Turning up the heat mimics allosteric signaling in imidazole-glycerol phosphate synthase.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Allosteric drugs have the potential to revolutionize biomedicine due to their enhanced selectivity and protection against overdosage. However, we need to better understand allosteric mechanisms in order to fully harness their potential in drug discovery. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy are used to investigate how increases in temperature affect allostery in imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase. Results demonstrate that temperature increase triggers a cascade of local amino acid-to-amino acid dynamics that remarkably resembles the allosteric activation that takes place upon effector binding. The differences in the allosteric response elicited by temperature increase as opposed to effector binding are conditional to the alterations of collective motions induced by either mode of activation. This work provides an atomistic picture of temperature-dependent allostery, which could be harnessed to more precisely control enzyme function.
