Biochemical characterization of DNA-binding proteins from Pyrobaculum aerophilum and Aeropyrum pernix.
Article in Extremophiles : life under extreme conditions, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Several representatives of the Crenarchaeal branch of the Archaea contain highly abundant, small, positively charged proteins exemplified by the Sso7d protein from Sulfolobus solfataricus. These proteins bind to DNA in a non-sequence-specific manner. Using publicly available genomic sequence information, we identified a second class of small Crenarchaeal DNA-binding proteins represented by the Pyrobaculum aerophilum open reading frame 3192-encoded (Pae3192) protein and its paralogs. We investigated the biochemical properties of the Pae3192 protein and an orthologous protein (Ape1322b) from Aeropyrum pernix in side-by-side experiments with the Sso7d protein. We demonstrate that the recombinant Ape1322b, Pae3192 and Sso7d proteins bind to DNA and that the DNA-protein complexes formed are slightly different for each protein. We show that like Sso7d, Pae3192 constrains negative supercoils in DNA. In addition, we show that all three proteins raise the melting temperature of duplex DNA upon binding. Finally, we present the equilibrium affinity constants and kinetic association constants of each protein for single-stranded and double-stranded DNA.
