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

Palmitoylation is a posttranslational modification that regulates protein trafficking and stability. In this study we investigated whether the endosomal soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNARE) proteins syntaxin 7 and syntaxin 8 are modified with palmitate. Using metabolic labeling and site-directed mutagenesis, we show that human syntaxins 7 and 8 are modified with palmitate through a thioester linkage. Palmitoylation is dependent upon cysteine 239 of human syntaxin 7 and cysteine 214 of syntaxin 8, residues that are located on the cytoplasmic face of the transmembrane domain (TMD). Palmitoylation of syntaxin 8 is minimally affected by the Golgi-disturbing agent brefeldin A (BFA), whereas BFA dramatically inhibits palmitoylation of syntaxin7. The differential effect of BFA suggests that palmitoylation of syntaxins 7 and 8 occurs in distinct subcellular compartments. Palmitoylation does not affect the rate of protein turnover of syntaxins 7 and 8 nor does it influence the steady-state localization of syntaxin 8 in late endosomes. Syntaxin 7 actively cycles between endosomes and the plasma membrane. Palmitoylation-defective syntaxin 7 is selectively retained on the plasma membrane, suggesting that palmitoylation is important for intercompartmental transport of syntaxin 7.
