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 N-terminal cytoplasmic region of the Kv11.1a potassium channel contains a Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) domain that is essential for the unique slow deactivation gating kinetics of the channel. The PAS domain has also been implicated in the assembly and stabilization of the assembled tetrameric channel, with many clinical mutants in the PAS domain resulting in reduced stability of the domain and reduced trafficking. Here, we use quantitative Western blotting to show that the PAS domain is not required for normal channel trafficking nor for subunit-subunit interactions, and it is not necessary for stabilizing assembled channels. However, when the PAS domain is present, the N-Cap amphipathic helix must also be present for channels to traffic to the cell membrane. Serine scan mutagenesis of the N-Cap amphipathic helix identified Leu-15, Ile-18, and Ile-19 as residues critical for the stabilization of full-length proteins when the PAS domain is present. Furthermore, mutant cycle analysis experiments support recent crystallography studies, indicating that the hydrophobic face of the N-Cap amphipathic helix interacts with a surface-exposed hydrophobic patch on the core of the PAS domain to stabilize the structure of this critical gating domain. Our data demonstrate that the N-Cap amphipathic helix is critical for channel stability and trafficking.
