PyMolsuggested: (PyMOL, RRID:SCR_000305)As computations of average H-bond graphs require the same number of amino acid residues in the graphs to be averaged, where needed we used Modeller 9.21 (Marti-Renom et al., 2000) to construct coordinates for missing amino acid residues.

Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).
Results from LimitationRecognizer: An explicit section about the limitations of the techniques employed in this study was not found. We encourage authors to address study limitations.Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.
Results from Barzooka: We did not find any issues relating to the usage of bar graphs.
Results from JetFighter: Please consider improving the rainbow (“jet”) colormap(s) used on pages 19, 20, 29 and 23. At least one figure is not accessible to readers with colorblindness and/or is not true to the data, i.e. not perceptually uniform.
