Cloning of a human homologue of the mouse Tctex-5 gene within the MHC class I region.

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
Using a positional cloning strategy to identify the hemochromatosis gene (HFE), we isolated seven cDNAs by cDNA selection from a region of 400 kilobases (kb) located near the HLA-A and HLA-F loci. In this paper, we report the study of one of the corresponding genes, referred to as HCG V (hemochromatosis candidate gene), localized 150 kb centromeric to HLA-A. This gene was found to be expressed ubiquitously in the form of a 1.8 kb transcript, and to be apparently well conserved during evolution. The gene spanned 3.1 kb and is organized in three exons and two introns. The cDNA of 1620 base pairs (bp) showed an open reading frame of 378 bp, encoding for a 126 amino acid polypeptide which displayed a strong identity with the predicted product of a mouse Tctex-5 gene (t complex, testis expressed) localized in the t complex on chromosome 17. The HCG V gene was assessed as a potential candidate for hemochromatosis in regard to its localization in the linkage disequilibrium area between HFE and polymorphic markers. The study of deletions and point mutations in hemochromatosis patients revealed a single bp polymorphism within the coding region; however, no associated disease changes were found. Therefore we conclude that HCG V is unlikely to be involved in the pathogenesis of hemochromatosis.
