1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

During cell division, the onset of mitosis is granted by activation of cyclin B-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1), master mitotic kinase, coordinated with inactivation of Cdk1-counteracting phosphatases. PP2A-B55, a major of these phosphatases, is inhibited in mitosis by Arpp-19 and Ensa, two very similar proteins, once phosphorylated by the Cdk1-stimulated kinase Greatwall (Gwl). We show here that Arpp-19 is also phosphorylated in a Cdk1-dependent manner at serine 23, a site missing in mammalian Ensa, in mitotic human cells and dephosphorylated at this site during mitosis exit. Moreover, we found that this phosphorylation control grants chromosome stability since substituting endogenous Arpp-19 with a S23-Arpp-19 phosphorylation-resistant mutant increased the frequency of chromosome segregation errors and accelerated the timing of mitosis exit. Conversely, substitution with a S23-Arpp-19 phosphorylation-mimicking mutant delayed mitosis exit. S23-Arpp-19 dephosphorylation resisted to the potent PP2A inhibitor Okadaic Acid but required the phosphatase Fcp1. Our data unveil a phosphorylation switch that grants timely mitosis exit and chromosome stability.
