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 Escherichia coli MukB, MukE, and MukF proteins form a bacterial condensin (MukBEF) that contributes to chromosome management by compacting DNA. MukB is an ATPase and DNA-binding protein of the SMC superfamily; however, the structure and function of non-SMC components, such as MukF, have been less forthcoming. Here, we report the crystal structure of the N-terminal 287 amino acids of MukF at 2.9 A resolution. This region folds into a winged-helix domain and an extended coiled-coil domain that self-associate to form a stable, doubly domain-swapped dimer. Protein dissection and affinity purification data demonstrate that the region of MukF C-terminal to this fragment binds to MukE and MukB. Our findings, together with sequence analyses, indicate that MukF is a kleisin subunit for E. coli condensin and suggest a means by which it may organize the MukBEF assembly.
