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

The GroE chaperonin system facilitates protein folding in an ATP-dependent manner. It has remained unclear why some proteins are obligate clients of the GroE system, whereas other closely related proteins are able to fold efficiently in its absence. Factors that cause folding to be slower affect kinetic partitioning between spontaneous folding and chaperone binding in favor of the latter. One such potential factor is contact order (CO), which is the average separation in sequence between residues that are in contact in the native structure. Here, we generated variants of enhanced green fluorescent protein with different COs using circular permutations. We found that GroE dependence in vitro and in vivo increases with increasing CO. Thus, our results show that CO is relevant not only for folding in vitro of relatively simple model systems but also for chaperonin dependence and folding in vivo.
