Design and Optimization of BRIL Fusion Constructs for Membrane Protein Cryo-EM Studies.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2026. 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
Structural determination of small membrane proteins by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) remains inherently challenging due to their low molecular weight, conformational heterogeneity, and lack of prominent structural features for reliable particle alignment. In this chapter, we describe how to design and perform biophysical characterization of BRIL fusion constructs that may facilitate structure determination by single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) analysis. We present a streamlined approach to select optimal constructs using AlphaFold predictions and characterization by mass photometry and thermal stability assays. We demonstrate the suitability of BRIL fusion strategy as a versatile approach for facilitating structural studies of small membrane proteins by cryo-EM.
