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

RNase H plays an essential role in the replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Therefore, it is a promising target for drug development. However, the identification of HIV-1 RNase H inhibitors (RHIs) has been hampered by the open morphology of its active site, the limited number of available RNase H crystal structures in complex with inhibitors, and the fact that, due to the high concentrations of Mg(2+) needed for protein stability, HIV-1 RNase H is not suitable for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) inhibitor studies. We recently showed that the RNase H domains of HIV-1 and prototype foamy virus (PFV) reverse transcriptases (RTs) exhibit a high degree of structural similarity. Thus, we examined whether PFV RNase H can serve as an HIV-1 RNase H model for inhibitor interaction studies. Five HIV-1 RHIs inhibited PFV RNase H activity at low-micromolar concentrations similar to those of HIV-1 RNase H, suggesting pocket similarity of the RNase H domains. NMR titration experiments with the PFV RNase H domain and the RHI RDS1643 (6-[1-(4-fluorophenyl)methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)]-2,4-dioxo-5-hexenoic acid ethyl ester) were performed to determine its binding site. Based on these results and previous data, in silico docking analysis showed a putative RDS1643 binding region that reaches into the PFV RNase H active site. Structural overlays were performed with HIV-1 and PFV RNase H to propose the RDS1643 binding site in HIV-1 RNase H. Our results suggest that this approach can be used to establish PFV RNase H as a model system for HIV-1 RNase H in order to identify putative inhibitor binding sites in HIV-1 RNase H.
