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

Rho-family GTPases Cdc42p and Rho1p play critical roles in the budding process of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, it is not clear how the functions of these GTPases are coordinated temporally and spatially during this process. Based on its ability to suppress cdc42-Ts mutants when overexpressed, a novel gene PXL1 was identified. Pxl1p resembles mammalian paxillin, which is involved in integrating various signaling events at focal adhesion. Both proteins share amino acid sequence homology and structural organization. When expressed in yeast, chicken paxillin localizes to the sites of polarized growth as Pxl1p does. In addition, the LIM domains in both proteins are the primary determinant for targeting the proteins to the cortical sites in their native cells. These data strongly suggest that Pxl1p is the "ancient paxillin" in yeast. Deletion of PXL1 does not produce any obvious phenotype. However, Pxl1p directly binds to Rho1p-GDP in vitro, and inhibits the growth of rho1-2 and rho1-3 mutants in a dosage-dependent manner. The opposite effects of overexpressed Pxl1p on cdc42 and rho1 mutants suggest that the functions of Cdc42p and Rho1p may be coordinately regulated during budding and that Pxl1p may be involved in this coordination.
