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

Many tail-anchored (TA) membrane proteins are targeted to and inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the `guided entry of tail-anchored proteins' (GET) pathway. This post-translational pathway uses transmembrane-domain selective cytosolic chaperones for targeting, and a dedicated membrane protein complex for insertion. The past decade has seen rapid progress towards defining the molecular basis of TA protein biogenesis by the GET pathway. Here we review the mechanisms underlying each step of the pathway, emphasizing recent structural work and highlighting key questions that await future studies.
