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 nonerythrocyte isoform of the cytoskeletal protein 4.1R (4.1R) is associated with morphologically dynamic structures during cell division and has been implicated in mitotic spindle function. In this study, we define important 4.1R isoforms expressed in interphase and mitotic cells by RT-PCR and mini-cDNA library construction. Moreover, we show that 4.1R is phosphorylated by p34cdc2 kinase on residues Thr60 and Ser679 in a mitosis-specific manner. Phosphorylated 4.1R135 isoform(s) associate with tubulin and Nuclear Mitotic Apparatus protein (NuMA) in intact HeLa cells in vivo as well as with the microtubule-associated proteins in mitotic asters assembled in vitro. Recombinant 4.1R135 is readily phosphorylated in mitotic extracts and reconstitutes mitotic aster assemblies in 4.1R-immunodepleted extracts in vitro. Furthermore, phosphorylation of these residues appears to be essential for the targeting of 4.1R to the spindle poles and for mitotic microtubule aster assembly in vitro. Phosphorylation of 4.1R also enhances its association with NuMA and tubulin. Finally, we used siRNA inhibition to deplete 4.1R from HeLa cells and provide the first direct genetic evidence that 4.1R is required to efficiently focus mitotic spindle poles. Thus, we suggest that 4.1R is a member of the suite of direct cdc2 substrates that are required for the establishment of a bipolar spindle.
