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 protein called 'small ubiquitin-like modifier' (SUMO) is post-translationally linked to target proteins at the ɛ-amino group of lysine residues. This 'SUMOylation' alters the behavior of the target protein, a change that is utilized to regulate diverse cellular processes. Understanding the target-specific consequences of SUMO modification requires knowledge of the location of conjugation sites, and we have developed a straightforward protocol for the proteome-wide identification of SUMO modification sites using mass spectrometry (MS). The approach described herein requires the expression of a mutant form of SUMO, in which the residue preceding the C-terminal Gly-Gly (diGly) is replaced with a lysine (SUMO(KGG)). Digestion of SUMO(KGG) protein conjugates with endoproteinase Lys-C yields a diGly motif attached to target lysines. Peptides containing this adduct are enriched using a diGly-Lys (K-ɛ-GG)-specific antibody and identified by MS. This diGly signature is characteristic of SUMO(KGG) conjugation alone, as no other ubiquitin-like protein (Ubl) yields this adduct upon Lys-C digestion. We have demonstrated the utility of the approach in SUMOylation studies, but, in principle, it may be adapted for the site-specific identification of proteins modified by any Ubl. Starting from cell lysis, this protocol can be completed in ∼5 d.
