Role of native-state topology in the stabilization of intracellular antibodies.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The role played by the geometric position of each amino acid in the folding process of the immunoglobulin (Ig) variable domain is identified and measured through molecular dynamics simulations of models based on the topology of its native state. This measure allows identifying the parts of the protein that, for geometrical reasons, when mutated, would result in relevant protein stability changes. Simulations were performed without considering the covalent disulfide bond present in most of the Ig domains. The results are in good agreement with site-directed mutagenesis experiments on the folding of intracellular antibodies in which the disulfide bond does not form. We also found agreement with data on amino acid conservation in the Ig variable domain sequences. This indicates a new way for a rational approach to the design of intracellular antibodies more resistant to the suppression of the disulfide bond that occurs in the cytoplasm.
