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

We report progress toward a general strategy for mimicking the recognition properties of specific α-helices within natural proteins through the use of oligomers that are less susceptible than conventional peptides to proteolysis. The oligomers contain both α- and β-amino acid residues, with the density of the β subunits low enough that an α-helix-like conformation can be adopted but high enough to interfere with protease activity. Previous studies with a different protein-recognition system that suggested ring-constrained β residues can be superior to flexible β residues in terms of maximizing α/β-peptide affinity for a targeted protein surface. Here, we use mimicry of the 18-residue Bim BH3 domain to expand the scope of this strategy. Two significant advances have been achieved. First, we have developed and validated a new ring-constrained β residue that bears an acidic side chain, which complements previously known analogues that are either hydrophobic or basic. Second, we have discovered that placing cyclic β residues at sites that make direct contact with partner proteins can lead to substantial discrimination between structurally homologous binding partners, the proteins Bcl-xL and Mcl-1. Overall, this study helps to establish that α/β-peptides containing ring-preorganized β residues can reliably provide proteolytically resistant ligands for proteins that naturally evolved to recognize α-helical partners.
