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

Ste7p and Mkk1p are MEK (MAPK/ERK kinase) family members that function in the mating and cell integrity signal transduction pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We selected STE7 and MKK1 mutations that stimulated their respective pathways in the absence of an inductive signal. Strikingly, serine-to-proline substitutions at analogous positions in Ste7p (position 368) and Mkk1p (position 386) were recovered by independent genetic screens. Such an outcome suggests that this substitution in other MEKs would exhibit similar properties. The Ste7p-P368 variant has higher basal enzymatic activity than Ste7p but still requires induction to reach full activation. The higher activity associated with Ste7p-P368 allows it to compensate for defects in the cell integrity pathway, but it does so only when it is overproduced or when Ste5p is missing. This behavior suggests that Ste5p, which has been proposed to be a tether for the kinases in the mating pathway, contributes to Ste7p specificity.
