Proteolytically Activated CRAC Effectors through Designed Intramolecular Inhibition.
Article in ACS synthetic biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Highly regulated intracellular calcium entry affects numerous cellular physiological events. External regulation of intracellular calcium signaling presents a great opportunity for the artificial regulation of cellular activity. Calcium entry can be mediated by STIM proteins interacting with Orai calcium channels; therefore, the STIM1-Orai1 pair has become a tool for artificially modulating calcium entry. We report on an innovative genetically engineered protease-activated Orai activator called PACE. CAD self-dimerization and activation were inhibited with a coiled-coil forming peptide pair linked to CAD via a protease cleavage site. PACE generated sustained calcium entry after its activation with a reconstituted split protease. We also generated PACE, whose transcriptional activation of NFAT was triggered by PPV or TEV protease. Using PACE, we successfully activated the native NFAT signaling pathway and the production of cytokines in a T-cell line. PACE represents a useful tool for generating sustained calcium entry to initiate calcium-dependent protein translation. PACE provides a promising template for the construction of links between various protease activation pathways and calcium signaling.
