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

We identified a cysteine residue, conserved near the N terminus of Pex5p- and Pex20p-like proteins, that is essential for the cytosolic relocation of peroxisomal Pex20p. Surprisingly, this residue is not completely essential for the function of the protein; its point mutation into a serine in Pex20p(C8S) causes the accumulation of the protein at the peroxisome membrane, but this is quickly followed by its subsequent degradation by an ubiquitin-dependent quality control pathway called RADAR (receptor accumulation and degradation in the absence of recycling). This degradative pathway allows partial growth of the Pex20p(C8S) mutant on peroxisome-requiring medium. Mutation of cysteine 8 (C8S) and lysine 19 (K19R), the target residue of the RADAR pathway within Pex20p, leads to a stable but non-functional protein because it fails to recycle to the cytosol. This suggests a role for Cys-8 in Pex20p recycling and that constitutive degradation of peroxisomal receptors can be a partially functional alternative to receptor recycling. In addition, expression of this mutant protein in wild-type cells confers a dominant-negative, oleate-specific growth defect, which is a useful tool for a better understanding of peroxisomal receptor recycling.
