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

Phototropins are plant blue-light photoreceptors containing two light-, oxygen-, or voltage-sensitive (LOV) domains and a C-terminal kinase domain. The two LOV domains bind noncovalently flavin mononucleotide as a chromophore. We investigated the photocycle of fast-recovery mutant LOV2-I403V from Arabidopsis phototropin 2 by step-scan Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The reaction of the triplet excited state of flavin with cysteine takes place with a time constant of 3 micros to yield the covalent adduct. Our data provide evidence that the flavin is unprotonated in the productive triplet state, disfavoring an ionic mechanism of bond formation. An intermediate adduct species was evident that displayed changes in secondary structure in the helix or loop region, and relaxed with a time constant of 120 micros. In milliseconds, the final adduct state is formed by further alterations of secondary structure, including beta-sheets. A comparison with wild-type adduct spectra shows that the mutation does not interfere with the functionality of the domain. All signals originate from within the LOV domain, because the construct does not comprise the adjacent Jalpha helix required for signal transduction. The contribution of early and late adduct intermediates to signal transfer to the Jalpha helix outside of the domain is discussed.
