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

Protein-protein interactions are at the basis of many protein functions, and the knowledge of 3D structures of protein-protein complexes provides structural, mechanical and dynamical pieces of information essential to understand these functions. Protein-protein interfaces can be seen as stable, organized regions where residues from different partners form non-covalent interactions that are responsible for interaction specificity and strength. They are commonly described as a peripheral region, whose role is to protect the core region that concentrates the most contributing interactions, from the solvent. To get insights into the dynamics of protein-protein complexes, we carried out all-atom molecular dynamics simulations in explicit solvent on eight different protein-protein complexes of different functional class and interface size by taking into account the bound and unbound forms. On the one hand, we characterized structural changes upon binding of the proteins, and on the other hand we extensively analyzed the interfaces and the structural waters involved in the binding. Based on our analysis, in 6 cases out of 8, the interfaces rearranged during the simulation time, in stable and long-lived substates with alternative residue-residue contacts. These rearrangements are not restricted to side-chain fluctuations in the periphery but also affect the core interface. Finally, the analysis of the waters at the interface and involved in the binding pointed out the importance to take into account their role in the estimation of the interaction strength.
