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 response to cell surface stress in yeast is mediated by a set of five plasma membrane sensors. We here address the relation of intracellular localization of the sensors Wsc1, Wsc2, and Mid2 to their turnover and signaling function. Growth competition experiments indicate that Wsc2 plays an important role in addition to Wsc1 and Mid2. The two Wsc sensors appear at the bud neck during cytokinesis and employ different routes of endocytosis, which govern their turnover. Whereas Wsc1 uses a clathrin-dependent NPFDD signal, Wsc2 relies on a specific lysine residue (K495). In end3 and doa4 endocytosis mutants, both sensors accumulate at the plasma membrane, and a hypersensitivity to cell wall-specific drugs and to treatment with zymolyase is observed. A haploid strain in which endocytosis of the two sensors is specifically blocked displays a reduced fitness in growth competition experiments. If the Mid2 sensor is mobilized by the addition of an endocytosis signal, it mimics the dynamic distribution of the Wsc sensors, but is unable to complement the specific growth defects of a wsc1 deletion. These data suggest that sensor distribution is not the major determinant for its specificity.
