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 yeast Hsp104 protein disaggregase is often used as a reporter for misfolded or damaged protein aggregates and protein quality control and ageing research. Observing Hsp104 fusions with fluorescent proteins is a popular approach to follow post stress protein aggregation, inclusion formation and disaggregation. While concerns that bigger protein tags, such as genetically encoded fluorescent tags, may affect protein behaviour and function have been around for quite some time, experimental evidence of how exactly the physiology of the protein of interest is altered within fluorescent protein fusions remains limited. To address this issue, we performed a comparative assessment of endogenously expressed Hsp104 fluorescent fusions function and behaviour. We provide experimental evidence that molecular behaviour may not only be altered by introducing a fluorescent protein tag but also varies depending on such a tag within the fusion. Although our findings are especially applicable to protein quality control and ageing research in yeast, similar effects may play a role in other eukaryotic systems.
