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

Human APOBEC3F (hA3F) and human APOBEC3G (hA3G) are potent anti-human immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV) host factors that suppress viral replication by hypermutating the viral genome, inhibiting reverse transcription, and hindering integration. To overcome hA3F and hA3G, HIV-1 encodes Vif, which binds and targets these host proteins for proteasomal degradation. Previously, we reported that the hA3F-Vif interactions that lead to hA3F degradation are located in the region comprising amino acids 283 to 300. We have now performed mutational analysis of this region and found that the (289)EFLARH(294) amino acids contribute to hA3F-Vif binding and are critical for A3F's sensitivity to Vif. Mutants in which E289 is mutated significantly increase hA3F's ability to inhibit viral infectivity in the presence of Vif, and coimmunoprecipitation assays show that binding of Vif to the E289K mutant is decreased. We examined the role of the EFLARH sequence in other A3 proteins, including human A3C (hA3C), human A3DE (hA3DE), African green monkey A3F (agmA3F), and rhesus macaque A3F (rhA3F). hA3C, hA3DE, and agmA3F were all susceptible to degradation induced by HIV-1 Vif, while rhA3F was not. Mutagenesis of the glutamate in the EFLARH sites of hA3C, hA3DE, and agmA3F decreases the susceptibilities of these proteins to Vif-induced degradation. Together, these results indicate that the EFLARH region in hA3F, hA3C, hA3DE, and agmA3F interacts with HIV-1 Vif and that this interaction plays a role in the Vif-mediated proteasomal degradation of these A3 proteins. These studies identify a conserved region in 3 of 7 human A3 proteins that is critical for degradation mediated by HIV-1 Vif and provide structural insights into the hA3F-Vif interactions that could facilitate the development of a novel class of anti-HIV agents.
