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

Protein palmitoylation is emerging as an important post-translational modification in development as well as in the establishment and progression of diseases such as cancer. This chapter describes the use of fluorescent lipidated peptides to characterize palmitoyl acyltransferase (PAT) activities in vitro and in intact cells. The peptides mimic two motifs that are enzymatically palmitoylated, i.e. C-terminal farnesyl and N-terminal myristoyl sequences. These substrate peptides can be separated from the palmitoylated product peptides by reversed-phase HPLC, detected and quantified by the fluorescence of their NBD label. Through these methods, the activities of PATs toward these alternate substrates in isolated membranes or intact cells can be quantified. The in vitro assay has been used to characterize human PATs and to identify inhibitors of these enzymes. The cellular assay has been useful in elucidating the kinetics of protein palmitoylation by PATs in situ, and the sub-cellular distribution of the palmitoylated products.
