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

Tripeptidyl-peptidase II (TPP II) is a cytosolic high-M(r) exopeptidase with an active site of the subtilisin type. This paper describes cloning of cDNA encoding murine TPP II. Four clones were isolated from a murine mastocytoma cDNA library and the 5'-end was isolated by use of 5'-RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends). A total of 4611 bp were isolated, including the complete coding region. The deduced amino acid sequence shows a 96% overall identity when compared with the previously cloned human TPP II. The remarkably high identity indicates that not only the catalytic domain, but almost the entire subunit, must be of functional importance. Alignment with subtilisin-like serine peptidases identified Asp44, His264 and Ser449 as the catalytic triad, thus defining an extra domain of approximately 200 amino acids between the catalytic Asp and His in TPP II as compared with other subtilases. In addition, it was demonstrated that different polyadenylation signals can be utilized, since two different clones with untranslated 3'-ends of 155 bp and 781 bp respectively have been isolated. Finally, one of the isolated clones contains an extra 39 bp insert encoding 13 amino acids, which implies alternative splicing of the mRNA.
