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

Proper functioning of the protein-folding quality control network depends on the network's ability to discern diverse structural perturbations to the native states of its protein substrates. Despite the centrality of the detection of misfolded states to cell home-ostasis, very little is known about the exact sequence and structural features that mark a protein as being misfolded. To investigate these features, we studied the requirements for the degradation of the yeast kinetochore protein Ndc10p. Mutant Ndc10p is a substrate of a protein-folding quality control pathway mediated by the E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase Doa10p at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/nuclear envelope membrane. Analysis of Ndc10p mutant derivatives, employing a reverse genetics approach, identified an autonomous quality control-associated degradation motif near the C-terminus of the protein. This motif is composed of two indispensable hydrophobic elements: a hydrophobic surface of an amphipathic helix and a loosely structured hydrophobic C-terminal tail. Site-specific point mutations expose these elements, triggering ubiquitin-mediated and HSP70 chaperone-dependent degradation of Ndc10p. These findings substantiate the ability of the ER quality control system to recognize subtle perturbation(s) in the native structure of a nuclear protein.
