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

Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (Sod1) is a critical antioxidant enzyme that rids the cell of reactive oxygen through the redox cycling of a catalytic copper ion provided by its copper chaperone (Ccs). Ccs must first acquire this copper ion, directly or indirectly, from the influx copper transporter, Ctr1. The three proteins of this transport pathway ensure careful trafficking of copper ions from cell entry to target delivery, but the intricacies remain undefined. Biochemical examination of each step in the pathway determined that the activation of the target (Sod1) regulates the Ccs·Ctr1 interaction. Ccs stably interacts with the cytosolic C-terminal tail of Ctr1 (Ctr1c) in a copper-dependent manner. This interaction becomes tripartite upon the addition of an engineered immature form of Sod1 creating a stable Cu(I)-Ctr1c·Ccs·Sod1 heterotrimer in solution. This heterotrimer can also be made by the addition of a preformed Sod1·Ccs heterodimer to Cu(I)-Ctr1c, suggestive of multiple routes to the same destination. Only complete Sod1 activation (i.e. active site copper delivery and intra-subunit disulfide bond formation) breaks the Sod1·Ccs·Ctr1c complex. The results provide a new and extended view of the Sod1 activation pathway(s) originating at cellular copper import.
