1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The monomer-dimer equilibrium for the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease has been investigated under physiological conditions. Dimer dissociation at pH 7.0 was correlated with a loss in beta-sheet structure and a lower degree of ANS binding. An autolysis-resistant mutant, Q7K/L33I/L63I, was used to facilitate sedimentation equilibrium studies at neutral pH where the wild-type enzyme is typically unstable in the absence of bound inhibitor. The dimer dissociation constant (KD) of the triple mutant was 5.8 microM at pH 7.0 and was below the limit of measurement (approximately 100 nM) at pH 4.5. Similar studies using the catalytically inactive D25N mutant yielded a KD value of 1.0 microM at pH 7.0. These values differ significantly from a previously reported value of 23 nM obtained indirectly from inhibitor binding measurements (Darke et al., 1994). We show that the discrepancy may result from the thermodynamic linkage between the monomer-dimer and inhibitor binding equilibria. Under conditions where a significant degree of monomer is present, both substrates and competitive inhibitors will shift the equilibrium toward the dimer, resulting in apparent increases in dimer stability and decreases in ligand binding affinity. Sedimentation equilibrium studies were also carried out on several drug-resistant HIV-1 protease mutants: V82F, V82F/I84V, V82T/I84V, and L90M. All four mutants exhibited reduced dimer stability relative to the autolysis-resistant mutant at pH 7.0. Our results indicate that reductions in drug affinity may be due to the combined effects of mutations on both dimer stability and inhibitor binding.
