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 M2 protein of the influenza A virus acts both as a drug-sensitive proton channel and mediates virus budding through membrane scission. The segment responsible for causing membrane curvature is an amphipathic helix in the cytoplasmic domain of the protein. Here, we use (31)P and (13)C solid-state NMR to examine M2-induced membrane curvature. M2(22-46), which includes only the transmembrane (TM) helix, and M2(21-61), which contains an additional amphipathic helix, are studied. (31)P chemical shift lineshapes indicate that M2(21-61) causes a high-curvature isotropic phase to both cholesterol-rich virus-mimetic membranes and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine bilayers, whereas M2(22-46) has minimal effect. The lamellar and isotropic domains have distinct (31)P isotropic chemical shifts, indicating perturbation of the lipid headgroup conformation by the amphipathic helix. (31)P- and (13)C-detected (1)H T(2) relaxation and two-dimensional peptide-lipid correlation spectra show that M2(21-61) preferentially binds to the high-curvature domain. (31)P linewidths indicate that the isotropic vesicles induced by M2(21-61) are 10-35 nm in diameter, and the virus-mimetic vesicles are smaller than the 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine vesicles. A strong correlation is found between high membrane curvature and weak drug-binding ability of the TM helix. Thus, the M2 amphipathic helix causes membrane curvature, which in turn perturbs the TM helix conformation, abolishing drug binding. These NMR experiments are applicable to other curvature-inducing membrane proteins such as fusion proteins and antimicrobial peptides.
