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

Uba5 is the smallest ubiquitin-like molecule-activating enzyme and contains an adenylation domain and a C-terminal region. This enzyme only exists in multicellular organisms. The mechanism through which the enzyme recognizes and activates ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (Ufm1) remains unknown. In this study, Uba5 adenylation domains with different C-terminal region lengths were cloned, expressed and purified. The results of an in vitro truncation assay suggest that Uba5 residues 57-363 comprise the minimal fragment required for the high-efficiency activation of Ufm1. Crystallization of Uba5 residues 57-363 was performed at 277 K using PEG 3350 as the precipitant, and crystals optimized by microseeding diffracted to 2.95 Å resolution, with unit-cell parameters a=b=97.66, c=144.83 Å, α=β=90, γ=120°. There is one molecule in the asymmetric unit; the Matthews coefficient and the solvent content were calculated to be 2.93 Å3 Da(-1) and 58.1%, respectively.
