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

Escherichia coli chaperonin, GroEL, helps proteins fold under nonpermissive conditions. During the reaction cycle, GroEL undergoes allosteric transitions in response to binding of a substrate protein (SP), ATP, and the cochaperonin GroES. Using coarse-grained representations of the GroEL and GroES structures, we explore the link between allosteric transitions and the folding of a model SP, a de novo-designed four-helix bundle protein, with low spontaneous yield. The ensemble of GroEL-bound SP is less structured than the bulk misfolded structures. Upon binding, which kinetically occurs in two stages, the SP loses not only native tertiary contacts but also experiences a decrease in helical content. During multivalent binding and the subsequent ATP-driven transition of GroEL the SP undergoes force-induced stretching. Upon encapsulation, which occurs upon GroES binding, the SP finds itself in a "hydrophilic" cavity in which it can reach the folded conformation. Surprisingly, we find that the yield of the native state in the expanded GroEL cavity is relatively small even after it remains in it for twice the spontaneous folding time. Thus, in accord with the iterative annealing mechanism, multiple rounds of binding, partial unfolding, and release of the SP are required to enhance the yield of the folded SP.
