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

SAMHD1 is a newly identified restriction factor that targets lentiviruses in myeloid cells and is countered by the SIV(SM)/HIV-2 Vpx protein. By analyzing a large panel of Vpx mutants, we identify several residues throughout the 3-helix bundle predicted for Vpx that impair both its functionality and its ability to degrade SAMHD1. We determine that SAMHD1 is a strictly non-shuttling nuclear protein and that as expected WT Vpx localizes with it in the nucleus. However, we also identify a functional Vpx mutant with predominant cytoplasmic distribution that colocalizes with SAMHD1 in this location, suggesting that Vpx may also retain SAMHD1 in the cell cytoplasm, prior to its entry into the nucleus. Several mutations in Vpx were shown to affect the stability of Vpx, as well as Vpx:Vpx interactions. However, no strict correlation was observed between these parameters and the functionality of Vpx, implying that neither properties is absolutely required for this function and indicating that even unstable Vpx mutants may be very efficient in inducing SAMHD1 degradation. Overall, our analysis identifies several Vpx residues required for SAMHD1 degradation and points to a very efficient and plastic mechanism through which Vpx depletes this restriction factor.
