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

A general method is presented for magnetic field alignment of proteins in solution. By tagging a target protein with calmodulin saturated with paramagnetic lanthanide ions it is possible to measure substantial residual dipolar couplings (RDC) whilst minimising the effects of pseudocontact shifts on the target protein. A construct was made consisting of a calmodulin-binding peptide (M13 from sk-MLCK) attached to a target protein, dihydrofolate reductase in this case. The engineered protein binds tightly to calmodulin saturated with terbium, a paramagnetic lanthanide ion. By using only a short linker region between the M13 and the target protein, some of the magnetic field alignment induced in the CaM(Tb3+)4 is effectively transmitted to the target protein (DHFR). 1H-15N HSQC IPAP experiments on the tagged complex containing 15N-labelled DHFR-M13 protein and unlabelled CaM(Tb3+)4 allow one to measure RDC contributions in the aligned complex. RDC values in the range +4.0 to -7.4 Hz were measured at 600 MHz. Comparisons of 1H-15N HSQC spectra of 15N-DHFR-M13 alone and its complexes with CaM(Ca2+)4 and CaM(Tb3+)4 indicated that (i) the structure of the target protein is not affected by the complex formation and (ii) the spectra of the target protein are not seriously perturbed by pseudocontact shifts. The use of a relatively large tagging group (CaM) allows us to use a lanthanide ion with a very high magnetic susceptibility anisotropy (such as Tb3+) to give large alignments while maintaining relatively long distances from the target protein nuclei (and hence giving only small pseudocontact shift contributions).
