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

Spindle pole bodies (SPBs), like nuclear pore complexes, are embedded in the nuclear envelope (NE) at sites of fusion of the inner and outer nuclear membranes. A network of interacting proteins is required to insert a cytoplasmic SPB precursor into the NE. A central player of this network is Nbp1 that interacts with the conserved integral membrane protein Ndc1. Here, we establish that Nbp1 is a monotopic membrane protein that is essential for SPB insertion at the inner face of the NE. In vitro and in vivo studies identified an N-terminal amphipathic α-helix of Nbp1 as a membrane-binding element, with crucial functions in SPB duplication. The karyopherin Kap123 binds to a nuclear localization sequence next to this amphipathic α-helix and prevents unspecific tethering of Nbp1 to membranes. After transport into the nucleus, Nbp1 binds to the inner nuclear membrane. These data define the targeting pathway of a SPB component and suggest that the amphipathic α-helix of Nbp1 is important for SPB insertion into the NE from within the nucleus.
