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 ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is responsible for the rapid targeting of proteins for degradation at 26S proteasomes and requires the orchestrated action of E1, E2 and E3 enzymes in a well-defined cascade. F-box proteins (FBPs) are substrate-recruiting subunits of Skp1-cullin1-FBP (SCF)-type E3 ubiquitin ligases that determine which proteins are ubiquitinated. To date, around 70 FBPs have been identified in humans and can be subdivided into distinct families, based on the protein-recruiting domains they possess. The FBXL subfamily is defined by the presence of multiple leucine-rich repeat (LRR) protein-binding domains. But how the 22 FBPs of the FBXL family achieve their individual specificities, despite having highly similar structural domains to recruit their substrates, is not clear. Here, we review and explore the FBXL family members in detail highlighting their structural and functional similarities and differences and how they engage their substrates through their LRRs to adopt unique interactomes.
