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

Bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) is a valuable tool to detect protein-protein interactions. BRET utilizes bioluminescent and fluorescent protein tags with compatible emission and excitation properties, making it possible to examine resonance energy transfer when the tags are in close proximity (<10 nm) as a typical result of protein-protein interactions. Here we describe a protocol for detecting BRET from two known protein binding partners (Gαi1 and RGS14) in HEK 293 cells using Renilla luciferase and yellow fluorescent protein tags. We discuss the calculation of the acceptor/donor ratio as well as net BRET and demonstrate that BRET can be used as a platform to investigate the regulation of protein-protein interactions in live cells in real time.
