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

Multiprotein complexes play essential roles in all cells and X-ray crystallography can provide unparalleled insight into their structure and function. Many of these complexes are believed to be sufficiently stable for structural biology studies, but the production of protein-protein complexes using recombinant technologies is still labor-intensive. We have explored several strategies for the identification and cloning of heterodimers and heterotrimers that are compatible with the high-throughput (HTP) structural biology pipeline developed for single proteins. Two approaches are presented and compared which resulted in co-expression of paired genes from a single expression vector. Native operons encoding predicted interacting proteins were selected from a repertoire of genomes, and cloned directly to expression vector. In an alternative approach, Helicobacter pylori proteins predicted to interact strongly were cloned, each associated with translational control elements, then linked into an artificial operon. Proteins were then expressed and purified by standard HTP protocols, resulting to date in the structure determination of two H. pylori complexes.
