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

UVR8 is a recently discovered UV-B photoreceptor with a homodimer as the active state. UV-B perception of an interfacial tryptophan (W285) causes dissociation of the dimer into two functional monomers. Here, we investigate the molecular mechanism behind UV perception by W285 in UVR8. We observed a significant quenching dynamics in about 150 ps within the interfacial four-tryptophan cluster and an unusual resonance energy transfer from the other ten tryptophans to the tryptophan cluster in 1-2 nanoseconds to enhance functional efficiency. With mutation of W285 to F, the quenching dynamics is highly suppressed in this intact mutant dimer and the overall fluorescence intensity dramatically increases by a factor of 6, indicating W285 as a dominant quencher. These results reveal a unique energy transfer mechanism for efficient UV perception and the critical functional role of W285 for primary quenching dynamics for initiating dimer dissociation to trigger the function.
