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

Several transcription factors of the Rrf2 family use an iron-sulfur cluster to regulate DNA binding through effectors such as nitric oxide (NO), cellular redox status and iron levels. [4Fe-4S]-NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor (ScNsrR) modulates expression of three different genes via reaction and complex formation with variable amounts of NO, which results in detoxification of this gas. Here, we report the crystal structure of ScNsrR complexed with an hmpA1 gene operator fragment and compare it with those previously reported for [2Fe-2S]-RsrR/rsrR and apo-IscR/hyA complexes. Important structural differences reside in the variation of the DNA minor and major groove widths. In addition, different DNA curvatures and different interactions with the protein sensors are observed. We also report studies of NsrR binding to four hmpA1 variants, which indicate that flexibility in the central region is not a key binding determinant. Our study explores the promotor binding specificities of three closely related transcriptional regulators.
