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 functional diversity of cytoplasmic dynein is in part attributed to multiple interactions between noncatalytic dynein subunits and an array of regulatory proteins. This study focuses on the interaction between the dynein intermediate chain subunit (IC) and a dynein regulator protein (NudE). We use isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR spectroscopy to map their interacting sections to their respective N-terminal domains, which are predicted to form dimeric coiled-coils. Interestingly, the specific residues within IC that interact with NudE are a subset of the bi-segmental binding region reported for p150(Glued), a subunit of the dynein activator protein dynactin. Although the IC binding domains of both NudE and p150(Glued) form dimeric coiled-coils and bind IC at a common site, we observe distinct binding modes for each regulatory protein: 1) NudE binds region 1 of the bi-segmental binding footprint of p150(Glued), whereas p150(Glued) requires regions 1 and 2 to match the binding affinity of NudE with region 1 alone. 2) Compared with unbound IC, NudE-bound IC shows a slight increase in flexibility in region 2, in contrast to the increase in ordered structure observed for p150(Glued)-bound IC (Morgan, J. L., Song, Y., and Barbar, E. (2011) J. Biol. Chem. 286, 39349-39359). 3) Although NudE has a higher affinity for the common binding segment on IC, when all three proteins are in solution, IC preferentially binds p150(Glued). These results underscore the importance of a bi-segmental binding region of IC and disorder in region 2 and flanking linkers in selecting which regulatory protein binds IC.
