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

Pleotropic drug resistant protein 5 (Pdr5p) is a plasma membrane ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter and the major drug efflux pump in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The Pdr5p family of fungal transporters possesses a number of structural features significantly different from other modeled or crystallized ABC transporters, which include a reverse topology, an atypical ATP-binding site, a very low sequence similarity in the transmembrane section and long linkers between domains. These features present a considerable hurdle in molecular modeling studies of these important transporters. Here, we report the creation of an atomic model of Pdr5p based on a combination of homology modeling and ab initio methods, incorporating information from consensus transmembrane segment prediction, residue lipophilicity, and sequence entropy. Reported mutations in the transmembrane substrate-binding pocket that altered drug-resistance were used to validate the model, and one mutation that changed the communication pattern between transmembrane and nucleotide-binding domains was used in model improvement. The predictive power of the model was demonstrated experimentally by the increased sensitivity of yeast mutants to clotrimazole having alanine substitutions for Thr1213 and Gln1253, which are predicted to be in the substrate-binding pocket, without reducing the amount of Pdr5p in the plasma membrane. The quality and reliability of our model are discussed in the context of various approaches used for modeling different parts of the structure.
