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

Proteins are often made in more than one form, with alternate versions sometimes residing in different cellular compartments than the primary species. The mammalian prion protein (PrP), a cell surface GPI-anchored protein, is a particularly noteworthy example for which minor cytosolic and transmembrane forms have been implicated in disease pathogenesis. To study these minor species, we used a selective labeling strategy in which spatially restricted expression of a biotinylating enzyme was combined with asymmetric engineering of the cognate acceptor sequence into PrP. Using this method, we could show that even wild-type PrP generates small amounts of the (Ctm)PrP transmembrane form. Selective detection of (Ctm)PrP allowed us to reveal its N-terminal processing, long half-life, residence in both intracellular and cell surface locations, and eventual degradation in the lysosome. Surprisingly, some human disease-causing mutants in PrP selectively stabilized (Ctm)PrP, revealing a previously unanticipated mechanism of (Ctm)PrP up-regulation that may contribute to disease. Thus, spatiotemporal tagging has uncovered novel aspects of normal and mutant PrP metabolism and should be readily applicable to the analysis of minor topologic isoforms of other proteins.
