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

Drosophila inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) 1 (DIAP1) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that regulates apoptosis in flies, in large part through direct inhibition and/or ubiquitinylation of caspases. IAP antagonists, such as Reaper, Hid, and Grim, are thought to induce cell death by displacing active caspases from baculovirus IAP repeat domains in DIAP1, but can themselves become targets of DIAP1-mediated ubiquitinylation. Herein, we demonstrate that Grim self-associates in cells and is ubiquitinylated by DIAP1 at Lys136 in an UbcD1-dependent manner, resulting in its rapid turnover. K48-linked ubiquitin chains are added almost exclusively to BIR2-bound Grim as a result of its structural proximity to DIAP1's RING domain. However, active caspases can simultaneously cleave Grim at Asp132, removing the lysine necessary for ubiquitinylation as well as any existing ubiquitin conjugates. Cleavage therefore enhances the stability of Grim and initiates a feed-forward caspase amplification loop, resulting in greater cell death. In summary, Grim is a caspase substrate whose cleavage promotes apoptosis by limiting, in a target-specific fashion, its ubiquitinylation and turnover by the proteasome.
