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 pseudorabies virus (PRV) Us2 protein binds to the extracellular-regulated kinase (ERK) and inhibits the activation of ERK nuclear targets by sequestering cytoplasmic ERK on cellular membranes. Utilizing a series of Us2 truncations, we determined that the minimal portion of Us2 required for interaction with ERK is contained within its amino-terminal 214 amino acids. The loss of the ability of Us2 to bind to ERK in coimmunoprecipitation experiments was accompanied by a failure of Us2 to form oligomers, raising the possibility that higher-order Us2 structures are required for ERK interaction. To map the Us2 interaction site on ERK, we introduced mutations into the region of ERK that interacts with the ERK kinase, MEK, or into the common docking (CD) domain that mediates interactions with many ERK substrates. ERK carrying mutations within the MEK binding region maintained the ability to bind Us2, whereas ERK carrying mutations within the CD domain did not. Furthermore, the ERK CD domain was required for the Us2-mediated recruitment of ERK to membranes. Taken together, these findings suggest that Us2 regulates ERK activity by spatially restricting ERK localization and also by interfering with select ERK-substrate interactions.
