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

HACE1 is an ankyrin repeat (AKR) containing HECT-type E3 ubiquitin ligase that interacts with and ubiquitinates multiple substrates. While HACE1 is a well-known tumor suppressor, its structure and mode of ubiquitination are not understood. The authors present the cryo-EM structures of human HACE1 along with in vitro functional studies that provide insights into how the enzymatic activity of HACE1 is regulated. HACE1 comprises of an N-terminal AKR domain, a middle (MID) domain, and a C-terminal HECT domain. Its unique G-shaped architecture interacts as a homodimer, with monomers arranged in an antiparallel manner. In this dimeric arrangement, HACE1 ubiquitination activity is hampered, as the N-terminal helix of one monomer restricts access to the C-terminal domain of the other. The in vitro ubiquitination assays, hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) analysis, mutagenesis, and in silico modeling suggest that the HACE1 MID domain plays a crucial role along with the AKRs in RAC1 substrate recognition.
