A GFP-based ratiometric sensor for cellular methionine oxidation.
Article in Talanta, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Methionine oxidation is a reversible post-translational protein modification, affecting protein function, and implicated in aging and degenerative diseases. The detection of accumulating methionine oxidation in living cells or organisms, however, has not been achieved. Here we introduce a genetically encoded probe for methionine oxidation (GEPMO), based on the super-folder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP), as a specific, versatile, and integrating sensor for methionine oxidation. Placed at amino-acid position 147 in an otherwise methionine-less sfGFP, the oxidation of this specific methionine to methionine sulfoxide results in a ratiometric fluorescence change when excited with ∼400 and ∼470 nm light. The strength and homogeneity of the sensor expression is suited for live-cell imaging as well as fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) experiments using standard laser wavelengths (405/488 nm). Expressed in mammalian cells and also in S. cerevisiae, the sensor protein faithfully reports on the status of methionine oxidation in an integrating manner. Variants targeted to membranes and the mitochondria provide subcellular resolution of methionine oxidation, e.g. reporting on site-specific oxidation by illumination of endogenous protoporphyrin IX.
