Human cardiac β-myosin powerstroke energetics: Thin filament, Pi displacement, and mutation effects.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The powerstroke of human cardiac β-myosin is an important stage of the cross-bridge cycle that generates force for muscle contraction. However, the starting structure of this process has never been resolved, and the relative timing of the powerstroke and inorganic phosphate (Pi) release is still controversial. In this study, we generated an atomistic model of myosin on the thin filament and utilized metadynamics simulations to predict the absent starting structure of the powerstroke. We demonstrated that the displacement of Pi from the active site during the powerstroke is likely necessary, reducing the energy barrier of the conformation change. The effects of the presence of the thin filament, the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutation R712L, and the binding of mavacamten on the powerstroke process were also investigated.
