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

Auxin Binding Protein 1 (ABP1) is ubiquitous in green plants. It binds the phytohormone auxin with high specificity and affinity, but its role in auxin-induced processes is unknown. To understand the proposed receptor function of ABP1 we carried out a detailed molecular modeling study. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that ABP1 can adopt two conformations differing primarily in the position of the C-terminus and that one of them is stabilized by auxin binding. This is in agreement with experimental evidence that auxin induces changes at the ABP1 C-terminus. Simulations of ligand egress from ABP1 revealed three main routes by which an auxin molecule can enter or leave the ABP1 binding site. Assuming the previously proposed orientation of ABP1 to plant cell membranes, one of the routes leads to the membrane and the other two to ABP1's aqueous surroundings. A network of hydrogen-bonded water molecules leading from the bulk water to the zinc-coordinated ligands in the ABP1 binding site was formed in all simulations. Water entrance into the zinc coordination sphere occurred simultaneously with auxin egress. These results suggest that the hydrogen-bonded water molecules may assist in protonation and deprotonation of auxin molecules and their egress from the ABP1 binding site.
