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

Dysregulated epigenetic control and DNA-repair defects are hallmarks of many cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders. ZMYM3, a chromatin-associated zinc-finger protein, orchestrates histone deacetylation, BRCA1-dependent homologous recombination (HR), and cytoskeletal organisation, yet the post-translational mechanisms that govern its activity remain largely unknown. Here we integrate global phosphoproteomics data to define the regulatory landscape of ZMYM3, with a focus on the highly recurrent phosphosite S464 located in its zinc-finger domain. S464 is detected in > 50% of curated human-cell-line datasets and is co-regulated with four upstream kinases (CDK13, HIPK1, CDK9, CLK3) and 15 binary interactors including BRCA1, HDAC6, and SWI/SNF components. Positively co-phosphorylated networks are enriched for chromatin remodelling, mitotic segregation, DNA-damage response, and cytoskeletal dynamics. cProSite analysis of patient tumours reveals striking S464 hyper-phosphorylation in breast and ovarian cancers, correlating with HR-deficiency signatures. ZMYM3 S464 emerges as a phospho-regulatory hub that coordinates epigenetic silencing, HR repair, and mitotic fidelity. Its cancer-type-specific upregulation offers a novel biomarker for HR-deficiency stratification and a therapeutic entry point for modulating BRCA1 function or epigenetic drug sensitivity; functional validation in HR-deficient models is now warranted.
