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

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is emerging as a target for inhibition in therapeutic strategies aimed at treating cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and other disorders. Among the metal-dependent HDAC isozymes, HDAC6 is unique in that it contains two catalytic domains, CD1 and CD2. CD2 is a tubulin deacetylase and a tau deacetylase, and the development of HDAC6-selective inhibitors has focused exclusively on this domain. In contrast, there is a dearth of structural and functional information regarding CD1, which exhibits much narrower substrate specificity in comparison with CD2. As the first step in addressing the CD1 information gap, we now present X-ray crystal structures of seven inhibitor complexes with wild-type, Y363F, and K330L HDAC6 CD1. These structures broaden our understanding of molecular features that are important for catalysis and inhibitor binding. The active site of HDAC6 CD1 is wider than that of CD2, which is unexpected in view of the narrow substrate specificity of CD1. Amino acid substitutions between HDAC6 CD1 and CD2, as well as conformational differences in conserved residues, define striking differences in active site contours. Catalytic activity measurements with HDAC6 CD1 confirm the preference for peptide substrates containing C-terminal acetyllysine residues. However, these measurements also show that CD1 exhibits weak activity for peptide substrates bearing certain small amino acids on the carboxyl side of the scissile acetyllysine residue. Taken together, these results establish a foundation for understanding the structural basis of HDAC6 CD1 catalysis and inhibition, pointing to possible avenues for the development of HDAC6 CD1-selective inhibitors.
