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

The heterodimer of ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCG5 and ABCG8 mediates the excretion of sterols from liver and intestine, playing a critical role in cholesterol homeostasis. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of ABCG5/G8 in complex with the Fab fragments from two monoclonal antibodies at 3.3Å resolution. The high-resolution structure reveals a unique dimer interface between the nucleotide-binding domains (NBD) of opposing transporters, consisting of an ordered network of salt bridges between the conserved NPXDFXXD motif and serving as a pivot point that may be important for the transport cycle. While mAb 11F4 increases the ATPase activity potentially by stabilization of the NBD dimer formation, mAb 2E10 inhibits ATP hydrolysis, likely by restricting the relative movement between the RecA and helical domain of ABCG8 NBD. Our study not only provides insights into the structural elements important for the transport cycle but also reveals novel epitopes for potential therapeutic interventions.
