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

Tec family non-receptor tyrosine kinases (Itk, Btk, Tec, Rlk and Bmx) are characterized by the presence of an autophosphorylation site within the non-catalytic Src homology 3 (SH3) domain. The full-length Itk mutant containing phenylalanine in place of the autophosphorylated tyrosine has been studied in Itk-deficient primary T cells. These studies revealed that the non-phosphorylated enzyme restores Itk mediated signaling only partially. In spite of these insights, the precise role of the Tec kinase autophosphorylation site is unclear and the mechanism of the autophosphorylation reaction within the Tec kinases is not known. Here, we show both in vitro and in vivo that Itk autophosphorylation on Y180 within the SH3 domain occurs exclusively via an intramolecular, in cis mechanism. Using an in vitro kinase assay, we show that mutation of the Itk autophosphorylation site Y180 to Phe decreases kinase activity of the full-length enzyme by increasing Km for a peptide substrate. Moreover, mutation of Y180 to Glu, a residue chosen to mimic the phosphorylated tyrosine, alters the ligand-binding capability of the Itk SH3 domain in a ligand-dependent fashion. NMR chemical shift mapping gives residue-specific structural insight into the effect of the Y180E mutation on ligand binding. These data provide a molecular level context with which to interpret in vivo functional data and allow development of a structural model for Itk autophosphorylation.
