Stepwise order in protein complex assembly: approaches and emerging themes.
Review in Open biology, 2025. 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
Protein-based nanomachines drive every cellular process. An explosion of high-resolution structures of multiprotein complexes has improved our understanding of what these machines look like and how they work, but we still know relatively little about how they assemble in living cells. For example, it has only recently been appreciated that many complexes assemble co-translationally, with at least one subunit still undergoing active translation while already interacting with other subunits. One aspect that is particularly understudied is assembly order, the idea that there is a stepwise order to the subunit-subunit associations that underlies the efficient assembly of the quaternary structure. Here, we integrate a review of the methodological approaches commonly used to query assembly order within a discussion of studies of the 20S proteasome core particle, septin protein complexes, and the histone octamer. We highlight shared and distinct properties of these complexes that illustrate general themes applicable to most other multisubunit assemblies.
