A Unique Light-Driven Proton Transportation Signal in Halorhodopsin from Natronomonas pharaonis.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Halorhodopsin (HR) is a seven-transmembrane retinylidene protein from haloarchaea that is commonly known to function as a light-driven inward chloride pump. However, previous studies have indicated that despite the general characteristics that most HRs share, HRs from distinct species differ in many aspects. We present indium-tin-oxide-based photocurrent measurements that reveal a light-induced signal generated by proton release that is observed solely in NpHR via purified protein-based assays, demonstrating that indeed HRs are not all identical. We conducted mutagenesis studies on several conserved residues that are considered critical for chloride stability among HRs. Intriguingly, the photocurrent signals were eliminated after specific point mutations. We propose an NpHR light-driven, cytoplasmic-side proton circulation model to explain the unique light-induced photocurrent recorded in NpHR. Notably, the photocurrent and various photocycle intermediates were recorded simultaneously. This approach provides a high-resolution method for further investigations of the proton-assisted chloride translocation mechanism.
