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

AtPep1 is a 23-aa endogenous peptide elicitor from Arabidopsis leaves that signals the activation of components of the innate immune response against pathogens. Here, we report the isolation of an AtPep1 receptor from the surface of Arabidopsis suspension-cultured cells. An (125)I-labeled AtPep1 analog interacted with suspension-cultured Arabidopsis with a K(d) of 0.25 nM, and an (125)I-labeled azido-Cys-AtPep1 photoaffinity analog specifically labeled a membrane-associated protein of approximately 170 kDa. The labeled protein was purified to homogeneity, and its tryptic peptides were identified as gene At1g73080, which encodes a leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase, here called PEPR1. Verification of the binding protein as the receptor for AtPep1 was established by demonstrating the loss of function of microsomal membranes of two SALK insertional mutants and by a gain in function of the alkalinization response to AtPep1 by tobacco suspension-cultured cells expressing the At1g73080 transgene. Synthetic homologs of AtPep1, deduced from the C termini of six known paralogs of PROPEP1, were biologically active and were competitors of the interaction of an AtPep1 radiolabeled analog with the receptor. The data are consistent with a role for PEPR1 as the receptor for AtPep1 to amplify innate immunity in response to pathogen attacks.
