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

Here we describe ProtacID, a flexible BioID (proximity-dependent biotinylation)-based approach to identify PROTAC-proximal proteins in living cells. ProtacID analysis of VHL- and CRBN-recruiting PROTACs targeting a number of different proteins (localized to chromatin or cellular membranes, and tested across six different human cell lines) demonstrates how this technique can be used to validate PROTAC degradation targets and identify non-productive (i.e. non-degraded) PROTAC-interacting proteins, addressing a critical need in the field of PROTAC development. We also demonstrate that ProtacID can be used to characterize native, endogenous multiprotein complexes without the use of antibodies, or modification of the protein of interest with epitope tags or biotin ligase tagging.
