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 HIV-1 accessory protein Nef is N-terminally myristoylated, and this post-translational modification is essential for Nef function in AIDS progression. Transfer of a myristate group from myristoyl coenzyme A to Nef occurs cotranslationally and is catalyzed by human N-myristoyltransferase 1 (NMT). To investigate the conformational effects of myristoylation on Nef structure as well as to probe the nature of the Nef:NMT complex, we investigated various forms of Nef with hydrogen exchange mass spectrometry. Conformational changes in Nef were not detected as a result of myristoylation, and NMT had no effect on deuterium uptake by Nef in a myrNef:NMT complex. However, myrNef binding did have an effect on NMT deuterium uptake. Major HX differences in NMT were primarily located around the active site, with more subtle differences, at the longer time points, across the structure. At the shortest time point, significant differences between the two states were observed in two regions which interact strongly with the phosphate groups of coenzyme A. On the basis of our results, we propose a model of the Nef:NMT complex in which only the myristoyl moiety holds the two proteins together in complex and speculate that perhaps NMT chaperones Nef to the membrane and thereby protects the myristic acid group from the cytosol rather than Nef operating through a myristoyl switch mechanism.
