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

The mouse mammary tumor virus gag-pro transframe protein (p30) contains the nucleocapsid protein domain derived from the 3' end of gag, fused to 154 residues encoded by the 5' region of the pro open reading frame. The DNA coding for p30 was cloned into the plasmid pALTER-1, and an additional nucleotide was inserted by site-directed mutagenesis to allow the read-through from the gag into the pro open reading frame. The obtained insert was then cloned into pGEX-2T, a plasmid containing the glutathione S-transferase gene of Schistosoma japonicum and a nucleotide sequence encoding for a thrombin cleavage site. The chimeric protein (GST-p30) was isolated by affinity chromatography on a glutathione-Sepharose 4B column, and after thrombin treatment, the excised p30 was further purified on a single-stranded DNA-agarose column. This protein showed dUTPase activity, with only negligible cleavage of dATP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP, or UTP. Its apparent Km for dUTP was 28 microM. The enzyme was inhibited by EDTA, but its effect could be reversed by Mg2+ and other divalent cations. dUTPase activity was also detected in purified mouse mammary tumor virus, and p30 was the only protein recognized by antibodies directed towards the carboxyl-terminal sequence of the dUTPase coding region.
