DNA-Based Molecular Clamp for Probing Protein Interactions and Structure under Force.
Article in ACS nano, 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
Cellular mechanotransduction, a process central to cell biology, embryogenesis, adult physiology, and multiple diseases, is thought to be mediated by force-driven changes in protein conformation that control protein function. However, methods to study proteins under defined mechanical loads on a biochemical scale are lacking. We report the development of a DNA-based device in which the transition between single- and double-stranded DNA applies tension to an attached protein. Using a fragment of the talin rod domain as a test case, negative-stain electron microscopy reveals programmable extension, while pull down assays show tension-induced binding to two ligands, ARPC5L and vinculin, known to bind to cryptic sites inside the talin structure. These results demonstrate the utility of the DNA clamp for biochemical studies and potential structural analysis.
