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

Coiled-coil peptides represent the principal building blocks for structure-based design of bionanomaterials. The sequence-structure relationship and precise nanoscale ordering of the coiled-coil helices originate from the knob-into-hole (KIH) packing of side chains. The helical interface stabilized by the KIH interaction is known to have chain lengths ranging from 30 to 1000 residues. Yet the shortest peptide required for oligomerization through KIH assembly is still unknown. Here, we report that through atomic resolution a minimal seven-residue amphipathic helix forms a different type of KIH motif, termed "supramolecular KIH packing", which confers an exceptional stability to the helical dimers. Significantly, at a low pH, the peptide self-assembles into nanofibers with coiled-coil architecture resembling the natural fibrous proteins. Furthermore, hierarchical ordering of the nanofibers affords lyotropic liquid crystals composed of a shortest natural helical sequence. Thus, this study expands the sequence space for a coiled-coil folding manifold and provides another paradigm for designer nanomaterials from minimal helical sequences.
