ATG16L1 is equipped with two distinct WIPI2-binding sites to drive autophagy.
Article in Autophagy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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 recruitment of ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1 complex to phagophore mediated by the specific interaction between ATG16L1 and WIPI2, is pivotal to the formation of autophagosomes during macroautophagy. Recently, we reported that ATG16L1 contains two distinct WIPI2-binding sites, the previously reported WIPI2-binding site (WBS1), and the newly identified site (WBS2). By determining the crystal structures of WIPI2 with ATG16L1 WBS1 and WBS2 respectively, we uncovered that, unlike ATG16L1 WBS1, ATG16L1 WBS2 and its binding mechanism to WIPI2 are conserved from yeast to mammals. Using cell-based functional assays, we further demonstrated that the integrity of two WIPI2-binding sites of ATG16L1 is essential for normal autophagic flux. In summary, our study provided mechanistic insights into the interaction of two key autophagic proteins, ATG16L1 and WIPI2, and revealed a dual-binding-site mode adopted by ATG16L1 to associate with WIPI2.
