High-throughput investigation of cyclin docking interactions reveals the complexity of motif binding determinants.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Many regulatory protein-protein interactions depend on Short Linear Motifs (SLiMs). In the cell cycle, cyclin-CDKs recognize SLiMs to control substrate recruitment and phosphorylation timing. Here, we measure the relative binding strength of ~100,000 peptides to 11 human cyclins from five families (D, E, A, B, and F). Using a quantitative intracellular binding assay and large-scale tiled peptide screening, we identify multiple non-canonical binders unveiling a broader repertoire of cyclin docking motif types. Cryo-electron microscopy and saturation mutagenesis studies reveal distinct binding modes and sequence features governing motif recognition, binding strength, and cyclin preference. Docking motifs vary from highly selective to pan-cyclin, thereby fine-tuning the timing of CDK phosphorylation during cell cycle. Overall, these findings provide insights into the rules encoding specificity and affinity of SLiM-mediated interactions and offer a framework for understanding motif-driven protein networks across the proteome.
