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

Self-assembly of herpesvirus capsids can be accomplished in heterologous expression systems provided all six capsid proteins are present. We have demonstrated the assembly of icosahedral Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) capsids in insect cells using the baculovirus expression system. Using this self-assembly system we investigated whether we could add additional capsid associated proteins and determine their incorporation into the assembled capsid. We chose the capsid vertex-specific component (CVSC) proteins encoded by open reading frames (ORFs) 19 and 32 to test this. This complex sits on the capsid vertex and is important for capsid maturation in herpesvirus-infected cells. Co-immunoprecipitation assays were used to initially confirm a bi-molecular interaction between ORF19 and ORF32. Both proteins also precipitated the triplex proteins of the capsid shell (ORF26 and ORF62) as well as the major capsid protein (ORF25). Capsid immunoprecipitation assays revealed the incorporation of ORF19 as well as ORF32 into assembled capsids. Similar experiments also showed that the incorporation of each protein occurred independent of the other. These studies reveal biochemically how the KSHV CVSC interacts with the capsid shell.
