A complete allosteric map of a GTPase switch in its native cellular network.
Article in Cell systems, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Allosteric regulation is central to protein function in cellular networks. A fundamental open question is whether cellular regulation of allosteric proteins occurs only at a few defined positions or at many sites distributed throughout the structure. Here, we probe the regulation of GTPases-protein switches that control signaling through regulated conformational cycling-at residue-level resolution by deep mutagenesis in the native biological network. For the GTPase Gsp1/Ran, we find that 28% of the 4,315 assayed mutations show pronounced gain-of-function responses. Twenty of the sixty positions enriched for gain-of-function mutations are outside the canonical GTPase active site switch regions. Kinetic analysis shows that these distal sites are allosterically coupled to the active site. We conclude that the GTPase switch mechanism is broadly sensitive to cellular allosteric regulation. Our systematic discovery of new regulatory sites provides a functional map to interrogate and target GTPases controlling many essential biological processes.
