Synonymous and non-synonymous codon substitutions can alleviate dependence on GroEL for folding.

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.
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 Escherichia coli GroEL/ES chaperonin system facilitates protein folding in an ATP-driven manner. There are <100 obligate clients of this system in E. coli although GroEL can interact and assist the folding of a multitude of proteins in vitro. It has remained unclear, however, which features distinguish obligate clients from all the other proteins in an E. coli cell. To address this question, we established a system for selecting mutations in mouse dihydrofolate reductase (mDHFR), a GroEL interactor, that diminish its dependence on GroEL for folding. Strikingly, both synonymous and non-synonymous codon substitutions were found to reduce mDHFR's dependence on GroEL. The non-synonymous substitutions increase the rate of spontaneous folding whereas computational analysis indicates that the synonymous substitutions appear to affect translation rates at specific sites.
