Proteome-wide copy-number estimation from transcriptomics.
Article in Molecular systems biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Protein copy numbers constrain systems-level properties of regulatory networks, but proportional proteomic data remain scarce compared to RNA-seq. We related mRNA to protein statistically using best-available data from quantitative proteomics and transcriptomics for 4366 genes in 369 cell lines. The approach starts with a protein's median copy number and hierarchically appends mRNA-protein and mRNA-mRNA dependencies to define an optimal gene-specific model linking mRNAs to protein. For dozens of cell lines and primary samples, these protein inferences from mRNA outmatch stringent null models, a count-based protein-abundance repository, empirical mRNA-to-protein ratios, and a proteogenomic DREAM challenge winner. The optimal mRNA-to-protein relationships capture biological processes along with hundreds of known protein-protein complexes, suggesting mechanistic relationships. We use the method to identify a viral-receptor abundance threshold for coxsackievirus B3 susceptibility from 1489 systems-biology infection models parameterized by protein inference. When applied to 796 RNA-seq profiles of breast cancer, inferred copy-number estimates collectively re-classify 26-29% of luminal tumors. By adopting a gene-centered perspective of mRNA-protein covariation across different biological contexts, we achieve accuracies comparable to the technical reproducibility of contemporary proteomics.
