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

PAA2/HMA8 (P-type ATPase of Arabidopsis/Heavy-metal-associated 8) is a thylakoid located copper (Cu)-transporter in Arabidopsis thaliana. In tandem with PAA1/HMA6, which is located in the inner chloroplast envelope, it supplies Cu to plastocyanin (PC), an essential cuproenzyme of the photosynthetic machinery. We investigated whether the chloroplast Cu transporters are affected by Cu addition to the growth media. Immunoblots showed that PAA2 protein abundance decreased significantly and specifically when Cu in the media was increased, while PAA1 remained unaffected. The function of SPL7, the transcriptional regulator of Cu homeostasis, was not required for this regulation of PAA2 protein abundance and Cu addition did not affect PAA2 transcript levels, as determined by qRT-PCR. We used the translational inhibitor cycloheximide to analyze turnover and observed that the stability of the PAA2 protein was decreased in plants grown with elevated Cu. Interestingly, PAA2 protein abundance was significantly increased in paa1 mutants, in which the Cu content in the chloroplast is half of that of the wild-type, due to impaired Cu import into the organelle. In contrast in a pc2 insertion mutant, which has strongly reduced plastocyanin expression, the PAA2 protein levels were low regardless of Cu addition to the growth media. Together, these data indicate that plastid Cu levels control PAA2 stability and that plastocyanin, which is the target of PAA2 mediated Cu delivery in thylakoids, is a major determinant of this regulatory mechanism.
