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

Therapeutic target characterization involves many components, including accurate molecular weight (MW) determination. Knowledge of the accurate MW allows one to detect the presence of post-translational modifications, proteolytic cleavages, and importantly, if the correct construct has been generated and purified. Denaturing liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) can be an attractive method for obtaining this information. However, membrane protein LC-MS methodology has remained relatively under-explored and under-incorporated in comparison to methods for soluble proteins. Here, systematic investigation of multiple gradients and column chemistries has led to the development of a 5 min denaturing LC-MS method for acquiring membrane protein accurate MW measurements. Conditions were interrogated with membrane proteins, such as GPCRs and ion channels, as well as bispecific antibody constructs of variable sizes with the aim to provide the community with rapid LC-MS methods necessary to obtain chromatographic and accurate MW measurements in a medium- to high-throughput manner. The 5 min method detailed has successfully produced MW measurements for hydrophobic proteins with a wide MW range (17.5 to 105.3 kDa) and provided evidence that some constructs indeed contain unexpected modifications or sequence clipping. This rapid LC-MS method is also capable of baseline separating formylated and nonformylated aquaporinZ membrane protein.
