Proline 35 of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Vpr regulates the integrity of the N-terminal helix and the incorporation of Vpr into virus particles and supports the replication of R5-tropic HIV-1 in human lymphoid tissue ex vivo.

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

Mutational analysis of the four conserved proline residues in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Vpr reveals that only Pro-35 is required for efficient replication of R5-tropic, but not of X4-tropic, viruses in human lymphoid tissue (HLT) cultivated ex vivo. While Vpr-mediated apoptosis and G(2) cell cycle arrest, as well as the expression and subcellular localization of Vpr, were independent, the capacity for encapsidation of Vpr into budding virions was dependent on Pro-35. (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance data suggest that mutation of Pro-35 causes a conformational change in the hydrophobic core of the molecule, whose integrity is required for the encapsidation of Vpr, and thus, Pro-35 supports the replication of R5-tropic HIV-1 in HLT.
