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

Adenosine triphosphatases (ATPases) associated with a variety of cellular activities (AAA+), the hexameric ring-shaped motor complexes located in all ATP-driven proteolytic machines, are involved in many cellular processes. Powered by cycles of ATP binding and hydrolysis, conformational changes in AAA+ ATPases can generate mechanical work that unfolds a substrate protein inside the central axial channel of ATPase ring for degradation. Three-dimensional visualizations of several AAA+ ATPase complexes in the act of substrate processing for protein degradation have been resolved at the atomic level thanks to recent technical advances in cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Here, we summarize the resulting advances in structural and biochemical studies of AAA+ proteases in the process of proteolysis reactions, with an emphasis on cryo-EM structural analyses of the 26S proteasome, Cdc48/p97 and FtsH-like mitochondrial proteases. These studies reveal three highly conserved patterns in the structure-function relationship of AAA+ ATPase hexamers that were observed in the human 26S proteasome, thus suggesting common dynamic models of mechanochemical coupling during force generation and substrate translocation.
