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

Axonemal and cytoplasmic dyneins share a highly conserved 8 kDa light chain (DLC8) for motor assembly and function. Other than serving as a light chain of dynein complexes, DLC8 has been shown to bind a larger number of proteins with diverse biological functions including cell cycle control, apoptosis, and cell polarity maintenance. Therefore, DLC8 is likely a multifunctional regulatory protein. DLC8 exists as a dimer in solution, and the protein dimer is capable of binding to two target molecules. In this work, the backbone dynamics of DLC8, both in its apo- and target-peptide bound forms, were characterized by 15N NMR relaxation studies. The relaxation data were analyzed using model-free approach. We show that the target peptide-binding region of apo-DLC8 experiences microsecond-to-millisecond time scale conformational fluctuation, suggesting that the target-binding region of the protein is capable of adjusting its shape and size in responding to its various targets. The conformational breathing of the target-binding region of apo-DLC8 was also supported by backbone amide exchange experiment. Such segmental conformational motion of the protein is significantly reduced upon forming a complex with a target peptide. The dynamic properties of DLC8 in solution provide insight into the protein's diverse sequence-dependent target binding.
