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 tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) is a 34-aa sequence motif, typically found in tandem clusters, that occurs in proteins of bacteria, archea, and eukaryotes. TPRs interact with other proteins, although few details on TPR-protein interactions are known. In this paper we show that a portion of a loop in the homeodomain of the DNA-binding protein alpha2 is required for its recognition by the TPRs of the corepressor Ssn6. The amino acid sequence of this loop is similar to the sequences recognized by the TPRs of an entirely different protein, Pex5, which directs peroxisomal import. We further show that alpha2 can be made to bind specifically in vitro to the TPRs of Pex5 and that a point mutation that disrupts the alpha2-Ssn6 interaction also disrupts the alpha2-Pex5 interaction. These results demonstrate that two different TPR proteins recognize their target by a similar mechanism, raising the possibility that other TPR-target interactions could occur through the same means.
