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

HrcA, a negative control repressor for chaperone expression from the obligate thermophile Bacillus thermoglucosidasius KP1006, was purified in a His-tagged form in the presence of 6 M urea but hardly renatured to an intact state due to extreme insolubility. Renaturation trials revealed that the addition of DNA to purified B. thermoglucosidasius HrcA can result in solubilization of HrcA free from the denaturing agent urea. Results from band shift and light scattering assays provided three new findings: (i) any species of DNA can serve to solubilize B. thermoglucosidasius HrcA, but DNA containing the CIRCE (controlling inverted repeat of chaperone expression) element is far more effective than other nonspecific DNA; (ii) B. thermoglucosidasius HrcA renatured with nonspecific DNA bound the CIRCE element in the molecular ratio of 2.6:1; and (iii) B. thermoglucosidasius HrcA binding to the CIRCE element was stable at below 50 degrees C whereas the complex was rapidly denatured at 70 degrees C, suggesting that the breakdown of HrcA is induced by heat stress and HrcA may act as a thermosensor to affect the expression of heat shock regulatory genes. These results will help to determine the nature of HrcA protein molecules.
