Effect of HPr phosphorylation on structure, dynamics, and interactions in the course of transcriptional control.

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.
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 serine46-phosphorylated form of the bacterial protein HPr fulfils an essential function in carbon catabolite repression (CCR). Using molecular dynamics (MD) we studied the effect of Ser46 phosphorylation on the molecular properties of HPr and its capability to act as the co-repressor of carbon catabolite protein A (CcpA). The calculated pK (a) values for a representative set of HPr(Ser46P) structures indicate that the phosphate group of HPr(Ser46P) exists predominantly in the unprotonated form under neutral conditions. A hydrogen bond detected in HPr(Ser46P) between one phosphate-group oxygen and a side-chain hydrogen of Asn43-an amino acid conserved in all HPr proteins of Gram-positive bacteria that regulate their carbon consumption by CCR-might fulfil an important role in CcpA-HPr(Ser46P) complex formation. MD simulations show that the Ser46P-Asn43 hydrogen bond present in the unbound structure is replaced by intermolecular interactions upon complex formation. The degree to which amino acids in the CcpA-HPr(Ser46P) interface contribute to cofactor binding was analyzed by in silico alanine scanning. Lys307, Arg303, Asp296, Val300, and Tyr295 of CcpA were identified as important amino acids for the CcpA-HPr(Ser46P) interaction. Three of these residues are directly involved in sensing the correct phosphorylation state at His15(HPr) and Ser46(HPr). A substitution of interface residues Val319, Val314, Ser316, Leu321 and Gln320 by alanine showed that these amino acids, which contact helix alpha2 of HPr(Ser46P), play a less prominent role for complex formation.
