Deep-Learning-Based Approaches for Rational Design of Stapled Peptides With High Antimicrobial Activity and Stability.
Article in Microbial biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) face stability and toxicity challenges in clinical use. Stapled modification enhances their stability and effectiveness, but its application in peptide design is rarely reported. This study built ten prediction models for stapled AMPs using deep and machine learning, tested their accuracy with an independent data set and wet lab experiments, and characterised stapled loop structures using structural, sequence and amino acid descriptors. AlphaFold improved stapled peptide structure prediction. The support vector machine model performed best, while two deep learning models achieved the highest accuracy of 1.0 on an external test set. Designed cysteine- and lysine-stapled peptides inhibited various bacteria with low concentrations and showed good serum stability and low haemolytic activity. This study highlights the potential of the deep learning method in peptide modification and design.
