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

Morphogenesis of herpesviral virions is initiated in the nucleus but completed in the cytoplasm. Mature virions contain more than 25 tegument proteins many of which perform both nuclear and cytoplasmic functions suggesting they shuttle between these compartments. While nuclear import of herpesviral proteins was shown to be crucial for viral propagation, active nuclear export and its functional impact are still poorly understood. To systematically analyze nuclear export of tegument proteins present in virions of Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), the Nuclear EXport Trapped by RAPamycin (NEX-TRAP) was applied. Nine of the 22 investigated HSV1 tegument proteins including pUL4, pUL7, pUL11, pUL13, pUL21, pUL37d11, pUL47, pUL48 and pUS2 as well as 2 out of 6 EBV orthologs harbor nuclear export activity. A functional leucine-rich nuclear export sequence (NES) recognized by the export factor CRM1/Xpo1 was identified in six of them. The comparison between experimental and bioinformatic data indicates that experimental validation of predicted NESs is required. Mutational analysis of the pUL48/VP16 NES revealed its importance for herpesviral propagation. Together our data suggest that nuclear export is an important feature of the herpesviral life cycle required to co-ordinate nuclear and cytoplasmic processes.
