FLAG-KRAS4B as a Model System for KRAS4B Proteoform and PTM Evaluation by Mass Spectrometry.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Prior analysis of intact and modified protein forms (proteoforms) of KRAS4B isolated from cell lines and tumor samples by top-down mass spectrometry revealed the presence of novel posttranslational modifications (PTMs) and potential evidence of context-specific KRAS4B modifications. However, low endogenous proteoform signal resulted in ineffective characterization, making it difficult to visualize less abundant PTMs or perform follow-up PTM validation using standard proteomic workflows. The NCI RAS Initiative has developed a model system, whereby KRAS4B bearing an N-terminal FLAG tag can be stably expressed within a panel of cancer cell lines. Herein, we present a method for combining immunoprecipitation with complementary proteomic methods to directly analyze N-terminally FLAG-tagged KRAS4B proteoforms and PTMs. We provide detailed protocols for FLAG-KRAS4B purification, proteoform analysis by targeted top-down LC-MS/MS, and validation of abundant PTMs by bottom-up LC-MS/MS with example results.
