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

We demonstrate the feasibility and practical limitations of using steady-state anisotropy to determine distances from fluorescence homotransfer in the context of a protein of known crystal structure. Eight double mutants of T4 lysozyme spanning the distance range between 20 A and 50 A were labeled with a methanethiosulfonate derivative of fluorescein. The measured distances in liquid solution are in agreement with those determined from dipolar coupling between spin labels in the frozen state. They can be interpreted in the context of the crystal structure after accounting for the probe linking arm. Overall, the results establish the necessary calibration for this spectroscopic ruler. The measurement of similar distance trends using independent probes sets the stage for the complementary use of homotransfer and dipolar coupling in the determination of static structures and detection of conformational changes.
