Genetically Encoded Microtubule Binders for Single-Cell Interrogation of Cytoskeleton Dynamics and Protein Activity.
Article in ACS sensors, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Microtubule (MT) dynamics is tightly regulated by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) and various post-translational modifications (PTMs) of tubulin. Here, we introduce OligoMT and OligoTIP as genetically encoded oligomeric MT binders designed for real-time visualization and manipulation of MT behaviors within living cells. OligoMT acts as a reliable marker to label the MT cytoskeleton, while OligoTIP allows for live monitoring of the growing MT plus-ends. These engineered MT binders have been successfully utilized to label the MT network, monitor cell division, track MT plus-ends, and assess the effect of tubulin acetylation on the MT stability at the single-cell level. Moreover, OligoMT and OligoTIP can be repurposed as biosensors for quantitative assessment of drug actions and for reporting enzymatic activity. Overall, these engineered MT binders hold promise for advancing the mechanistic dissection of MT biology and have translational applications in cell-based high-throughput drug discovery efforts.
