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 present study reports the recognition and characterization of the gene encoding the co-chaperone DnaJ in the halophilic strain Mesobacillus persicus B48. The new extracted gene was sequenced and cloned in E. coli, followed by protein purification using a C-terminal His-tag. The stability and function of the recombinant DnaJ protein under salt and pH stress conditions were evaluated. SDS-PAGE revealed a band on nearly 40-kDa region. The homology model structure of new DnaJ demonstrated 56% similarity to the same protein from Streptococcus pneumonia. Fluorescence spectra indicated several hydrophobic residues located on the protein surface, which is consistent with the misfolded polypeptide recognition function of DnaJ. Spectroscopic results showed 56% higher carbonic anhydrase activity in the presence of the recombinant DnaJ homolog compared to its absence. In addition, salt resistance experiments showed that the survival of recombinant E. coli+DnaJ was 2.1 times more than control cells in 0.5 M NaCl. Furthermore, the number of recombinant E. coli BL21+DnaJ colonies was 7.7 times that of the control colonies in pH 8.5. Based on the results, DnaJ from the M. persicus can potentially be employed for improving the functional features of enzymes and other proteins in various applications.
