Insight into HIV-1 reverse transcriptase-aptamer interaction from molecular dynamics simulations.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) is considered to be one of the key targets for antiviral drug therapy. The emergence of the aptamers as potential inhibitors against HIV-1 reverse transcriptase has attracted the attention of the scientific community because these macromolecules can effectively inhibit HIV-1 RT with between micromolar to picomolar concentrations. However, it is not clear how aptamers interact with HIV-1 RT. We have undertaken a molecular dynamics (MD) study in order to gain a keen insight into the conformational dynamics of HIV-1 RT on the formation of a complex with an aptamer or DNA substrate. We have therefore employed three separate models: apo HIV-1 RT, HIV-1 RT with a bound RNA aptamer, and HIV-1 RT with a bound DNA substrate. The results show that HIV-1 RT complex with an aptamer was more stable than that with DNA substrate. It was found that the aptamer interacted with HIV-1 RT in a fingers-and-thumb-closed conformation, at the bound at the nucleic acid substrate binding site. We identified key residues within the HIV-1 RT-aptamer complex in order to help design, develop, and test a new aptamer based on therapies in the future.
