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

Enzymes fold into unique three-dimensional structures to distribute their reactive amino acid residues, but environmental changes can disrupt their essential folding and lead to irreversible activity loss. The de novo synthesis of enzyme-like active sites is challenging due to the difficulty of replicating the spatial arrangement of functional groups. Here, we present a supramolecular mimetic enzyme formed by self-assembling nucleotides with fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc)-modified amino acids and copper. This catalyst exhibits catalytic functions akin those of copper cluster-dependent oxidases, and catalytic performance surpasses to date-reported artificial complexes. Our experimental and theoretical results reveal the crucial role of periodic arrangement of amino acid components, enabled by fluorenyl stacking, in forming oxidase-mimetic copper clusters. Nucleotides provide coordination atoms that enhance copper activity by facilitating the formation of a copper-peroxide intermediate. The catalyst shows thermophilic behavior, remaining active up to 95 °C in an aqueous environment. These findings may aid the design of advanced biomimetic catalysts and offer insights into primordial redox enzymes.
