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

Coronavirus gene expression involves proteolytic processing of the gene 1-encoded polyprotein(s), and a key enzyme in this process is the viral 3C-like proteinase. In this report, we describe the biosynthesis of the human coronavirus 229E 3C-like proteinase in Escherichia coli and the enzymatic properties, inhibitor profile, and substrate specificity of the purified protein. Furthermore, we have introduced single amino acid substitutions and carboxyl-terminal deletions into the recombinant protein and determined the ability of these mutant 3C-like proteinases to catalyze the cleavage of a peptide substrate. Using this approach, we have identified the residues Cys-3109 and His-3006 as being indispensable for catalytic activity. Our results also support the involvement of His-3127 in substrate recognition, and they confirm the requirement of the carboxyl-terminal extension found in coronavirus 3C-like proteinases for enzymatic activity. These data provide experimental evidence for the relationship of coronavirus 3C-like proteinases to other viral chymotrypsin-like enzymes, but they also show that the coronavirus proteinase has additional, unique properties.
