Discovering and Targeting Dynamic Drugging Pockets of Oncogenic Proteins: The Role of Magnesium in Conformational Changes of the G12D Mutated Kirsten Rat Sarcoma-Guanosine Diphosphate Complex.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
KRAS-G12D mutations are the one of most frequent oncogenic drivers in human cancers. Unfortunately, no therapeutic agent directly targeting KRAS-G12D has been clinically approved yet, with such mutated species remaining undrugged. Notably, cofactor Mg2+ is closely related to the function of small GTPases, but no investigation has been conducted yet on Mg2+ when associated with KRAS. Herein, through microsecond scale molecular dynamics simulations, we found that Mg2+ plays a crucial role in the conformational changes of the KRAS-GDP complex. We located two brand new druggable dynamic pockets exclusive to KRAS-G12D. Using the structural characteristics of these two dynamic pockets, we designed in silico the inhibitor DBD15-21-22, which can specifically and tightly target the KRAS-G12D-GDP-Mg2+ ternary complex. Overall, we provide two brand new druggable pockets located on KRAS-G12D and suitable strategies for its inhibition.
