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

The ubiquitin signaling pathway consists of hundreds of enzymes that are tightly regulated for the maintenance of cell homeostasis. Parkin is an E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for conjugating ubiquitin onto a substrate protein, which itself can be ubiquitinated. Ataxin-3 performs the opposing function as a deubiquitinating enzyme that can remove ubiquitin from parkin. In this work, we have identified the mechanism of interaction between the ubiquitin-like (Ubl) domain from parkin and three C-terminal ubiquitin-interacting motifs (UIMs) in ataxin-3. (1)H-(15)N heteronuclear single-quantum coherence titration experiments revealed that there are weak direct interactions between all three individual UIM regions of ataxin-3 and the Ubl domain. Each UIM utilizes the exposed β-grasp surface of the Ubl domain centered around the I44 patch that did not vary in the residues involved or the surface size as a function of the number of ataxin-3 UIMs involved. Further, the apparent dissociation constant for ataxin-3 decreased as a function of the number of UIM regions used in experiments. A global multisite fit of the nuclear magnetic resonance titration data, based on three identical binding ligands, resulted in a KD of 669 ± 62 μM for each site. Our observations support a multivalent ligand binding mechanism employed by the parkin Ubl domain to recruit multiple UIM regions in ataxin-3 and provide insight into how these two proteins function together in ubiquitination-deubiquitination pathways.
