg2+ with other divalent metal ions. …”
