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

GTP ases of Immunity-Associated Proteins (GIMAPs) are a family of guanine nucleotide binding (G) proteins which are implicated in the regulation of apoptosis in lymphocytes. GIMAPs are composed of an amino-terminal G domain and carboxy-terminal extensions of varying size. Our recent biochemical and structural analysis of a representative GIMAP family member, GIMAP2, revealed the molecular basis of GTP-dependent oligomerization which involves two interfaces in the G domain. Whereas the amphipathic helix α7 in the C-terminal extension closely folds against the G domain in the GDP-bound state, it might be released in the GTP-bound state to assemble interaction partners. We also showed that the GIMAP2 oligomer functions at the surface of lipid droplets in a Jurkat T cell line. Here, we review our recent work and discuss the GIMAP2 oligomer as a GTP-dependent protein scaffold at the surface of lipid droplets controlling apoptosis.
