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 human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) US11 polypeptide is a type I membrane glycoprotein that targets major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules for destruction in a proteasome-dependent manner. Although the US11 signal sequence appears to be a classical N-terminal signal peptide in terms of its sequence and cleavage site, a fraction of newly synthesized US11 molecules retain the signal peptide after the N-linked glycan has been attached and translation of the US11 polypeptide has been completed. Delayed cleavage of the US11 signal peptide is determined by the first four residues, the so-called n-region of the signal peptide. Its replacement with the four N-terminal residues of the H-2K(b) signal sequence eliminates delayed cleavage. Surprisingly, a second region that affects the rate and extent of signal peptide cleavage is the transmembrane region close to the C-terminus of US11. Deletion of the transmembrane region of US11 (US11-180) significantly delays processing, a delay overcome by replacement with the H-2K(b) signal sequence. Thus, elements at a considerable distance from the signal sequence affect its cleavage.
