Nuclear RNF2 inhibits interferon function by promoting K33-linked STAT1 disassociation from DNA.
Article in Nature immunology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 38 papers.
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.
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
Prolonged activation of interferon-STAT1 signaling is closely related to inflammatory autoimmune disorders, and therefore the identification of negative regulators of these pathways is important. Through high-content screening of 115 mouse RING-domain E3 ligases, we identified the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF2 as a potent inhibitor of interferon-dependent antiviral responses. RNF2 deficiency substantially enhanced interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) expression and antiviral responses. Mechanistically, nuclear RNF2 directly bound to STAT1 after interferon stimulation and increased K33-linked polyubiquitination of the DNA-binding domain of STAT1 at position K379, in addition to promoting the disassociation of STAT1/STAT2 from DNA and consequently suppressing ISG transcription. Our study provides insight into the regulation of interferon-dependent responses via a previously unrecognized post-translational modification of STAT1 in the nucleus.
