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

The tertiary structures of human and mouse apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) are comprised of an N-terminal helix bundle and a separate C-terminal domain. To define the possible intramolecular interaction between the N- and the C-terminal domains, we examined the effects on protein stability and lipid-binding properties of exchanging either the C-terminal domain or helix between human and mouse apoA-I. Chemical denaturation experiments demonstrated that replacement of the C-terminal domain or helical segment in human apoA-I with the mouse counterparts largely destabilizes the N-terminal helix bundle. Removal of the C-terminal domain or alpha-helix in human apoA-I had a similar effect on the destabilization of the helix bundle against urea denaturation, indicating that the C-terminal helical segment mainly contributes to stabilizing the N-terminal helix bundle structure in the apoA-I molecule. Consistent with this, KI quenching experiments indicated that removal or replacement of the C-terminal domain or helix in human apoA-I causes Trp residues in the N-terminal domain to become exposed to solvent. Measurements of the heats of binding to egg phosphatidylcholine (PC) vesicles and the kinetics of solubilization of dimyristoyl PC vesicles demonstrated that the destabilized human N-terminal helix bundle can strongly interact with lipids without the hydrophobic C-terminal helix. In addition, site-specific labeling of the N- and C-terminal helices by acrylodan to probe the conformational stability and the spatial proximity of the two domains indicated that the C-terminal helix is located near the N-terminal helix bundle, leading to a relatively less solvent-exposed, more organized conformation of the C-terminal domain. Taken together, these results suggest that interaction between the N- and C-terminal tertiary structure domains in apoA-I modulates the stability and lipid-binding properties of the N-terminal helix bundle.
