Transient septin sumoylation steers a Fir1-Skt5 protein complex between the split septin ring.

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
Ubiquitylation and phosphorylation control composition and architecture of the cell separation machinery in yeast and other eukaryotes. The significance of septin sumoylation on cell separation remained an enigma. Septins form an hourglass structure at the bud neck of yeast cells that transforms into a split septin double ring during mitosis. We discovered that sumoylated septins recruit the cytokinesis checkpoint protein Fir1 to the peripheral side of the septin hourglass just before its transformation into the double-ring configuration. As this transition occurs, Fir1 is released from the septins and seamlessly relocates between the split septin rings through synchronized binding to the scaffold Spa2. Fir1 binds and carries the membrane-bound Skt5 on its route to the division plane where the Fir1-Skt5 complex serves as receptor for chitin synthase III.
