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

The chemical modification of proteins is one of the major mechanisms used to regulate the properties and functions of these macromolecules in the cell. It is therefore of great interest to develop tools to exploit this type of modification for applications in molecular biology, medicine, and biotechnology. Here we present a method of using antibodies to perform post-translational covalent modifications of endogenous proteins in complex environments by exploiting proximity-driven chemistry. The method is based on the ability of antibodies to hold a weakly reactive group close to its intended site of reaction by binding the target protein on a nearby epitope. We characterize this approach by modifying the green fluorescent protein in increasingly complex environments and illustrate its applicability by targeting the disease-associated protein beta-2 microglobulin.
