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

Truncated hemoglobins constitute a large family, present in bacteria, in archaea and in eukaryotes. However, a majority of physiological functions of these proteins remains to be elucidated. Identification and characterization of a novel role of truncated hemoglobins in the model alga provides a framework for a more complete understanding of their biological functions. Here, we use quantitative RT-PCR to show that three truncated hemoglobins of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, THB1, THB2 and THB12, are induced under conditions of depleted sulfur (S) supply. THB1 underexpression results in the decrease in cell size, as well in levels of proteins, chlorophylls and mRNA of several S-responsive genes under S starvation. We provide evidence that knock-down of THB1 enhances NO production under S deprivation. In S-deprived cells, a subset of S limitation-responsive genes is controlled by NO in THB1-dependent pathway. Moreover, we demonstrate that deficiency for S represses the nitrate reduction and that THB1 is involved in this control. Thus, our data support the idea that in S-deprived cells THB1 plays a dual role in NO detoxification and in coordinating sulfate limitation with nitrate assimilation. This study uncovers a new function for the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii THB1 in the control of proper response to S deprivation.
