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

Molecules of single proteins, echoforms, can be distributed between two (or more) subcellular locations, a phenomenon which we refer to as dual targeting or dual localization. The yeast aconitase gene ACO1 (778 amino acids), encodes a single translation product that is nonetheless dual localized to the cytosol and mitochondria by a reverse translocation mechanism. The solved crystal structure of aconitase isolated from porcine heart mitochondria shows that it has four domains. The first three tightly associated N-terminal domains are tethered to the larger C-terminal fourth domain (C-terminal amino acids 517-778). We have previously shown that the aconitase C terminal domain constitutes an independent dual targeting signal when fused to mitochondria-targeted passenger-proteins. We show that the aconitase N and C-terminal domains interact and that this interaction is important for efficient aconitase post translational import into mitochondria and for aconitase dual targeting (relative levels of aconitase echoforms). Our results suggest a "chaperone-like function" of the C terminal domain towards the N terminal domains which can be modulated by Ssa1/2 (cytosolic Hsp70).
