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 kinase CK2 (also known as casein kinase 2) is present in the cytoplasm, nuclei, and several other organelles. In addition, this enzyme has been found bound to the external side of the cell membrane where it acts as an ectokinase phosphorylating several extracellular proteins. Previous experiments with transfection of HEK-293T cells demonstrated that expression of both subunits, CK2alpha (catalytic) and CK2beta (regulatory), was necessary for the appearance of the ectopic enzyme as an ectokinase. In this work, using deletion and point mutations of CK2beta, it was possible to demonstrate that the region between amino acids 20 and 33 was necessary for the export of the enzyme as an ectokinase. Phenylalanines 21 and 22 and acidic residues in positions 26-28 are involved in the structural aspects that are required for export. However, the region encompassing amino acids 20-33 of CK2beta is not sufficient to make the carboxyl half of this subunit functional in bringing CK2 to the ectokinase locus. In cells transfected with only CK2beta, it was demonstrated that 3-4% of the subunit is exported to the cell medium, but the subunit is not bound to the external membrane.
