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 cellular ESCRT pathway functions in membrane remodeling events that accompany endosomal protein sorting, cytokinesis, and enveloped RNA virus budding. In the last case, short sequence motifs (termed late domains) within human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) p6(Gag) bind and recruit two ESCRT pathway proteins, TSG101 and ALIX, to facilitate virus budding. We now report that overexpression of the HECT ubiquitin E3 ligase, NEDD4L/NEDD4-2, stimulated the release of HIV-1 constructs that lacked TSG101- and ALIX-binding late domains, increasing infectious titers >20-fold. Furthermore, depletion of endogenous NEDD4L inhibited the release of these crippled viruses and led to cytokinesis defects. Stimulation of virus budding was dependent upon the ubiquitin ligase activity of NEDD4L and required only the minimal HIV-1 Gag assembly regions, demonstrating that Gag has ubiquitin-dependent, cis-acting late domain activities located outside of the p6 region. NEDD4L stimulation also required TSG101 and resulted in ubiquitylation of several ESCRT-I subunits, including TSG101. Finally, we found that TSG101/ESCRT-I was required for efficient release of Mason-Pfizer monkey virus, which buds primarily by using a PPXY late domain to recruit NEDD4-like proteins. These observations suggest that NEDD4L and possibly other NEDD4-like proteins can ubiquitylate and activate ESCRT-I to function in virus budding.
