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

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) involving the extreme C-terminus serve important scaffolding and regulatory functions. Here, we leveraged NanoBiT technology to build a luminescent complementation assay for use in studying this subcategory of PPI. As a model system, we fused one component of NanoBiT to the disordered C-terminus of heat shock protein (Hsp70) and the other to its binding partner, the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain of CHIP/STUB1. We found that HEK293 cells that stably express these chimeras under a doxycycline promoter produced a robust luminescence signal. This signal was sensitive to mutations and it was further tuned by the expression of competitive C-termini. Using this system, we identified a promising, membrane permeable inhibitor of the Hsp70-CHIP interaction. More broadly, we anticipate that NanoBiT is well-suited for studying PPIs that involve C-termini.
