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

UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) flags misfolded glycoproteins for ER retention. We report crystal structures of full-length Chaetomium thermophilum UGGT (CtUGGT), two CtUGGT double-cysteine mutants, and its TRXL2 domain truncation (CtUGGT-ΔTRXL2). CtUGGT molecular dynamics (MD) simulations capture extended conformations and reveal clamping, bending, and twisting inter-domain movements. We name "Parodi limit" the maximum distance on the same glycoprotein between a site of misfolding and an N-linked glycan that can be reglucosylated by monomeric UGGT in vitro, in response to recognition of misfold at that site. Based on the MD simulations, we estimate the Parodi limit as around 70-80 Å. Frequency distributions of distances between glycoprotein residues and their closest N-linked glycosylation sites in glycoprotein crystal structures suggests relevance of the Parodi limit to UGGT activity in vivo. Our data support a "one-size-fits-all adjustable spanner" UGGT substrate recognition model, with an essential role for the UGGT TRXL2 domain.
