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 Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) is a membrane protein, which catalyzes the counter transport of Na(+) and Ca(2+) ions across the plasma membrane, playing a key role in the maintenance of the intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis in various cell types. NCX consists of a transmembrane part and a large intracellular loop. The activation of the NCX transport function requires the binding of Ca(2+) to two tandem C2 domains, CBD1 and CBD2, which are an integral part of the exchanger's intracellular loop. Although high-resolution structures of individual CBD1 and CBD2 are available, their interdomain structure and dynamics and the atomic level mechanism of allosteric Ca(2+)-regulation remains unknown. Here, we use solution NMR spectroscopy to study the interdomain dynamics of CBD12, a 32 kDa construct that contains both the CBD1 and CBD2 domains connected by a short linker. Analysis of NMR residual dipolar couplings shows that CBD12 assumes on average an elongated shape both in the absence and in the presence of Ca(2+). NMR (15)N relaxation data of the Apo state indicate that the two domains sample a wide range of relative arrangements on the nanosecond time scale. These arrangements comprise significantly non-linear interdomain orientations. Binding of Ca(2+) to CBD1 significantly restricts the interdomain flexibility, stabilizing a more rigid elongated conformation. These findings suggest a molecular mechanism for the role of CBD12 in the function of NCX.
