Structural complementation of the catalytic domain of pseudomonas exotoxin A.
Article in Journal of molecular biology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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 catalytic moiety of Pseudomonas exotoxin A (domain III or PE3) inhibits protein synthesis by ADP-ribosylation of eukaryotic elongation factor 2. PE3 is widely used as a cytocidal payload in receptor-targeted protein toxin conjugates. We have designed and characterized catalytically inactive fragments of PE3 that are capable of structural complementation. We dissected PE3 at an extended loop and fused each fragment to one subunit of a heterospecific coiled coil. In vitro ADP-ribosylation and protein translation assays demonstrate that the resulting fusions-supplied exogenously as genetic elements or purified protein fragments-had no significant catalytic activity or effect on protein synthesis individually but, in combination, catalyzed the ADP-ribosylation of eukaryotic elongation factor 2 and inhibited protein synthesis. Although complementing PE3 fragments are catalytically less efficient than intact PE3 in cell-free systems, co-expression in live cells transfected with transgenes encoding the toxin fusions inhibits protein synthesis and causes cell death comparably as intact PE3. Complementation of split PE3 offers a direct extension of the immunotoxin approach to generate bispecific agents that may be useful to target complex phenotypes.
