Design of intrinsically disordered region binding proteins.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intrinsically disordered proteins and peptides play key roles in biology, but the lack of defined structures and the high variability in sequence and conformational preferences has made targeting such systems challenging. We describe a general approach for designing proteins that bind intrinsically disordered protein regions in diverse extended conformations with side chains fitting into complementary binding pockets. We used the approach to design binders for 39 highly diverse unstructured targets and obtain designs with pM to 100 nM affinities in 34 cases, testing ∼22 designs per target (including polar targets). The designs function in cells and as detection reagents, and are specific for their intended targets in all-by-all binding experiments. Our approach is a major step towards a general solution to the intrinsically disordered protein and peptide recognition problem.
