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 influenza A M2 protein forms a proton channel for virus infection and mediates virus assembly and budding. While extensive structural information is known about the transmembrane helix and an adjacent amphipathic helix, the conformation of the N-terminal ectodomain and the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail remains largely unknown. Using two-dimensional (2D) magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR, we have investigated the secondary structure and dynamics of full-length M2 (M2FL) and found them to depend on the membrane composition. In 2D (13)C DARR correlation spectra, 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC)-bound M2FL exhibits several peaks at β-sheet chemical shifts, which result from water-exposed extramembrane residues. In contrast, M2FL bound to cholesterol-containing membranes gives predominantly α-helical chemical shifts. Two-dimensional J-INADEQUATE spectra and variable-temperature (13)C spectra indicate that DMPC-bound M2FL is highly dynamic while the cholesterol-containing membranes significantly immobilize the protein at physiological temperature. Chemical-shift prediction for various secondary-structure models suggests that the β-strand is located at the N-terminus of the DMPC-bound protein, while the cytoplasmic domain is unstructured. This prediction is confirmed by the 2D DARR spectrum of the ectodomain-truncated M2(21-97), which no longer exhibits β-sheet chemical shifts in the DMPC-bound state. We propose that the M2 conformational change results from the influence of cholesterol, and the increased helicity of M2FL in cholesterol-rich membranes may be relevant for M2 interaction with the matrix protein M1 during virus assembly and budding. The successful determination of the β-strand location suggests that chemical-shift prediction is a promising approach for obtaining structural information of disordered proteins before resonance assignment.
