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

Pichia pastoris (Pp) Pex8p, the only known intraperoxisomal peroxin at steady state, is targeted to peroxisomes by either the peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS) type 1 or PTS2 pathway. Until recently, all cargoes entering the peroxisome matrix were believed to require the docking and really interesting new gene (RING) subcomplexes, proteins that bridge these two subcomplexes and the PTS receptor-recycling machinery. However, we reported recently that the import of PpPex8p into peroxisomes via the PTS2 pathway is Pex14p dependent but independent of the RING subcomplex (Zhang et al., 2006). In further characterizing the peroxisome membrane-associated translocon, we show that two other components of the docking subcomplex, Pex13p and Pex17p, are dispensable for the import of Pex8p. Moreover, we demonstrate that the import of Pex8p via the PTS1 pathway also does not require the RING subcomplex or intraperoxisomal Pex8p. In receptor-recycling mutants (Deltapex1, Deltapex6, and Deltapex4), Pex8p is largely cytosolic because Pex5p and Pex20p are unstable. However, upon overexpression of the degradation-resistant Pex20p mutant, hemagglutinin (HA)-Pex20p(K19R), in Deltapex4 and Deltapex6 cells, Pex8p enters peroxisome remnants. Our data support the idea that PpPex8p is a special cargo whose translocation into peroxisomes depends only on the PTS receptors and Pex14p and not on intraperoxisomal Pex8p, the RING subcomplex, or the receptor-recycling machinery.
