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

Galphao, the most abundant G protein in mammalian brain, occurs at least in two subforms, i.e., Galphao1 and Galphao2, derived by alternative splicing of the mRNA. A third Galphao1-related isoform, Galphao3, has been purified, representing about 30% of total Go in brain. Initial studies revealed distinct biochemical properties of Galphao3 as compared with other Galphao isoforms. In matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization peptide mass mapping of gel-isolated Galphao1 and Galphao3, C-terminal peptides showed a difference of +1 Da for Galphao3. Nanoelectrospray tandem mass spectrometry sequencing revealed an Asp instead of an Asn at position 346 of Galphao3. Gel electrophoretic analysis of recombinant Galphao3 showed the same mobility as native Galphao3 but distinct to Galphao1. The conversion of 346Asn-->Asp changed the signaling properties, including the velocity of the basal guanine nucleotide-exchange reaction, which points to the involvement of the C terminus in basal guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate binding. No cDNA coding for Galphao3 was detected, suggesting an enzymatic deamidation of Galphao1 by a yet-unidentified activity. Therefore, Galpha heterogeneity is generated not only at the DNA or RNA levels, but also at the protein level. The relative amount of Galphao1 and Galphao3 differed from cell type to cell type, indicating an additional principle of G protein regulation.
