Importance of transmembrane segments in Escherichia coli SecY.
Article in Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
To assess the functional importance of the transmembrane regions of SecY, we constructed a series of SecY variants, in which the six central residues of each transmembrane segment were replaced by amino acid residues from either transmembrane segment 3 or 4 of LacY. The SecY function, as assessed by the ability to complement cold-sensitive secYmutants with respect to their growth and translocase defects, was eliminated by the alterations in transmembrane segments 2, 3, 4, 7, 9 and 10. Among them, those in segments 3 and 4 had especially severe effects. In contrast, transmembrane segments 1, 5, 6, and 8 were more tolerant to the sequence alterations. The purified protein with an altered transmembrane segment 6 retained, in large measure, the ability to support SecA-dependent preprotein translocation in vitro. These results will help us to further understand how the SecYEG protein translocation channel functions.
