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

Ubiquitination is an essential post-translational modification that regulates protein stability or function. Its substrate specificity is dictated by various E3 ligases. The human C-terminal to LisH (CTLH) complex is a newly discovered multi-subunit really interesting new gene (RING) E3 ligase with only a few known ubiquitination targets. Here, we used mass spectrometry-based proteomic techniques to gain insight into CTLH complex function and ubiquitination substrates in HeLa cells. First, global proteomics determined proteins that were significantly increased, and thus may be substrates targeted for degradation, in cells depleted of CTLH complex member RanBPM. RanBPM-dependent ubiquitination determined using diGLY-enriched proteomics and the endogenous RanBPM interactome further revealed candidate ubiquitination targets. Three glycolysis enzymes alpha-enolase, L-lactate dehydrogenase A chain (LDHA), and pyruvate kinase M1/2 (PKM) had decreased ubiquitin sites in shRanBPM cells and were found associated with RanBPM in the interactome. Reduced polyubiquitination was validated for PKM2 and LDHA in cells depleted of RanBPM and CTLH complex RING domain subunit RMND5A. PKM2 and LDHA protein levels were unchanged, yet their activity was increased in extracts of cells with downregulated RanBPM. Finally, RanBPM deficient cells displayed enhanced glycolysis and deregulated central carbon metabolism. Overall, this study identifies potential CTLH complex ubiquitination substrates and uncovers that the CTLH complex inhibits glycolysis via non-degradative ubiquitination of PKM2 and LDHA.
