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

Agnoprotein is one of the key regulatory proteins of polyomaviruses, including JCV, BKV and SV40 and is required for a productive viral life cycle. We have recently reported that agnoprotein forms stable dimer/oligomers mediated by a predicted amphipathic α-helix, spanning amino acids (aa), 17 to 42. Deletion of the α-helix renders a replication incompetent virus. Here, we have further characterized this region by a systematic deletion and substitution mutagenesis and demonstrated that a Leu/Ile/Phe-rich domain, (spanning aa 28-39) within α-helix is indispensable for agnoprotein structure and function. Deletion of aa 30-37 severely affects the dimer/oligomer formation and stable expression of the protein. Mutagenesis data also indicate that the residues, 34-36, may be involved in regulation of the splicing events of JCV transcripts. Collectively, these data suggest that the Leu/Ile/Phe-rich domain plays critical roles in agnoprotein function and thus represents a potential target for developing novel therapeutics against JCV infections.
