1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Conformational change during protein-ligand binding may significantly affect both the binding mechanism and the rate constant. Most earlier theories and simulations treated conformational change as stochastic gating with transition rates between reactive and nonreactive conformations uncoupled to ligand binding. Recently, we introduced a dual-transition-rates model in which the transition rates between reactive and nonreactive conformations depend on the protein-ligand distance [H.-X. Zhou, Biophys. J. 98, L15 (2010)]. Analytical results of that model showed that the apparent binding mechanism switches from conformational selection to induced fit, when the rates of conformational transitions increase from being much slower than the diffusional approach of the protein-ligand pair to being much faster. The conformational-selection limit (k(CS)) and the induced-fit limit (k(IF)) provide lower and upper bounds, respectively, for the binding rate constant. Here we introduce a general model in which the energy surface of the protein in conformational space is coupled to ligand binding, and present a method for calculating the binding rate constant from Brownian dynamics simulations. Analytical and simulation results show that, for an energy surface that switches from favoring the nonreactive conformation while the ligand is away to favoring the reactive conformation while the ligand is near, k(CS) and k(IF) become close and, thus, provide tight bounds to the binding rate constant. This finding has significant mechanistic implications and presents routes for obtaining good estimates of the rate constant at low cost.
