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 endoplasmic reticulum (ER) glycoprotein HMG-CoA reductase (HMGR) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in sterols biosynthesis. Mammalian HMGR is ubiquitinated and degraded by the proteasome when sterols accumulate in cells, representing the best example for metabolically controlled ER-associated degradation (ERAD). This regulated degradation involves the short-lived ER protein Insig-1. Here, we investigated the dislocation of these ERAD substrates to the cytosol en route to proteasomal degradation. We show that the tagged HMGR membrane region, HMG(350)-HA, the endogenous HMGR, and Insig-1-Myc, all polytopic membrane proteins, dislocate to the cytosol as intact full-length polypeptides. Dislocation of HMG(350)-HA and Insig-1-Myc requires metabolic energy and involves the AAA-ATPase p97/VCP. Sterols stimulate HMG(350)-HA and HMGR release to the cytosol concurrent with removal of their N-glycan by cytosolic peptide:N-glycanase. Sterols neither accelerate dislocation nor stimulate deglycosylation of ubiquitination-defective HMG(350)-HA((K89 + 248R)) mutant. Dislocation of HMG(350)-HA depends on Insig-1-Myc, whose dislocation and degradation are sterol independent. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments demonstrate sterol-stimulated association between HMG(350)-HA and Insig-1-Myc. Sterols do not enhance binding to Insig-1-Myc of HMG(350)-HA mutated in its sterol-sensing domain or of HMG(350)-HA((K89 + 248R)). Wild-type HMG(350)-HA and Insig-1-Myc coimmunoprecipitate from the soluble fraction only when both proteins were coexpressed in the same cell, indicating their encounter before or during dislocation, raising the possibility that they are dislocated as a tightly bound complex.
