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

MitoNEET is a recently identified diabetes drug target that coordinates a transferable 2Fe-2S cluster, and additionally contains an unusual strand swap. In this manuscript, we use a dual basin structure-based model to predict and characterize the folding and functionality of strand swapping in mitoNEET. We demonstrate that a strand unswapped conformation is kinetically accessible and that multiple levels of control are employed to regulate the conformational dynamics of the system. Environmental factors such as temperature can shift route preference toward the unswapped pathway. Additionally we see that a region recently identified as contributing to frustration in folding acts as a regulatory hinge loop that modulates conformational balance. Interestingly, strand unswapping transfers strain specifically to cluster-coordinating residues, opening the cluster-coordinating pocket. Strengthening contacts within the cluster-coordinating pocket opens a new pathway between the swapped and unswapped conformation that utilizes cracking to bypass the unfolded basin. These results suggest that local control within distinct regions affect motions important in regulating mitoNEET's 2Fe-2S clusters.
