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 majority of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) from gram-negative bacteria and many of mitochondria and chloroplasts are β-barrels. Insertion and assembly of these proteins are catalyzed by the Omp85 protein family in a seemingly conserved process. All members of this family exhibit a characteristic N-terminal polypeptide-transport-associated (POTRA) and a C-terminal 16-stranded β-barrel domain. In plants, two phylogenetically distinct and essential Omp85's exist in the chloroplast outer membrane, namely Toc75-III and Toc75-V. Whereas Toc75-V, similar to the mitochondrial Sam50, is thought to possess the original bacterial function, its homolog, Toc75-III, evolved to the pore-forming unit of the TOC translocon for preprotein import. In all current models of OMP biogenesis and preprotein translocation, a topology of Omp85 with the POTRA domain in the periplasm or intermembrane space is assumed. Using self-assembly GFP-based in vivo experiments and in situ topology studies by electron cryotomography, we show that the POTRA domains of both Toc75-III and Toc75-V are exposed to the cytoplasm. This unexpected finding explains many experimental observations and requires a reevaluation of current models of OMP biogenesis and TOC complex function.
