Illuminating Disorder Induced by Glu in a Stable Arg-Anchored Transmembrane Helix.
Article in ACS omega, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Membrane proteins are vital for biological function and are complex to study. Even in model peptide-lipid systems, the combined influence or interaction of pairs of chemical groups still is not well understood. Disordered proteins, whether in solution or near lipid membranes, are an emerging paradigm for the initiation and control of biological function. The disorder can involve molecular orientation as well as molecular folding. This paper reports an astonishing induction of disorder when one Glu residue is introduced into a highly stable 23-residue transmembrane helix. The parent helix is anchored by a single Arg residue, tilted at a well-defined angle with respect to the DOPC bilayer normal and undergoes rapid cone precession. When Glu is introduced two residues away from Arg, with 200° (or 160°) radial separation, the helix properties change radically to exhibit a multiplicity of three or more disordered states. The helix characteristics have been monitored by deuterium (
