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

Kinesin-1 dimerizes via the coiled-coil neck domain. In contrast to animal kinesins, neck dimerization of the fungal kinesin-1 NcKin requires additional residues from the hinge. Using chimeric constructs containing or lacking fungal-specific elements, the proximal part of the hinge was shown to stabilize the neck coiled-coil conformation in a complex manner. The conserved fungal kinesin hinge residue W384 caused neck coiled-coil formation in a chimeric NcKin construct, including parts of the human kinesin-1 stalk. The stabilizing effect was retained in a NcKinW384F mutant, suggesting important pi-stacking interactions. Without the stalk, W384 was not sufficient to induce coiled-coil formation, indicating that W384 is part of a cluster of several residues required for neck coiled-coil folding. A W384-less chimera of NcKin and human kinesin possessed a non-coiled-coil neck conformation and showed inhibited activity that could be reactivated when artificial interstrand disulfide bonds were used to stabilize the neck coiled-coil conformation. On the basis of yeast two-hybrid data, we propose that the proximal hinge can bind kinesin's cargo-free tail domain and causes inactivation of kinesin by disrupting the neck coiled-coil conformation.
