When Phosphatases Go Mad: The Molecular Basis for Toxicity of Yeast Ppz1.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The fact that overexpression of the yeast Ser/Thr protein phosphatase Ppz1 induces a dramatic halt in cell proliferation was known long ago, but only work in the last few years has provided insight into the molecular basis for this toxicity. Overexpression of Ppz1 causes abundant changes in gene expression and modifies the phosphorylation state of more than 150 proteins, including key signaling protein kinases such as Hog1 or Snf1. Diverse cellular processes are altered: halt in translation, failure to properly adapt to low glucose supply, acidification of the cytosol, or depletion of intracellular potassium content are a few examples. Therefore, the toxicity derived from an excess of Ppz1 appears to be multifactorial, the characteristic cell growth blockage thus arising from the combination of various altered processes. Notably, overexpression of the Ppz1 regulatory subunit Hal3 fully counteracts the toxic effects of the phosphatase, and this process involves intracellular relocation of the phosphatase to internal membranes.
