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

ALG-2 interacting protein X (ALIX) links HIV-1 Gag to the components of ESCRT-III. HIV-1 engages the ALIX via its nucleocapsid and LYPXnL motif in p6. Overexpression of ALIX corrects the release defect of PTAP deleted HIV-1 via LYPXnL/ALIX pathway. However, HIV-1 subtype C lacks the LYPXnL motif and hence cannot employ LYPXnL/ALIX mechanism. Though the preferential occurrences of PYXE insertion in HIV-1 C p6 is predicted to restore the ALIX binding site there is no functional proof to support these observations. In this study we show that HIV-1 construct with subtype C p6 having PTAP deletion and PYRE insertion (pNL-INp6ΔPTAP/PYRE) could respond to ALIX overexpression. Notably, conserved Phenyl alanine residue (F676) in ALIX was critical for ALIX mediated release of pNL-INp6ΔPTAP/PYRE implying the critical role of this hydrophobic patch in ALIX recruitment. In addition, we show that Nedd4-1 could also correct the release defect of pNL-INp6ΔPTAP/PYRE. Moreover, Nedd4-1 was more robust compared to ALIX in its ability to stimulate the release of pNL-INp6ΔPTAP/PYRE. Replication kinetic data highlights the positive effect of PYRE insertion on virus replication. In summary, our data reveals the functional role of PYRE insertion towards the cooperative mechanism of ALIX/Nedd4-1 in virus release in the absence of PTAP/Tsg101 pathway.
