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 discovered a tyrosine-reactive GSTP1 inhibitor can function as a molecular glue via a ligand induced protein tethering (LIPT) mechanism. Electrophilic modification of GSTP1 results in disulfide tethering of protein complexes in live cells, and these protein-protein interactions (PPIs) can be reversed using reducing agents. A substantial fraction of GSTP1 tethered interactions represent neo-PPIs that were enriched for splicing factors and nuclear proteins as determined by immunopurification mass spectrometry. LIPT colocalized GSTP1 with serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein 1 (SRRM1), resulting in its redistribution from nuclear speckles to cytoplasmic foci. Cancer cells with enhanced sensitivity to LIPT showed downregulation of metabolic proteins that led to altered lipid metabolism and reduced cell proliferation from GSTP1 molecular glue treatment. Collectively, we show covalent molecular glues of GSTP1 can alter localization of disulfide tethered binding partners and disrupt metabolism in cancer cells.
