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

Cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) is the terminal enzyme of the respiratory chain and couples energetically the reduction of oxygen to water to proton pumping across the membrane. The results from previous studies showed that proton pumping can be uncoupled from the O2-reduction reaction by replacement of one single residue, Asn-139 by Asp (N139D), located approximately 30 A from the catalytic site, in the D-proton pathway. The uncoupling was correlated with an increase in the pK(a) of an internal proton donor, Glu-286, from approximately 9.4 to >11. Here, we show that replacement of the acidic residue, Asp-132 by Asn in the N139D CcO (D132N/N139D double-mutant CcO) results in restoration of the Glu-286 pK(a) to the original value and recoupling of the proton pump during steady-state turnover. Furthermore, a kinetic investigation of the specific reaction steps in the D132N/N139D double-mutant CcO showed that proton pumping is sustained even if proton uptake from solution, through the D-pathway, is slowed. However, during single-turnover oxidation of the fully reduced CcO the P --> F transition, which does not involve electron transfer to the catalytic site, was not coupled to proton pumping. The results provide insights into the mechanism of proton pumping by CcO and the structural elements involved in this process.
