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

VprBP (also known as DCAF1) is a recently identified kinase that is overexpressed in cancer cells and serves as a major determinant for epigenetic gene silencing and tumorigenesis. The role of VprBP in driving target gene inactivation has been largely attributed to its ability to mediate histone H2A phosphorylation. However, whether VprBP also phosphorylates non-histone proteins and whether these phosphorylation events drive oncogenic signaling pathways have not been explored. Here we report that serine 367 phosphorylation (S367p) of p53 by VprBP is a key player in attenuating p53 transcriptional and growth suppressive activities. VprBP catalyzes p53S367p through a direct interaction with the C-terminal domain of p53. Mechanistically, VprBP-mediated S367p inhibits p53 function in the wake of promoting p53 proteasomal degradation, because blocking p53S367p increases p53 protein levels, thereby enhancing p53 transactivation. Furthermore, abrogation of VprBP-p53 interaction by p53 acetylation is critical for preventing p53S367p and potentiating p53 function in response to DNA damage. Together, our findings establish VprBP-mediated S367p as a negative regulator of p53 function and identify a previously uncharacterized mechanism by which S367p modulates p53 stability.
