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

Studies on the structures and functions of individual kinases have been used to understand the biological properties of other kinases that do not yet have experimental structures. The key factor in accurate inference by homology is an accurate sequence alignment. We present a parsimonious, structure-based multiple sequence alignment (MSA) of 497 human protein kinase domains excluding atypical kinases. The alignment is arranged in 17 blocks of conserved regions and unaligned blocks in between that contain insertions of varying lengths present in only a subset of kinases. The aligned blocks contain well-conserved elements of secondary structure and well-known functional motifs, such as the DFG and HRD motifs. From pairwise, all-against-all alignment of 272 human kinase structures, we estimate the accuracy of our MSA to be 97%. The remaining inaccuracy comes from a few structures with shifted elements of secondary structure, and from the boundaries of aligned and unaligned regions, where compromises need to be made to encompass the majority of kinases. A new phylogeny of the protein kinase domains in the human genome based on our alignment indicates that ten kinases previously labeled as "OTHER" can be confidently placed into the CAMK group. These kinases comprise the Aurora kinases, Polo kinases, and calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase kinases.
