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

This review of the current literature on mutations in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) of the rhodopsin-related family intends to draw inferences from amino acid sequences for single receptors and multiple sequence alignments with regard to the molecular architecture of this class of receptors. For this purpose a comprehensive list of mutations within the transmembrane helical regions (TMs; over 390 mutations from 38 different receptor subtypes) and their effects on function was compiled, and an alignment of known GPCR sequences (over 150 separate sequences) was made. Regions most prominently involved in ligand binding are located in TMs 3, 5, 6, and 7. Position 3.32 in TM3 is occupied by a D in all biogenic amine receptors (sequence conservation) but may be occupied by uncharged residues in other receptors while its role in ligand binding is analogous (function conservation). TMs 5, 6, and 7 display considerable sequence conservation throughout the majority of GPCRs investigated, but not necessarily at those positions involved in ligand binding. However, considerable function conservation is observed for positions 5.42 (frequently hydrophilic), 5.46 (small amino acids required for agonist binding to "small ligand" receptors), 6.52 and 7.39 (high variability), and 7.43 (frequently aromatic). A general conclusion of this review is that there is overwhelming conservation of structure-function correlates among GPCRs. Thus, it is now possible to cross-correlate the results of mutagenesis studies between GPCRs of different subfamilies, and to use those results to predict the function of specific residues in new GPCR sequences.
