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 AMP-activated protein kinase is a metabolic regulator that transduces information about energy and nutrient availability. In yeast, the AMP-activated protein kinase, called Snf1, is activated when energy and nutrients are scarce. Earlier studies have demonstrated that activation of Snf1 requires the phosphorylation of the activation loop on threonine 210. Here we examined the regulation of Snf1 kinase activity in response to phosphorylation at other sites. Phosphoproteomic studies have identified numerous phosphorylation sites within the Snf1 kinase enzyme. We made amino acid substitutions in the Snf1 protein that were either non-phosphorylatable (serine to alanine) or phospho-mimetic (serine to glutamate) and examined the effects of these changes on Snf1 kinase function in vivo and on its catalytic activity in vitro. We found that changes to most of the phosphorylation sites had no effect on Snf1 kinase function. However, changes to serine 214, a site within the kinase activation loop, inhibited Snf1 kinase activity. Snf1-activating kinase 1 still phosphorylates Snf1-S214E on threonine 210 but the S214E enzyme is non-functional in vivo and catalytically inactive in vitro. We conclude that yeast have developed two distinct pathways for down-regulating Snf1 activity. The first is through direct dephosphorylation of the conserved activation loop threonine. The second is through phosphorylation of serine 214.
