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

Tropomyosin binds end to end along the actin filament. Tropomyosin ends, and the complex they form, are required for actin binding, cooperative regulation of actin filaments by myosin, and binding to the regulatory protein, troponin T. The aim of the work was to understand the isoform and structural specificity of the end-to-end association of tropomyosin. The ability of N-terminal and C-terminal model peptides with sequences of alternate alpha-tropomyosin isoforms, and a troponin T fragment that binds to the tropomyosin overlap, to form complexes was analyzed using circular dichroism spectroscopy. Analysis of N-terminal extensions (N-acetylation, Gly, AlaSer) showed that to form an overlap complex between the N-terminus and the C-terminus requires that the N-terminus be able to form a coiled coil. Formation of a ternary complex with the troponin T fragment, however, effectively takes place only when the overlap complex sequences are those found in striated muscle tropomyosins. Striated muscle tropomyosins with N-terminal modifications formed ternary complexes with troponin T that varied in affinity in the order: N-acetylated > Gly > AlaSer > unacetylated. The circular dichroism results were corroborated by native gel electrophoresis, and the ability of the troponin T fragment to promote binding of full-length tropomyosins to filamentous actin.
