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 roadblock/LC7 dynein light chain is a ubiquitous component of all dyneins and is essential for many diverse processes including proper axonal transport and dendrite growth. In addition, LC7 functions in non-dynein transcriptional activation of the transforming growth factor-beta complex. Crystal structures of Drosophila melanogaster LC7 in the apo form and in complex with a segment of the disordered N-terminal domain of dynein intermediate chain (IC) provide the first definitive identification of the IC sequence recognized by LC7. The site, confirmed by isothermal titration calorimetry studies, overlaps the IC sequence considered in the literature to be an IC self-association domain. The IC peptide binds as two amphipathic helices that lie along an extensive hydrophobic cleft on LC7 and ends with a polar side-chain interaction network that includes conserved residues from both proteins. The LC7 recognition sequence on IC and its interface with LC7 are well conserved and are, thus, likely representative of all IC x LC7 structures. Interestingly, the position of bound IC in the IC x LC7 complex mimics a helix that is integrated into the primary structure in distantly related LC7 homologs. The IC x LC7 structure further shows that the naturally occurring robl(Z) deletion mutation contains the majority of the IC binding site and suggests that promotion of IC binding by phosphorylation of LC7 is an indirect effect.
