Human E3 ubiquitin ligases: accelerators and brakes for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Review in Biochemical Society transactions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
E3 ubiquitin ligases regulate the composition of the proteome. These enzymes mono- or poly-ubiquitinate their substrates, directly altering protein function or targeting proteins for degradation by the proteasome. In this review, we discuss the opposing roles of human E3 ligases as effectors and targets in the evolutionary battle between host and pathogen, specifically in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Through complex effects on transcription, translation, and protein trafficking, human E3 ligases can either attenuate SARS-CoV-2 infection or become vulnerabilities that are exploited by the virus to suppress the host's antiviral defenses. For example, the human E3 ligase RNF185 regulates the stability of SARS-CoV-2 envelope protein through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, and depletion of RNF185 significantly increases SARS-CoV-2 viral titer (iScience (2023) 26, 106601). We highlight recent advances that identify functions for numerous human E3 ligases in the SARS-CoV-2 life cycle and we assess their potential as novel antiviral agents.
