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 E3 ligase E6AP/UBE3A has a dedicated binding site in the 26S proteasome provided by the RAZUL domain of substrate receptor hRpn10/S5a/PSMD4. Guided by RAZUL sequence similarity, we test and demonstrate here that the E6AP AZUL binds transiently to the UBA of proteasomal shuttle factor UBQLN1/2. Despite a weak binding affinity, E6AP AZUL is recruited to UBQLN2 biomolecular condensates in vitro and E6AP interacts with UBQLN1/2 in cellulo. Steady-state and transfer nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) experiments indicate direct interaction of AZUL with UBQLN1 UBA. Intermolecular contacts identified by NOE spectroscopy (NOESY) data were combined with AlphaFold2-Multimer predictions to yield an AZUL:UBA model structure. We additionally identify an oligomerization domain directly adjacent to UBQLN1/2 UBA (UBA adjacent [UBAA]) that is α-helical and allosterically reconfigured by AZUL binding to UBA. These data lead to a model of E6AP recruitment to UBQLN1/2 by AZUL:UBA interaction and provide fundamental information on binding requirements for interactions in condensates and cells.
