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

Protein AMPylation is a posttranslational modification with an emerging role in neurodevelopment. In metazoans two highly conserved protein AMP-transferases together with a diverse group of AMPylated proteins have been identified using chemical proteomics and biochemical techniques. However, the function of AMPylation remains largely unknown. Particularly problematic is the localization of thus far identified AMPylated proteins and putative AMP-transferases. We show that protein AMPylation is likely a posttranslational modification of luminal lysosomal proteins characteristic in differentiating neurons. Through a combination of chemical proteomics, gel-based separation of modified and unmodified proteins, and an activity assay, we determine that the modified, lysosomal soluble form of exonuclease PLD3 increases dramatically during neuronal maturation and that AMPylation correlates with its catalytic activity. Together, our findings indicate that AMPylation is a so far unknown lysosomal posttranslational modification connected to neuronal differentiation and it may provide a molecular rationale behind lysosomal storage diseases and neurodegeneration.
