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

In cyanobacteria and red algae, allophycocyanin (APC), as well as other phycobiliproteins, is involved in the energy transfer of photosystems. Since APC is a potent fluorescent protein for imaging and biomedical applications, it is necessary to obtain purified protein in large quantities, which is currently possible by biosynthesis in bacterial systems. Here we emphasize the challenges of obtaining the trimeric form of the protein from α-APC and β-APC subunits of allophycocyanin in vitro. This approach allowed us to study the individual subunits and to perform assembly of allophycocyanin trimers in vitro. Using different spectroscopic techniques, we detected the heterogeneity of the synthesized β-APC and showed the possibility that not only holo-forms may be involved in trimer formation. Data allowed us to provide additional arguments in favor of excitonic coupling of chromophores in APC trimers.
