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

Protein ubiquitination is an essential post-translational modification (PTM) involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular functions, including transcription and protein degradation. Proteins can be both mono- or poly-ubiquitinated. Poly-ubiquitin chains vary in the manner by which the ubiquitin proteins are linked and their total length. Different poly-ubiquitin structures are thought to specify different fates for the target protein but the correlation between poly-ubiquitin structures and their specific cellular function(s) is not well understood. We have developed a set of specific and quantitative targeted mass spectrometry assays to determine the frequency of different types of inter-ubiquitin linkages in poly-ubiquitin chains relative to the total ubiquitin concentration. We chemically synthesized heavy isotope labeled reference peptides that represent the products generated by tryptic digestion of the known forms of inter-ubiquitin links for the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and human, in addition to all peptides from tryptic digestion of a single ubiquitin molecule for these two species. We used these peptides to develop optimized Selected Reaction Monitoring (SRM) assays for their unambiguous detection in biological samples. We used these assays to profile the frequency of the different types of inter-ubiquitin linkages in a mixture of in vitro assembled human poly-ubiquitin chains and 15 isolated poly-ubiquitinated proteins from S. cerevisiae. We then applied the method to detect toxin induced changes in the poly-ubiquitination profile in complex and enriched protein samples.
