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 assignment of the aliphatic (13)C resonances of trimeric Bacillus Subtilis chorismate mutase, a protein with a molecular mass of 44 kDa, consisting of three 127-residue monomers is presented by use of two-dimensional (2D) (13)C-start and (13)C-observe NMR experiments. These experiments start with (13)C excitation and end with (13)C observation while relying on the long transverse relaxation times of (13)C spins in uniformly deuterated and (13)C,(15)N-labeled large proteins. Gains in sensitivity are achieved by the use of a paramagnetic relaxation enhancement agent to reduce (13)C T(1) relaxation times with little effect on (13)C T(2) relaxation times. Such 2D (13)C-only NMR experiments circumvent problems associated with the application of conventional experiments for side-chain assignment to proteins of larger sizes, for instance, the absence or low concentration of the side-chain (1)H spins, the transfer of the side-chain spin polarization to the (1)H(N) spins for signal acquisition, or the necessity of a quantitative reprotonation of the methyl moieties in the otherwise fully deuterated side-chains. We demonstrate that having obtained a nearly complete assignment of the side-chain aliphatic (13)C resonances, the side-chain (1)H chemical shifts can be assigned in a semiautomatic fashion using 3D (15)N-resolved and (13)C-resolved NOESY experiments measured with a randomly partially protonated protein sample. We also discuss perspectives for structure determination of larger proteins by using novel strategies which are based on the (1)H,(1)H NOEs in combination with multiple residual dipolar couplings between adjacent (13)C spins determined with 2D (13)C-only experiments.
