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 receptor for activated C kinase (RACK1), a conserved constituent of eukaryotic ribosomes, mediates phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4G1(S1093) [eIF4G1(S1093)] and eIF3a(S1364) by protein kinase C βII (PKCβII) (M. I. Dobrikov, E. Y. Dobrikova, and M. Gromeier, Mol Cell Biol 38:e00304-18, 2018, https://doi.org/10.1128/MCB.00304-18). RACK1:PKCβII activation drives a phorbol ester-induced surge of global protein synthesis and template-specific translation induction of PKC-Raf-extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2)-responsive genes. For unraveling mechanisms of RACK1:PKCβII-mediated translation stimulation, we used sequentially truncated eIF4G1 in coimmunoprecipitation analyses to delineate a set of autoinhibitory elements in the N-terminal unstructured region (surrounding the eIF4E-binding motif) and the interdomain linker (within the eIF3-binding site) of eIF4G1. Computer-based predictions of secondary structure, mutational analyses, and fluorescent titration with the β-sheet dye thioflavin T suggest that eIF4G1(S1093) modulates a 4-stranded β-sheet composed of antiparallel β-hairpins formed by the autoinhibitory elements in eIF4G1's unstructured regions. The intact β-sheet "locks" the eIF4G configuration, preventing assembly with eIF3/40S ribosomal subunits. Upon PKC stimulation, activated RACK1:PKCβII phosphorylates eIF4G(S1093) in the tight 48S initiation complex, possibly facilitating dissociation/recycling of eIF4F.
