Single-Molecule Studies on the Motion and Force Generation of the Kinesin-3 Motor KIF1A.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
KIF1A is a neuron-specific member of the kinesin-3 family of microtubule (MT) plus-end-directed motor proteins. It powers the migration of nuclei in differentiating brain stem cells and the transport of synaptic precursors and dense core vesicles in axons. Its dysfunction causes severe neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases termed KIF1A-associated neurological disorders (KAND). KAND mutations span the entirety of the KIF1A protein sequence, of which the majority are located within the motor domain and are thus predicted to affect the motor's motility and force-generating properties. Unfortunately, the molecular etiologies of KAND remain poorly understood, in part because KIF1A's molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we describe detailed methods for how to express a tail-truncated dimeric KIF1A in E. coli cells and provide step-by-step protocols for performing single-molecule studies with total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy and optical tweezers assays, which, when combined with structure-function studies, help to decipher KIF1A's molecular mechanism.
