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

Lysine 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutarylation (HMG-K) is a newly identified PTM that can occur non-enzymatically in mitochondria. However, the substrate scope of this new PTM remains insufficiently explored, which has greatly hindered the progress in interpreting its regulatory mechanisms and cellular functions. Here, we report the development of an alkyne-functionalized chemical reporter (HMGAM-yne), for the detection and identification of cellular HMGylated proteins. HMGAM-yne is cell-permeable and metabolically incorporated into proteins in living cells. Subsequent biorthogonal conjugation enables fluorescence visualization and identification of the protein substrates of HMG-K. Using HMGAM-yne, we also identified Sirt5 as an 'eraser' that regulates HMGylation in cells. In addition to the known mitochondrial HMG-K proteins, HMGAM-yne facilitates the discovery of multiple nuclear proteins, including histones, as novel substrates of lysine HMGylation.
